Duff05 Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 I have just downloaded Motley Crue- Wild Side video and it is credited as 1987. I was just wondering does anyone know where this video was shot and was it before or after Nikki had his overdose and 'died'?Would have been great to have been at that concert just to see Tommy Lee spinning and playing!

IzzySixx Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 im not sure where the video was shot but im pretty sure that it was before nikki's overdose. he overdosed after the girls girls girls tour in 87 and i assume that the wildside video is a concert from that tour.

yesilikegnr Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 I'm almost positive that the Wild Side video was shot before his overdose, but I'm not sure....And you know I couldn't resist replying to a thread with Nikki Sixx in the title.

cold*heartbreaker Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Yeah, the Wild Side vid was before Nikki overdosed. I'm positive it was after the Girls, Girls, Girls tour that he did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mötley_Crüe Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Hmm, I've checked every Crue site and I can't figure it out.Nikki had his overdose in the Middle of the Girls Girls Girls tour In 1987, Wildside must have been shot before Because it was Shot quickly after the tour had started.That's just my formula.

Mötley_Crüe Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Yes!18/7/87Video footage for the upcoming single Wild Side is shot during the show at Market Square Arena in Indianapolis, Indiana.22/12/87 Nikki Sixx flies back into Los Angeles International airport from Tokyo, where he gets high in the limo that picks him up to take him to his recently purchased house, that former girlfriend Nicole chose 18 months ago. He looks in his mirror and sees himself disintegrating; his hair falling out in clumps, needle tracks down his arms, and a puffy alcoholic face.Wanting to escape his loneliness with a night on the town, he calls his friends Robbin Crosby from Ratt and Slash from Guns N' Roses. Nikki's silver limousine picks up Robbin from his home and they head to the Franklin Plaza Hotel where the homeless Guns N' Roses stay. He greets Slash at the room's door, the one next to Dave Ellefson from Megadeth's room, with a bottle of whiskey and an antique beaver-hair top hat that he had thrown up on in the limo on the way. They drive to the Cathouse club, scoring and blasting heroin that they pick up from Robbin's dealer on the way, before heading back to the hotel later with some fans following them from the club. Robbin's dealer meets them there with some Persian heroin he just got. With Slash passed out on the couch, the dealer ties Nikki off and shoots him up, which turns him blue in an instant. The dealer jumps out of the hotel room window and runs down the street yelling out that he just killed Nikki Sixx.Steve Adler from Guns N' Roses soon comes in with Slash's girlfriend to find Nikki collapsed and turned blue, so they start beating on his chest to revive him, before dragging him to the shower to try cold water instead. Adler starts slapping him in the face with the cast on his broken arm, before getting Slash's girlfriend to call the paramedics, as their last effort to save his life from an overdose.Wooh!
