Ex-Crue lead vocalist John Corabi<\/strong> points out that “Until Mick releases an official statement himself” he is not taking the band’s narrative as the truth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On October 28, 2022 via Daily Mail:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“A representative for the 71-year-old musician, who is a founding member of the hard rock group, spoke to Variety about the decision.<\/strong>“\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This suspicious canned statement sent up red flags immediately. Who exactly is the representative? The article gives us no name of the source, and still does not issue an official statement from the man himself: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

MICK MARS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is not the first time Sixx got a hard on to fire his guitarist. Believe it or not, former OZZY bassist Bob Daisley stated in a recent interview <\/a>that he saved Mick from being fired by the Crue at the height of their fame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It would be like trying to replace Ringo in The Beatles with John Bonham or Ginger Baker,” Bob Daisley said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Crue’s camp appears so desperate to put out this fire, that they even enlisted an industry operative from within their own circle of friends to try and keep the cover up going. DEF LEPPARD’s drummer Rick Allen claims to be close friends with Mars in recent years, as if that means anything.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Allen is part of a major world tour that started with 36 North American tour dates DEF LEPPARD did as co-headliner with the Crue. The first run of dates earned over $173,000,000<\/a>. So, these guys are all about one thing, and that is protecting their cash grab. Allen is nothing more than a Sixx puppet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bottom line is that Mick his yet to make an official statement to the press and say goodbye to the fans. He was not allowed to say anything from the stage, nor was there any kind of honoring his career with a ceremony or tribute to Mars at the last two gigs the Crue performed in the USA in Atlantic City, NJ, where vocalist Vince Neil got busted fake singing along to a backing track<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

John Corabi is about as close as one can get to Mick Mars, and even purportedly worked on the legend’s forthcoming debut solo album. He is adamant in his stance that Nikki Sixx fired Mars<\/a>, for not contributing enough to the band in recent decades. Ultimately, the elder guitar hero is moving forward with releasing his debut solo album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep in mind, it took Sixx and company 11 days to finally admit that TMD’s reporting about a source named ‘Jason Green’ claiming Mick Mars was being replaced <\/a>was dead on the money correct. It was not until the story about Mars’ ousting hit all the major iHeart radio station sites nationally who picked up TMD’s reporting, that Sixx finally made the move to admit TMD was correct and Sixx was indeed hiding the truth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
