Sorry its a bit off the subject but I could NOT get this Def Lep classic outta my head and STILL ...40 years of "On Through the Night" coming on March 14th, 2020.God Bless Slash and Nikki and Jenn ..Great podcast!
It wasn't Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, etc who inspired me to play the guitar. .the people responsible were my Dad, Brad Whitford, and Joe Perry. I have much respect for Slash and Nikki as well. My brother and I got to see Slash with Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators open up for Aerosmith on 7/16/14. Slash came out on stage and played Mama Kin with Aerosmith. The highlight of the day was when my brother and I got to meet Steven Tyler and Joe Perry.
We'll to be honest Slash started out in the 80s, continued his success through the mid 90s and has even continued in the 2000s with Velvet and Myles Kennedy for 2010 and upwards.
Nicole Talbot ...yeah, saw them in D.C.....fucking amazing. I definitely got a little glassy eyed when Paradise City started. I was born in Feb1984 and my first memories of any music is Guns..my first music i bought was Welcome to the Jungle and Tom Petty-Free Fallin...
they are supposed to come on june 9th (here in Vienna/Austria) but due to the pandemic... i could cry!! because last i have seen them was 1992 (or was it 94? sorry cant remeber

I'm a 38 year old dude, but I'm using my mom's Google account to write this comment, so please disregard the name. I met my hero, Slash outside of Irving Plaza in April, 1995. I was a freshman in high school, and Irving Plaza was like 3 blocks away from my school, and I saw that Slash's Snakepit was gonna be playing in a few days. It was a school night and I didn't know if I'd be allowed to go, and I was 14, and shy, and didn't even bother asking my mom if I could go. So I brought a Polaroid camera to school with me, a couple of posters, and a marker. I got out of school at 3, and went to Irving Plaza, and the tour bus had already dropped the guys off. There was a litt,e hang out room above the place and Slash came out the window and said hi to me. It was just me on the street corner. He was peeling an orange and threw half of it down to me to eat. He then threw me a pick and told me to hang on and he came downstairs with Gilby and we took some pics and he signed all my shit.we hung out for like 10 minutes. He was drinking a vodka and cranberry juice. He must have been 29. He then invited me to go with him and Gilby and Matt to Electric Lady studio to hang out before they had to come back to do the show, and I pussied out. Worst decision I ever made. But I was happy to meet them. I still have my pic and my polaroids and the signed poster. He was such a good guy. We're both old now. And I'm sad that be doesn't remember the 90's but I could make him remember by telling him that he was wearing the Tales from the Crypt shirt and smoking Gitanes cigarettes.
There is no excuse for not going to the studio with them!!! You possibly denied the best party time of your life. You should have to run laps for your foolish decision, if not, A worse punishment. It's true youth is wasted on the young!!!!!!
You have some Epic memories! I was screwed by a " best friend" on tickets to see Motley Crue on the "Girls" tour with GNR "Appetite" opening up. I watched the limo pull away from high school to go to the show. Talk about beyond butthurt!!! He knew I didn't get paid until the next week. He knew I would have given him the money for the tickets for my twin and I. That was in '87. I still have yet to forgive my "best friend" for that one. I'm really happy to hear stories like this. Godspeed!
Man, i just love these stories with our idols, wich they are just natural, and you just interact with then for a while. Its a really rare thing to happens, and i am so happy to hear that some people had the change to do this
I remember listening to this while I was driving home from work one night. It was an hour drive but the interview was so good it just felt like minutes. Honestly, I didn't want it to end.

THE STRUGGLE IS REAL *CATER* 0 seconds ago *****NIKKI SIXX PLEASE HEAR CATER HE SOUNDS LIKE YOUR BOY THE STRUGGLE IS REAL *CATER This is my youtube page
@@Ryu_theshibainuMaybe if they just start playing goid instrumental stuff, other musicians, drummers, vocalists will hear them play and think 'Hey, this is just so cool' and they could see themselves playing or singing with such a group and try to join them... Or, during purely instrumental gigs to promote themselves as live musicians, they could joke about needing a good drummer or vocalist(s) to help them and ask if anybody in the audience ould like to give it a shot there and then. The reaction of the rest of the crowd would soon tell you which ones are the best ones, if any, to try and recruit to join the new band. Give them a go, have a few jam sessions, then try them out at other venues.
I hope you continue to do this work Nikki. Not only is this entertaining I think it is very important to preserve this information for history. You do have a gift for being one of the The Librarians of Babel.
I had a meet and greet with slash in memphis,tn when he started slashes snake pit they did three days practicing for the tour i shock hes hand and i had him sign a les paul for me he didn’t only sign it lol he drew a topHAT and sckullbone then he signed slash under the skull bone it was AWSOME ,i was shacking like a leaf when i walkED up and shock he’s hand lol i was just a kid then, i was really into guns and roses so it was like walking up to god lol It was a awsome show slash kicked some girl in the face for grabbing hes guitar while he was playing live ,lol he didnt mean to kick her in the face he just kicked and her head was theRE ,bodyguards took her out of the show IT WAS GREAT SHOW AND WEEKEND
Serves her right. She should have known better than to try and touch her idol or their music gear but you often see this even in suburban pub gigs, with people half drunk, holding drinks that could easily spill onto e electronic music gear. Electricity and liquids is not a very safe combination. Or they stand right next to a blasting loud speaker as the band plays and then wonder how come their hearing is shot. I once saw a vocalist stop in the middle of a song to go such up some half drunk jerk Security had not noticed, resting his glass on beer on the band's equipment. He then resumed singing after saying 'Sorry about that in terruption, folks".
I miss SIxx sense so much, back when I was in high school, whether we were in the car or chilling at the house, we always had the show on in the background, because where I’m from, we don’t have a single good rock station. We had an ok one back then but at night, SIxx sense would come on and we would hear great music and a great show too. The only thing that sucked was the commercial. I hope Nikki starts a podcast soon. He needs one
Nikki has defiantly had his own awakening, he is such a down to earth kind genuine human with only good things to say, Slash is so kind aswell and so are lots of musicians I hate how much they get alienated
It sure was some crazy times back in the day. I lived in THE San Fernando Valley. I sat THE 'cause it was the notorious valley just 20 minutes from the city of Angels and the Hollywood Strip. Awesome to hear and see these 3 rockers still alive after years of that messed up "H" and hard drugs...for real! But unfortunately alot of musicians and actors didn't make it. RIP....but on a lighter note it's good to be alive and off drugs and alcohol! :-)
Nikki, what a Great last show! Consider interviewing again in the future, you are not only my Favorite Musician ever... but also my Favorite Interviewer! Bless you Nikki, you inspired me to get sober and my Music has got serious and people have taken me seriously, I am taking off slowly but surely... Keep inspired Nikki and keep inspiring! 🤘🏻
I watched The Dirt and was hooked, way down the rabbit hole I went, Tommy, Nikki, Vince, Mick, the guys who raised me, when I think about growing up in the 80's everything is a blur, all I remember is the music, so cool, Slash, Joe... Big Love to all!
when genius people get aged, they still look charismatic and cool. I love both of them! they are very famous but they have good personality and always inspiring.
My favorite thing about Slash is that he's so damn humble. He couldve easily been like Axl where he acts like a pampered rockstar but he seems super cool!
I like Slash's quiet,shy introverted personality . I can relate to that. But, being Bipolar, like Axl is, I can also relate well to his wild, passionate, somewhat extreme personality that knows no limits or fear... Axl seems to me like a pretty sensible, smart, creative, strong minded person and pretty decent and ethical, under his wild, larger than life, charismatic presence snd exterior.
The first time I heard Rocks was playing while in a band at age 18. The guitarist was a huge Aerosmith/Derringer/Peter Frampton/Zeppelin fan, and had those albums taped and stapled all over his walls. He was a year younger and knocked me out with his ability to actually play the music from those albums and artists. He went on to have an amazing career in music, and is still at it to this day. Whenever I hear Back In The Saddle, I'm back in that rehearsal room, listening to it played through our PA system speakers, powered by an Altec amp.
Nikki I’ve seen you throughout the years. I recently watched the Netflix movie The Dirt. Quite a story. Not some of the best memories for you. Never knew the addiction. You seem like such an awesome and genuine guy now. Appreciate your show.
Nikki and slash are two legends. And after all they have been though they seem so humble and together. Cool dudes or what. I'm from London and I love the way they always big up bands from the UK especially London
Awesomeness. 3 of my favorite rock stars from 3 of my favorite bands. Great last interview. Slash was the perfect choice. Joe Perry too. Happy New Year to all and all that the new year brings. Really gonna miss you Nikki. You are amazing and such an inspiration. Rock on🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Back in the Saddle AgaiN .I loved it when I first heard in in 79 & it has taken on new meaning as a musician . That riff was so chunky & grooving & cool. ... And still if I listen to the song,i wonder .... Did Steve have any vocal chords left after that song. - THIS is why there arenr many people or bands who try to copy that song. Sign of a great song.
Awesome show guys, Nikki and Slash. Couldn't be a more interesting conversation, you guys lived it. Better to have lived it and survived than never trying it and grind life out...
Two of my Mt Rusmore rockers!! Ozzy Hetfield Plant are my other 3! Slash I was there Oct. 2016 in Philly at the Link. Split stadium-sized screens Slash in the right and Rose on the left. Slash was ENTIRE SHOW! I HAVE EVERY SOUND YOUR GUITAR EVER MADE ON ANY GNR ALBUM MEMORIZED TO THE POINT I CAN SING EVERY LYRIC AND SING EVERY GUITAR SOUND TOO!! NIKKI LOVED THE "DIARIES" BOOK...GOT ME THRU MY 8YR BID! READ IT 23 TIMES! SLASH AND FERGIE ONE OF THE GREATEST ROCK SONGS EVER RECORDED BTW! 🤘🤘💯
Losing the plot of your story as a result of your past and not being awkward about it. Nikki Sixx is really able to have a 'different' level of interviews with his guests. This one is a gem!
Just seen this, somebody sent it to me. I love it. I don't care how long ago it was. Fantastic. Reminds me of decades ago, WOW. I heard Slash say Far Out. Everybody said that back then. Didn't know anyone still said it. Reminds me of hanging out with friends, mates, don't even want to tell all the goings on, you know. Lol
Hey Nikki..im from argentina and saw the show in 2009...mmen im still lookin for my brain... i discover this amazing master class of this amzing inspiration...thankz for share ...i've leanrn so much...from argentina i salute you...
Wait why is Nikki stopping this again? I just started watching the video interviews and this is amazing. It’s like Joe Rogan Podcast for the rock world. I guess I never followed it before because I didn’t know where to listen to it. They should have been uploading RUclips videos like this from the beginning man just like Joe Rogan does. Anyways it’s kind of a bummer to see it go because I feel like with the RUclips channel this is really taking off now
Jeff Myron Nikki announded back in October he's finishing Sixx Sense to concentrate on other projects. He's turning the Heroin Diaries into a Broadway musical among other things.
Nikki has a lot of things on the horizon. A HD musical, the tv show he's doing, plus his photo exhibit is about to go on tour. I think he's wanting to focus on all of that and didn't want to commit to doing the radio show when he couldn't do it full on.
I’m so happy I have the time now to hear stuff like this! Like listening to Nikki & Slash now is so much more appreciated bc I’m clean & sober for so many years that it means more. I don’t know, it’s hard to explain but ya, listening to this interview means so much more to me now. Working, going to College & being a weekend warrior was so busy that I didn’t have time for anything else. Being a Teacher it’s like your always continuing education so I barely had time for concerts so that’s what I did. Now, I have more time to listen to this rich & beautiful stuff & still go to concerts! If I have to retire early bc my body can’t keep up w/the daily grind & energy it takes w/20 young children etc... it takes for my profession. A series of really serious surgeries has finally slowed me down to be able to appreciate interviews like this & I’m really diggin’ it!! I saw Slash w/Miles Kennedy & the Conspirators open for Aerosmith in 2014 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre at George, Washington. What an iconic experience!! What’s not to love about the phenomenal & talented Slash & Joe Perry talking w/Nikki Sixx!!! I’m such a guitar & metal fan... this is great listening to these guys just talk about the years & music. I could say so much more but ya, this is great! I can’t believe I’m finding this & Nikki’s not doing the radio show anymore!! Bummed 😞 but I’m really enjoying all these interviews, especially this show! Literally Joe Perry is my favorite guitar player of all time. Aerosmith fan since the ‘70’s 😉 lol My first tat I had inked on my stomach & it’s the Aerosmith logo!! Okay... nuff said... I’m going to listen to this again to hear what I missed while making this comment. Lol, I could say so much more but ya, being clean & sober it’s so much more meaningful to me. I got clean in ‘89 when I chose to have a career Teaching but drinking after work & hittin’ it hard on the weekends it’s like black & white life w/barely any time for the gray areas! Especially after I graduated from college while working full time etc... & now it’s a completely different & slowed down life to snails pace. I love veggin’ out to these interviews!! Sad to learn this is the last show... 😏 but, it’s really great 😎

Yes! You can tell that Slash and Joe know each other and Joe probably only agreed to be on the Podcast with Slash. He never was particularly interested in Nikki or his bands music.
what slash said about different decades being related to a certain kind of music is so true! and actually makes me sad because like slash said nowadays there's not such a thing which tells a lot how music is becoming crap without bound or love of any kind, i really hope someday we can talk about "2020's music was so cool" i hardly doubt that though
Slash was so right about that decades being related to music etc statement. Part of the 1970s were great. The 1980's will always be my favorite decade personally. Loved everything about it. Not just the music. 1990's runs a close second. After 2000 it was over. Nothing compares.
@@MichaelGiordano777 man maybe because you’re old? Lmfaooo what make you think that you would have anything nice to say about the that, you were probably a grown adult. I bet the older people in your gen said that about the 70s and 80s, but for us gen Z and millennials the 2000s were pretty cool
So funny seeing these cats that i knew back in the day in Hollywood, now talking about their houses and cars, guitars and all..My band, Antix played with Slash's band, Hollywood Rose a couple times at Madam Wong's back in the 80's ( where i used to play a Firebird btw ) ..And i also knew Nikki very well back when he was in the band London and then when he put together Motley Crue.. I knew these guys during the struggle years...unfortunately, drugs and alcohol derailed my career...These cats used to come and see me play...and now its sad cause I've reached out to both of them, just to say "hey how u been?"...and never get a response...Anyway, it's good to see that they're alive and well
As a kid in the 90's, I kinda always looked at bands as being sorta foes and against each other vying for that top spot as far as fame so to see like Slash and Nikki Sixx chillin and being so close as friends is very cool and kinda trippy...lol
I honestly don't know which of these two I would rather meet... they're both absolute fucking legends and embodiments of Rock N Roll.... I dunno how these guys are still alive if you look at the shit they have survived! absolute LEGENDS!!!
Slash and Nikki not remembering how/where they met for the first time is one of the most logical things I’ve ever heard.
They probably dont remember how they became rockstars anyway
I would of been disappointed if they did remember.
@@lasse1436 I think Slash has some what of an idea considering he wrote an autobiography of his life and how he became famous.
@@Laga98 he wrote it with a co-author. Don't get me wrong, it's one of my favorite biographies, but think about how well you would write your own autobiography. Might need some help.

Whos gonna be the drummer and who will be on vocals for this new band? '3 Shades of Cool'
The Drummer from Spinal Tap
Neil Peart
@@Ryu_theshibainuMaybe if they just start playing goid instrumental stuff, other musicians, drummers, vocalists will hear them play and think 'Hey, this is just so cool' and they could see themselves playing or singing with such a group and try to join them... Or, during purely instrumental gigs to promote themselves as live musicians, they could joke about needing a good drummer or vocalist(s) to help them and ask if anybody in the audience ould like to give it a shot there and then. The reaction of the rest of the crowd would soon tell you which ones are the best ones, if any, to try and recruit to join the new band. Give them a go, have a few jam sessions, then try them out at other venues.
I hope you continue to do this work Nikki. Not only is this entertaining I think it is very important to preserve this information for history. You do have a gift for being one of the The Librarians of Babel.
Slash should have his own podcast
Wow. That was one of the best interviews I've seen with Slash.
I had a meet and greet with slash in memphis,tn when he started slashes snake pit they did three days practicing for the tour i shock hes hand and i had him sign a les paul for me he didn’t only sign it lol he drew a topHAT and sckullbone then he signed slash under the skull bone it was AWSOME ,i was shacking like a leaf when i walkED up and shock he’s hand lol i was just a kid then, i was really into guns and roses so it was like walking up to god lol It was a awsome show slash kicked some girl in the face for grabbing hes guitar while he was playing live ,lol he didnt mean to kick her in the face he just kicked and her head was theRE ,bodyguards took her out of the show IT WAS GREAT SHOW AND WEEKEND
Haha!! awesome , hey we added are first song ever and would love your feedback🥰🥰🤘🤘
I saw them on that tour in 1995, great tour. I loved their first album
Serves her right. She should have known better than to try and touch her idol or their music gear but you often see this even in suburban pub gigs, with people half drunk, holding drinks that could easily spill onto e electronic music gear. Electricity and liquids is not a very safe combination. Or they stand right next to a blasting loud speaker as the band plays and then wonder how come their hearing is shot. I once saw a vocalist stop in the middle of a song to go such up some half drunk jerk Security had not noticed, resting his glass on beer on the band's equipment. He then resumed singing after saying 'Sorry about that in terruption, folks".
Jus read Nikki’s updated book. It was awesomely inspirational. Sixx is 💗a great person.
I miss SIxx sense so much, back when I was in high school, whether we were in the car or chilling at the house, we always had the show on in the background, because where I’m from, we don’t have a single good rock station. We had an ok one back then but at night, SIxx sense would come on and we would hear great music and a great show too. The only thing that sucked was the commercial. I hope Nikki starts a podcast soon. He needs one
Nikki has defiantly had his own awakening, he is such a down to earth kind genuine human with only good things to say, Slash is so kind aswell and so are lots of musicians I hate how much they get alienated
Nice talk! Slash has a soothing conversation manner. Nikki's gd energy! Partying was big in 70s-80's, for many.
It sure was some crazy times back in the day. I lived in THE San Fernando Valley.
I sat THE 'cause it was the notorious valley just 20 minutes from the city of Angels and the Hollywood Strip. Awesome to hear and see these 3 rockers still alive after years of that messed up "H" and hard drugs...for real! But unfortunately alot of musicians and actors didn't make it. RIP....but on a lighter note it's good to be alive and off drugs and alcohol! :-)
Love when people say stuff like tha, lol. No one partied a lot in the 90's or after
@@allsystemsgo8678
It was socially acceptable back in the 70,80 and 90s.. it’s not anymore , that’s a fact and a sad one for real..
Nikki, what a Great last show!
Consider interviewing again in the future, you are not only my Favorite Musician ever... but also my Favorite Interviewer!
Bless you Nikki, you inspired me to get sober and my Music has got serious and people have taken me seriously, I am taking off slowly but surely... Keep inspired Nikki and keep inspiring!
🤘🏻
Two of my favorites. Nikki is such a great interviewer and can see things through the fans perspective, which is amazing.
how am I just now discovering this? Amazing! Three rock legends...listening to them talk is (almost) like listening to one of their songs...
I watched The Dirt and was hooked, way down the rabbit hole I went, Tommy, Nikki, Vince, Mick, the guys who raised me, when I think about growing up in the 80's everything is a blur, all I remember is the music, so cool, Slash, Joe... Big Love to all!
Rita Yanovitsky The book is so much better
@NYC3794 precisely what I was going to type recently repurchased it on Ebay.........first time I read it completed it in three days!
when genius people get aged, they still look charismatic and cool. I love both of them! they are very famous but they have good personality and always inspiring.
My favorite thing about Slash is that he's so damn humble. He couldve easily been like Axl where he acts like a pampered rockstar but he seems super cool!
I like Slash's quiet,shy introverted personality . I can relate to that. But, being Bipolar, like Axl is, I can also relate well to his wild, passionate, somewhat extreme personality that knows no limits or fear... Axl seems to me like a pretty sensible, smart, creative, strong minded person and pretty decent and ethical, under his wild, larger than life, charismatic presence snd exterior.
Glad both of these legend are still alive
The first time I heard Rocks was playing while in a band at age 18. The guitarist was a huge Aerosmith/Derringer/Peter Frampton/Zeppelin fan, and had those albums taped and stapled all over his walls. He was a year younger and knocked me out with his ability to actually play the music from those albums and artists. He went on to have an amazing career in music, and is still at it to this day. Whenever I hear Back In The Saddle, I'm back in that rehearsal room, listening to it played through our PA system speakers, powered by an Altec amp.
siskokidd wow, its amazing how similar music is to a time capsule isnt it! When were you 18?
I'm going to have to watch all of these episodes now.
Men best episode ever ❤️ could listen to Nikki Sixx and Slash all day
We need the show back
Nikki I’ve seen you throughout the years. I recently watched the Netflix movie The Dirt.
Quite a story. Not some of the best memories for you. Never knew the addiction.
You seem like such an awesome and genuine guy now. Appreciate your show.
darn i thought i was only one liked that song its so good its classic
south station blues !!!!!!
Man, I hope you guys bring this show back! Miss this show👍
Awesome interview, real shame it's the last one.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE
Nikki and slash are two legends. And after all they have been though they seem so humble and together. Cool dudes or what. I'm from London and I love the way they always big up bands from the UK especially London
Two of my favorite people in the world. I can listen to them shoot the shit for hours. Alot of stories and wisdom.
Awesomeness. 3 of my favorite rock stars from 3 of my favorite bands. Great last interview. Slash was the perfect choice. Joe Perry too. Happy New Year to all and all that the new year brings. Really gonna miss you Nikki. You are amazing and such an inspiration. Rock on🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Mad to hear slash say that because I've Had the same conversation about decades too and it's totally true
it is nice to see true rock stars hang together, they are an inspiration to life.
Great to hear honestly and sincerely appreciate the opportunity to hear from you guys
I remember in high school couldn't wait to finish ,then after a few Years an wishing I was back in school, the best years of ur life !!
Back in the Saddle AgaiN .I loved it when I first heard in in 79 & it has taken on new meaning as a musician . That riff was so chunky & grooving & cool. ... And still if I listen to the song,i wonder .... Did Steve have any vocal chords left after that song. - THIS is why there arenr many people or bands who try to copy that song. Sign of a great song.
Awesome show guys, Nikki and Slash. Couldn't be a more interesting conversation, you guys lived it.
Better to have lived it and survived than never trying it and grind life out...
I would love to be able to talk to them. I am glad they are sober and seem so content in their lives, yet so serious about their work ..love it !! 👍👍
Two of my Mt Rusmore rockers!! Ozzy Hetfield Plant are my other 3! Slash I was there Oct. 2016 in Philly at the Link. Split stadium-sized screens Slash in the right and Rose on the left. Slash was ENTIRE SHOW! I HAVE EVERY SOUND YOUR GUITAR EVER MADE ON ANY GNR ALBUM MEMORIZED TO THE POINT I CAN SING EVERY LYRIC AND SING EVERY GUITAR SOUND TOO!! NIKKI LOVED THE "DIARIES" BOOK...GOT ME THRU MY 8YR BID! READ IT 23 TIMES! SLASH AND FERGIE ONE OF THE GREATEST ROCK SONGS EVER RECORDED BTW! 🤘🤘💯
What a great interview. Just enjoyed every single second of it. Thanks Nikki for this amazing work. Greatings from Brazil
Losing the plot of your story as a result of your past and not being awkward about it. Nikki Sixx is really able to have a 'different' level of interviews with his guests. This one is a gem!
You guys lived the life many of us couldn't and made it through it. Peace and light
wow first show i have watched was the last one feels bad man i could listen to this for hours
Just seen this, somebody sent it to me. I love it. I don't care how long ago it was. Fantastic. Reminds me of decades ago, WOW. I heard Slash say Far Out. Everybody said that back then. Didn't know anyone still said it. Reminds me of hanging out with friends, mates, don't even want to tell all the goings on, you know. Lol
if i ever got a chance to have a conversation with any of these guys I would lose my mind three of the bands ive been listening to since I was a kid
What a treat.... Sixx and Slash then Joe fkn Perry..... Killer interviews btw
This interview is really good. Honesty and reality from both of them. Amazing final show Nikki
super sad this show ended! I live for Sixx Sense!. amazing interview Nikki
Hey Nikki..im from argentina and saw the show in 2009...mmen im still lookin for my brain... i discover this amazing master class of this amzing inspiration...thankz for share ...i've leanrn so much...from argentina i salute you...
Love your work Nikki! Have a great year ahead throughout 2018 😀 \m/
Wait why is Nikki stopping this again? I just started watching the video interviews and this is amazing. It’s like Joe Rogan Podcast for the rock world.
I guess I never followed it before because I didn’t know where to listen to it. They should have been uploading RUclips videos like this from the beginning man just like Joe Rogan does.
Anyways it’s kind of a bummer to see it go because I feel like with the RUclips channel this is really taking off now
I'm only guessing here, but i think maybe nikki will be too busy with that canadian talent show he's doing???
IDK
Jeff Myron Nikki announded back in October he's finishing Sixx Sense to concentrate on other projects. He's turning the Heroin Diaries into a Broadway musical among other things.
Nikki has a lot of things on the horizon. A HD musical, the tv show he's doing, plus his photo exhibit is about to go on tour. I think he's wanting to focus on all of that and didn't want to commit to doing the radio show when he couldn't do it full on.
Speaking of which, Nikki should go on Joe Rogan
U think he deeded more time to direct the movie the dirt that just launched
Just love all of your interviews, Nikki......peace.....xo
I’m so happy I have the time now to hear stuff like this! Like listening to Nikki & Slash now is so much more appreciated bc I’m clean & sober for so many years that it means more. I don’t know, it’s hard to explain but ya, listening to this interview means so much more to me now. Working, going to College & being a weekend warrior was so busy that I didn’t have time for anything else. Being a Teacher it’s like your always continuing education so I barely had time for concerts so that’s what I did. Now, I have more time to listen to this rich & beautiful stuff & still go to concerts! If I have to retire early bc my body can’t keep up w/the daily grind & energy it takes w/20 young children etc... it takes for my profession. A series of really serious surgeries has finally slowed me down to be able to appreciate interviews like this & I’m really diggin’ it!! I saw Slash w/Miles Kennedy & the Conspirators open for Aerosmith in 2014 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre at George, Washington. What an iconic experience!! What’s not to love about the phenomenal & talented Slash & Joe Perry talking w/Nikki Sixx!!! I’m such a guitar & metal fan... this is great listening to these guys just talk about the years & music. I could say so much more but ya, this is great! I can’t believe I’m finding this & Nikki’s not doing the radio show anymore!! Bummed 😞 but I’m really enjoying all these interviews, especially this show! Literally Joe Perry is my favorite guitar player of all time. Aerosmith fan since the ‘70’s 😉 lol My first tat I had inked on my stomach & it’s the Aerosmith logo!! Okay... nuff said... I’m going to listen to this again to hear what I missed while making this comment. Lol, I could say so much more but ya, being clean & sober it’s so much more meaningful to me. I got clean in ‘89 when I chose to have a career Teaching but drinking after work & hittin’ it hard on the weekends it’s like black & white life w/barely any time for the gray areas! Especially after I graduated from college while working full time etc... & now it’s a completely different & slowed down life to snails pace. I love veggin’ out to these interviews!! Sad to learn this is the last show... 😏 but, it’s really great 😎
slash cant remeber where they met because of the classic slash with the bottle of jack daniels in his hand lol
Joe comes on and Slash, humbly, takes charge of the interview
THE STRUGGLE IS REAL *CATER*
0 seconds ago
*****NIKKI SIXX PLEASE HEAR CATER HE SOUNDS LIKE YOUR BOY THE STRUGGLE IS REAL *CATER This is my youtube page
Yes! You can tell that Slash and Joe know each other and Joe probably only agreed to be on the Podcast with Slash. He never was particularly interested in Nikki or his bands music.
What a legendary podcast with 2 very very precious dudes ❤️
And Jenn of course ❤️ she was totally into it and made great comments ❤️👌
Great interview Nikki! Thanks
The Intro is reaaaaaaaaally long
it was the last show so
😬😬😬😬👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻so true....
I can't believe Slash said he learned Train Kept A Rollin on the low E string, I did the same thing! Damn that was so cool!
3 unique bands memebers!!! 70,80,90!!! Legends
what slash said about different decades being related to a certain kind of music is so true! and actually makes me sad because like slash said nowadays there's not such a thing which tells a lot how music is becoming crap without bound or love of any kind, i really hope someday we can talk about "2020's music was so cool" i hardly doubt that though
Slash was so right about that decades being related to music etc statement. Part of the 1970s were great. The 1980's will always be my favorite decade personally. Loved everything about it. Not just the music. 1990's runs a close second. After 2000 it was over. Nothing compares.
@@MichaelGiordano777 man maybe because you’re old? Lmfaooo what make you think that you would have anything nice to say about the that, you were probably a grown adult. I bet the older people in your gen said that about the 70s and 80s, but for us gen Z and millennials the 2000s were pretty cool
So funny seeing these cats that i knew back in the day in Hollywood, now talking about their houses and cars, guitars and all..My band, Antix played with Slash's band, Hollywood Rose a couple times at Madam Wong's back in the 80's ( where i used to play a Firebird btw ) ..And i also knew Nikki very well back when he was in the band London and then when he put together Motley Crue.. I knew these guys during the struggle years...unfortunately, drugs and alcohol derailed my career...These cats used to come and see me play...and now its sad cause I've reached out to both of them, just to say "hey how u been?"...and never get a response...Anyway, it's good to see that they're alive and well
As a kid in the 90's, I kinda always looked at bands as being sorta foes and against each other vying for that top spot as far as fame so to see like Slash and Nikki Sixx chillin and being so close as friends is very cool and kinda trippy...lol
I honestly don't know which of these two I would rather meet... they're both absolute fucking legends and embodiments of Rock N Roll.... I dunno how these guys are still alive if you look at the shit they have survived! absolute LEGENDS!!!
Seen Slash and Nikki talking about Christmas trees and decoration, is hilarious
I wonder what the hotel staff who hosted Guns and Crue would have to say about these two being so calm composed and mature about everything! 😂
I was a kid in 92 i listen to motley and guns since then
In Bridgewater Massachusetts Joe . That was the pinto surfing. I used to hang out at Rodricks on standish street in Brockton.
