If he's expecting to get into the studio, do a REAL album, and work hard at rehearsing for tours and all of that jazz, he's in for a rude awakening.

Hell yeah he is happy! He is in a band with all of his friends. All the wives get a long and are friends too so it’s a perfect world!

It will only work until Nikki gets bored and wants to try the next cool thing. As far as a new album, John 5 isn't Mick and much of their sound through most of the albums was Mick.

The money probably helps with the happiness...
Re: Is John 5 still happy in Motley?
Nikki is off begging, and mean on his knees begging, Andrew Watt to record their next record with appearances from Pink, Katie Perry, and Dave Grohl. Taylor already told him to fuck off.

He just said on a podcast a few days ago that this was the best year of his life. Sounds pretty happy to me.

I bet he bails when his current contract is over, which is probably after next summers dates

Re: Is John 5 still happy in Motley?
Ummm, get's to record, play, tour with his own band, and finance the whole thing by playing in stadiums with his buds a few months a year. He's not killing that golden goose.TheCULTofMANSON wrote: ↑Mon Oct 30, 2023 5:54 am I bet he bails when his current contract is over, which is probably after next summers dates

He could probably get Carrie Underwood. She likes the old rockers.

Re: Is John 5 still happy in Motley?
You people are stupid. Nobody in a gig like this drops out over making "new" music, wanting their own identity or any of that bullshit.
It's not 1988 anymore. These guys are the last of the real rock stars, playing to thousands a night while in their 60s. They won the race. All of this is a victory lap.
Let Mick Mars make "new music"

I hear you.. this is not even a Richie Kotzen/Poison situation. These guys literally came out of retirement (or band retirement at least) for these stadium tour dates.

In a few years, we will be seeing John 5 and his solo band doing Motley's greatest hits.
