MÖTLEY CRÜE's NIKKI SIXX: 'I'm Really Anxious To Start Playing New Music'

February 9, 2006

MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki Sixx has told the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer that he is anxious to begin work on the band's new studio album, which is tentatively planned for early 2007. When the band head to the studio in May to work on new material, the focus will return to the rock.

"I just looked down at my list, and I have 45 ideas for songs," said Sixx. "Mick's [Mars, guitar] probably got somewhere between 40 and 100 riffs. Tommy's [Lee, drums] got a ton of ideas.

"I'm really anxious to start playing new music. I'm panting, I want it so bad."

Sixx, the guy who wrote "Too Fast for Love" and "Girls, Girls, Girls", told the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer about how happy he is to have settled down.

"Tommy is single, so he's able to drink and party and do what he wants to do," said Sixx, 45. "But I think in the end, everyone wants to be in love. I'm very fortunate that I'm madly in love and have an amazing family."

That's not to say that his wife — actress Donna D'Errico, who graduated from Pacelli High School in Columbus — has totally tamed the beast.

"I'm sober, and I'm sick," said Sixx. "I'm sick in the head. And all that support and all that great stuff around me allows my artistic side to be even more demented."
