While he vehemently denies to all Crue fans that he&#8217;s not been secretly rehearsing again with Nikki, Mick and Tommy, the truth is he is in very tight with Sixx and Crue, and is only pretending to be involved in a fight with Sixx, over his past statements about Corabi not being so easy to work with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Why? Because Vince Neil was already tipped off about his planned ousting. As the story goes, Sixx is done with Neil&#8217;s &#8220;shit show,&#8221;  according to the source. Neil is said to have confronted Sixx in 2020, and Sixx lied to Neil&#8217;s face saying that he was not going to hire John Corabi again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The fact is John was in the studio working with Mick Mars assisting on the legendary guitarist&#8217;s solo album, and that is where the seeds were planted again for him to get back to being involved musically with Crue again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/corabiandmars.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  data-gnlv=\"hey\" src=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/corabiandmars.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-86836\" width=\"681\" height=\"451\" srcset=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/corabiandmars.jpg 960w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/corabiandmars-600x398.jpg 600w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/corabiandmars-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/corabiandmars-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 681px) 100vw, 681px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Corabi and Mars: In the Studio Together&#8230; This Is Not Photoshopped!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">In a 2012 interview,&nbsp;<strong>Mars<\/strong>&nbsp;stated about&nbsp;<strong>M\u00d6TLEY CR\u00dcE<\/strong>&#8216;s 1994 self-titled album: &#8220;I thought that was probably\u2026 To me, and I can only speak for me, <em>I think that was probably the best album we&#8217;ve done.<\/em> Musical-wise, the songs, I felt, were strong.

It was pushed back twice because the &#8216;people in suits&#8217; don&#8217;t want a major disaster on their hands, risking ruining the band&#8217;s reputation forever because their original singer can no longer sing their classic songs properly.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"> Nikki Sixx himself became extremely angry with Vince Neil for not holding up his end of the bargain when they all four agreed to return of out of retirement &#8216;in shape to hit the stage&#8217;, because he had plans to do more stuff with Crue, possibly even one final studio album for the fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>This is where things get really interesting.<\/em> Because Mars and Corabi have been jamming in the studio again in recent years, and the chemistry they share musically is stronger than ever before, they began to kick around the idea of doing more songs together, including Sixx and Lee, but still never fully committed to anything, because of the <em>Neil dilemma<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/VinceNeil-IslandBlockParty-2018-TommySommers-01-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  data-gnlv=\"hey\" src=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/VinceNeil-IslandBlockParty-2018-TommySommers-01-1-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-86860\" width=\"558\" height=\"837\" srcset=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/VinceNeil-IslandBlockParty-2018-TommySommers-01-1-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/VinceNeil-IslandBlockParty-2018-TommySommers-01-1-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/VinceNeil-IslandBlockParty-2018-TommySommers-01-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/VinceNeil-IslandBlockParty-2018-TommySommers-01-1-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/VinceNeil-IslandBlockParty-2018-TommySommers-01-1.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 558px) 100vw, 558px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>The Vince Neil Dilemma: How Do You Deal With Someone Who Is Totally Delusional?<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">So Sixx was <a href=\"https:\/\/metalwani.com\/2021\/09\/has-nikki-sixx-issued-an-ultimatum-to-vince-neil-to-lose-weight-or-he-will-be-fired.html\">forced to issue an ultimatum<\/a> behind closed doors with Neil, and the two nearly came to throwing fists, it got so heated.

The sad fact is that Sixx knows it has nothing to do with his fat loss, it&#8217;s his terrible singing that is the ultimate issue, and there looks to be no possible way to solve this problem because<em> the damage to Neil&#8217;s vocal chords is irreversible.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/JohnCorabiLEGEND-3.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  data-gnlv=\"hey\" src=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/JohnCorabiLEGEND-3.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-86868\" width=\"419\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/JohnCorabiLEGEND-3.jpeg 463w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/JohnCorabiLEGEND-3-222x300.jpeg 222w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 419px) 100vw, 419px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Sixx has continued to mock Corabi in the press, so that he takes Neil&#8217;s attention away from what they are truly doing behind the scenes again with Corabi.
