Complaints erupted from fans and critics that Lee and Sixx were turning up the volume on the drums and bass to drown out the horrendous singing by Neil. In turn, this pissed off Mars because fans had difficulty hearing his epic riffs and trademark shredding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The major turmoil in the band all started back in rehearsals for these concerts when Tommy Lee is alleged to have been attacked by Vince Neil for using derogatory terms against him, such as<strong> &#8220;Fat Boy&#8221;<\/strong> and <strong>&#8220;Vince Meal.&#8221;<\/strong> The non-stop body shaming by all accounts is what led to Lee&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wearethepit.com\/2022\/06\/apparently-vince-neil-broke-tommy-lees-ribs-after-lee-body-shamed-him\/\">subsequent beatdown<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"http:\/\/metalsludge.tv\/motley-five-industry-rumors-are-circulating-that-john-5-could-be-new-guitarist-in-motley-crue-replacing-an-aging-mick-mars-for-future-shows\/\">MOTLEY FIVE \u2026 Industry Rumors are Circulating that John 5 could be New Guitarist in Motley Crue<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Lee was so upset over the altercation that he threatened to quit the band, but due to his contract was not able to get paid unless he performed at least three songs with the glam metal band each night. The false story about Lee falling down some stairs while carrying luggage was concocted to divert attention from the bad blood going on between Lee and Neil. The Metal Den was first to break the story to the world, and it has since amassed millions of views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Definition of charity: giving Vince Neil 1\/4 of the proceeds from Motley Crue\u2019s portion of the stadium tour\u2019s $.
