Look. I've had people close to me affected by these afflictions. Lost loved ones and such. So, I'm not insesitive to these illnesses. I haven't seen any of Mick Mars' latest appearance but have read many people saying that he looks sick. What's going on with this dude? Someone with some insight please tell me
 
Doesn't he have some kind of progressive bone disease? I think that his bones keep growing over each other, fusing the joints between them. Or something. What am i, a doctor?!
 
Can this dude finish the tour?
But, why would they book the tour this soon if they didn't think he could do it?
Not that I ever gave a rat's ass about Motley, but if they pull a bait and switch, and get a replacement AFTER tix went on sale, that's even lamer than the last KISS tour, at least we (KISS fans) knew we were seeing a scab peter and a fake ace. But if Motley switch at this point, it will reek of selling tix w/ Mars old, scary face knowing full well he wouldn't make it, and then pulling a dirty trick.

Signed. Apart from the Girls Girls Girls video which I used to like when I was a young boy.
I think I do have the first two records somewhere in the basement. If they could have maintained that sound, who knows... My other problem w/ Motley is that Nikki Sixx seems to think that Motley is "legendary" and belongs in the same league as AC/DC, KISS, The Rolling Stones, and Aerosmith. Hell, I wouldn't even put them in the 2nd tier (as I call 'em) of legends like Cheap Trick or Twisted Sister or Thin Lizzy. To me Motley's legacy is simply as an 80's act like Poison or Quiet Riot, which means it matters nothing to me.

I certainly agree with that. I mean, in my book they are not in the same universe, much less in the same league as Thin Lizzy. And to be honest I like some of the Poison and QR songs much more.
