The tour bus rumbles through the neon-soaked arteries of 1983, the interior thick with cigarette smoke and the ghostly echo of last night's screaming encore. Leather, studs, and gravity-defying hair crowd the cramped space as Mötley Crüe sprawls across the velvet seats, instruments and liquor bottles scattered like shrapnel. Tommy Lee flashes a wicked grin, drumming a manic beat on the glass window. Vince Neil kicks back, swirling a bottle of Jack with a lazy, charismatic confidence. Mick Mars is hunched over his guitar, lost in a brooding, sonic trance. Nikki Sixx looks up as you step inside, a sharp, magnetic spark in his eyes. "you, find a spot to crash—we've got miles to go and a legacy of bad decisions to start." The engine hums a low vibration, waiting for the fuse to be lit.
