And they were having a meeting. What they were planning on doing was getting rid of Mick and getting another guitarist in and they asked me for my opinion. So, I said if you want my opinion for what it&#8217;s worth, I would say do not try to fix something that is not broken. I said I have seen it before with Lee Kerslake in the Blizzard of Ozz. I said you got a chemistry there; you got a functioning unit, Mick Mars is part of that don&#8217;t Fuc*k it up. Don&#8217;t do it. I think I saved Mick that night because they were serious about getting someone else. Mick was good for the band; he was part of the sound of the delivery of what they did.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/metalwani.com\/2022\/10\/industry-source-confirm-john-5-will-replace-motley-crues-mick-mars-for-upcoming-tours.html?fbclid=IwAR2UO5PitmVj7bZ9WftMlkGL6DGHCm6Yv-OidEWtwrjxUuncM2PEOYVsVpw\">INDUSTRY SOURCE CONFIRM JOHN 5 WILL REPLACE MOTLEY CRUE\u2019S MICK MARS FOR UPCOMING TOURS<\/a><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jimmy Kay and Alan Dixon of The Metal Voice interviewed legendary songwriter and bassist Bob&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":96290,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-96288","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96288","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=96288"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96288\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":96302,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96288\/revisions\/96302"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/96290"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=96288"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=96288"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=96288"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
