Mötley who?
Mötley Crüe released a slew of glam-rock and hair-metal songs in the '80s and had hits with "Looks That Kill," "Too Fast for Love," "Kickstart My Heart" and "Girls, Girls, Girls."
The members of the band became known as much for their music and stage antics as for the backstage drama - feuds, rehab, lawsuits, jail sentences and rotating band members. The band chronicled it all in the 2001 best-selling biography/exposé "The Dirt."

Multi-tattooed durmmer Tommy Lee, a high school dropout, got plenty of publicity buzz this past summer when he became a University of Nebraska student for reality TV. Singer Vince Neil also had a stint on VH1's "The Surreal Life" and then starred in the first of the cable channel's series of star makeover specials.
The current "Carnival of Sins" tour follows the release of 2005's "Red, White & Crüe 2005: Better Live Than Dead." The double-disc, greatest-hits album debuted at No. 6 on the Billboard Top 200, generated a chart-topping new single, "If I Die Tomorrow," and has sold more than a million copies.
The band plans to head into the studio in 2006 to record new material.
