Tommy Lee Explains Dave Grohl’s Affair

Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee recently shared a message on social media for up-and-coming rockers.

Tommy Lee has a message

The drummer shared a snippet of an episode of Disco Acid Cult TV podcast about today’s state of rock and roll music.

“As sh*tty as it is for Dave Grohl to cheat on his wife, and Perry Farrell to fight his guitar player on stage, somebody’s gotta do it,” the host says in the video.

“Why are the old guys still being rock stars? Why is there no young band getting in fights on stage and cheating on girls and having babies? This generation needs to f*cking man up. Punch your bandmates on stage. Cheat on your girlfriend. If you’re gonna be a rockstar, there’s a reason that there’s no real f*cking rock and roll today.”

“We got these old motherf*ckers that are like my grandpa’s age, still trying to carry the torch of rock and roll while all these f*cking L.A. kids are eating at the food courts in Whole Foods, recording music on their f*cking MacBook that their mom bought them. Grow the f*ck up. Punch your guitar player in the mouth. Come on, it’s f*cking ridiculous,” the host added.

The drummer also shared the video on his story without a caption. Similar to the recent video, the rocker shared his thoughts on younger musicians almost 20 years ago — and he thinks they lack something else.

“You know, great rock ‘n’ roll has always been threatening. Just take the classics – whether it was Elvis, the Beatles, David Bowie or the Rolling Stones (Mick Jagger) — they all got into trouble with the police at some time or other. Some of them even spent time behind bars,” the drummer said in an interview with Spiegel.

“Nowadays, on the other hand, there are more and more serious musicians and fewer and fewer genuine rock stars. I hardly know any young musicians who really live it up. To put it another way: many young talents are lacking in charisma,” he revealed.

Mötley Crüe are set to go on tour next year under the title ‘The Las Vegas Residency,’ kicking off on March 28th at Dolby Live and concluding on April 19th.
