Despite the pandemic, and a health expert warning large concerts won't return until Fall 2021 the earliest, Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee declared the band's big comeback tour this summer "still a go" earlier this month. But bassist Nikki Sixx isn't spending too much time worrying about if the show will happen right now.
In a new post on social media last night (April 13,) Sixx posted a photo with his wife Courtney and all of his kids, including his newborn, Ruby, and shared the following words:
"We are trying to make each day special while in isolation.Somedays it feels like Groundhog Day and other days/nights it feels like a weird vacation.Somedays I can see the frustration building up in my family of not knowing when it’s gonna end and other days I hear laughs and pranks being pulled around the house.
"There is no perfect answer to this riddle we are going through right now.
"I have to say we are beyond grateful for all the hero’s working tirelessly on the front lines saving people’s lives while the rest of us stay home and try flattening the curve.
"I am grateful I am sober right now. I am beyond hopeful we will get through this sooner rather than later. Either which way we’re all in this together.
"Be kind to each other, let people know you are there for them ( even a simple phone call is enough to change someone’s day).
"Don't worry about sports, concerts or getting back to your life before Covid 19 right now. Pray, meditate and let go of the outcome right now.
"We are powerless. Do the right thing. Don’t be selfish. Don't act as if you might get it, act as though you might have it and don’t know it. Protect everybody around you and most of all your family and loved ones. As Tommy said yesterday when he texted me “Happy Weird Ass Easter Bro”. Indeed. Indeed."
Even President Trump told sports leagues owners that his optimistic opinion was for stadiums and arenas to reopen in August, which is two months after the Crue tour is scheduled to start.
If I were to speculate, I would guess the tour gets moved to 2021. But that's just my opinion.
We are trying to make each day special while in isolation.Somedays it feels like Groundhog Day and other days/nights it…
