Music appreciation has always been a big part of my family, cruehead.
I have two sisters who are less than 18 months age difference from me (I'm the middle) and a sister who's 10 years younger than I.
My 10-years-younger baby sister latched on to my Motley Crue cassettes when she was a kid (my dad had a turn-table, an 8 track player, a cassette player, and a CD player in his office when he passed away, all recently used -- he was so geeky cool).
My baby sister became a huge Crue fan as a result and, being in Los Angeles, has seen them time and again. She's a bit stalker-ish; the only of us girls with that tendency. She's funny as all hell though and the band seems to love her. Her teen daughter lives with me now -- she rocks my world, but can be a bit of a pain in the ass, like her mom.
Anyway, baby sister has taken her three kids and their older cousins to Crue concerts for years. My barely-younger sister and I saw them back in the 80s and 90s a few times and took her kids with us twice. Total blast.
Long story long, Motley Crue is part of my family's culture -- not a big part, but a fun part nonetheless.
My baby sister and her youngest daughter would love you -- "MICK MARS, THE GUITAR MAN" that caption underneath a picture of Mick from the Dr. Feelgood tour is what's on my 5-year-old niece's best loved t-shirt.
But, yeah, Mick can lick it, no doubt.
