I'm Daniel from Sweden and I'm 37 years old. 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!

2007

After the Motley Crue concert in Stockholm, Sweden I went to Tommy Lee's afterparty at Berns. I got recognized by another big Motley Crue collector. It was Mats from mastcruepage.se It was nice to meet him, We are both so much into collecting Motley Crue that it's insame! But we love it!


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!!!!


Tommy's drumstick in my hand!

The morning after... breakfast, -delicious!!
