Motley Crue suing NBC

by Bob Sassone, posted May 25th 2005 8:01AM

Motley CrueSo what's this all about, Motley Crue filing a lawsuit against NBC? On the 2004 New Year's Eve Jay Leno show, Crue lead singer Vince Neil let the F-word fly, and NBC then banned the group from future appearances on the network. Neil and crew (crue) have said that the network did it just to please the FCC and that banning them from the network has violated their first amendment rights, hurt the band and hurt its record sales. Hey guys: there are worse things than being banned from Jay Leno's show.

This is clearly a publicity stunt. Does anyone still listen to Motley Crue? It's not like they're The Who or The Stones. They're among the blandest of the bland 70s rock bands.

You've changed, man. You used to be about the music, now it's about money and whining cause you can't play the tonight show? What happened, man. Oh wait, this is Motley Crue, you always sucked.

Last time I checked, NBC was *not* a government entity subject to First Amendment restrictions. Sorry Crue, this doesn't look like a winner.
