Motley Crue is known for the wild, raucous lives led by its members, especially bassist Nikki Sixx, a hedonistic rock star with a penchant for getting lit on fire on stage. The group started out as a straightforward heavy metal band when they formed in 1981 in Los Angeles, later taking a turn towards the growing genre of glam. Known for their theatrical live performances, which have always been full of wild pyrotechnics, the group certainly has a taste for theatrics.
