Mötley Crüe vocalist Vince Neil had a recent interview with Miles Schuman of Rock ‘N’ Roll Fantasy Camp in Las Vegas and unearthed a never-told-before thing about the legendary Rock band, KISS.
Here is what Neil said:
“I think we all did [have film and TV aspirations], back in the early days of Motley Crue – you remember the movie The Lost Boys? They were gonna put Motley Crue as those vampire guys. Thank God they didn’t do it.
I’ve done a little bit of film work and those guys work too hard. I rather just be on stage and sing over what those guys go through.
KISS has influenced almost everybody and has been around since the early seventies. I mean, I was in high school crankin’ KISS, you know?
With Motley Crue though, we had a lot of influences and it was off of course KISS with the theatrics but it was also the New York Dolls, the Sex Pistols and it was on from there. It was KISS’ stage theatrics absolutely.”
