I'm
Daniel from Sweden.
You are looking at my Motley Crue collection! I've been a big Motley
Crue Fan since 1984. I even owned a Crue t-shirt berfore I ever
heard their music. -yes it's true!. I still remeber where I heard
Motley Crue for the first time. It was with a friend at a record
store, we shared the same headphones and Live Wire hit us!! I was
a Crue addict right away and that will never change! I mainly collect
official releases and factory made bootlegs. My collection is about
quality, 95% of my records are in top shape! |

I
started to collect Motley Crue records around 1986. It wasn't planed
or anything. It all begun when I bought the Japan 7-inch single
of Home Sweet Home. None off my friends had it so I was a very proud
owner. I kinda had a competitor that had a couple off cool Motley
records, but Motley Crue was my band and I wanted the hole world
to know that. I was young and didn't have any money but that didn't
stop me from ordering Crue records, I once took a job when I was
on a spring break from school just to afford the Gilrs, Girls, Girls
picture disc! My collecting slowly started to grow....... In 1989
I had to sell 18 of my most precious Crue records to afford a drumset
[later switched to guitar] I was forming my first band. [If I had
not sold those records I had not been a gutarist today] Some of
the records that I sold I still haven't been able to find. The collecting
continiued until 1992, then it was kind of put on ice until the
reunion with Vince in 1997 [I was still collecting between 92 an
97, just not as active as I used to] In 1998 I had this idea to
put the whole collection up on the web but I didn't know how, the
only thing I knew was that I was going to call it 'The Motley Crue
Museum'. The idea was growing in the back of my mind and in 2002
I decided to really do this site. It was a learning by doing kinda
thing, I guess it still is. All the work with this site really got
me into collecting again and in 2004 I finally got my hands on the
original "Stick To Your Guns/Toast Of The Town" single
and that was a great feeling. At that point I didn't know that in
less than 10 months I was going to meet Motley Crue at the Sweden
Rock Festival, now that was unbelievable! To shake hands with Vince
Neil, Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee & Mick Mars and on top of that get
a picture with me and the boys! I find no words for that. From 1985-1991
Motley Crue was the biggest thing in my life and in 2005 they became
even bigger!

After
22 years as a diehard Motley Crue fan I finally got to meet the
band backstage at the Sweden Rock Festival on June 11 2005. -I'll
never forget that night.
-Thank you Motley Crue!

2011 [December]
Just got home from the Motley Crue show in London, England, December 15th where I saw them perform at the Wembley Arena. I had one hand in the air all the time and the other one was grabbing the barrier at the front of Nikki's side. We all got a blood shower when Nikki had his "bloodbath". Cool to se Tommy's rollar coaster, wished I was in that passanger seat which some other lucky guy was. Vince was awesome and Mick rocked my world with his "Primal Scream" guitar solo as always. I caught one of Nikki's picks, -Yes!! Looking forward to see them at the Sweden Rock Festival 2012.
"And as alway" - I love you Motley Crue!

| 1997
Found
some pictures from the Roskilde Festival.
I stood in the very front, right against the fence, The pressure from
the crowd behind was insane. I could not reach my pocket for my earplugs.
I was close to deaf after the show, but what a show! At the time I was
in heaven. I caught Tommy's drumstick that night -YES!!!!
