Tommy Lee
Greek American and Welsh American Heavy Metal musician.
I got it: stay away from cocaine and heroin.
Once the song is done and recorded, I like to go back and then cut the drums, because then I know exactly what the song needs, and what it doesn't need.
Also when I write, I try to write about stuff that everyone gets."
Not off the snare, but I used to fill up a beer cap to the brim and smash the fucker into my nose and play the last two songs of an encore. Definitely yeah
You never know what's going to happen sometimes, or what you think's going to happen never happens, or when you least expect it, the Santana record comes along and just blows up.
I'm happy doing what I'm doing, and if you have that kind of attitude then everything else from there on is a bonus.
That's the good part of having my past follow me, is that sometimes some of that stuff can help.
I don't want a fat mexican woman beating the crap out of my son.
We had toga parties. You name it we did it.
Nikki lives around the corner from me and I see him all the time. We talk a lot, and of course we're still friends. That was our baby, Motley Crue, we put that band together.
At least for me, everything I need is right inside here. I don't need anything.
I also did some jail time a few years ago. Spent a whole summer in jail reading books. I pumped a ton of new knowledge and new thinking into myself.
It sounds kind of strange, but Jail time was almost a good experience for me.
Whether it's crazy, fun stuff or bad- my life has been really fun and really exciting definitely never been dull.
Whenever I write, I only write about what I know or what I have experienced or feeling.
I find that doing the drums last, coming from a drum history, really works well for me.
I want to hear melody I want people to sing to my music.
When I was a little kid, I took tap and ballet. I've always loved to dance. I'm a rhythm machine.
I check into hotels under my alias, Mr. Happy.
It's all about the music. For me, that's truly what I live for. Just music constantly. Always listening to, writing, or playing music. That's definitely me.
