Mötley Crüe played their first show at the Starwood nightclub on April 24, 1981, just over three weeks after a band member named Neil was hired on April 1. Neil has said that he told his bandmates he was “thinking about calling the band Christmas”, an idea the others were not very receptive to. A name idea that the others met without much enthusiasm, set beside a first show held only weeks after Neil was hired, may suggest that the band's identity was still taking shape that spring. A tour ended prematurely in financial disaster, yet it became the basis for the band's first international press. For one album the band recorded in Vancouver, each member recording parts separately for the first time, to reduce infighting and concentrate on individual performance. Their live shows are elaborate, with flame thrower guitars, roller coaster drum kits and pyrotechnics such as fireworks and setting bassist Nikki Sixx on fire. Recording parts separately for the first time, set beside elaborate shows that include pyrotechnics, may suggest that the band's studio and stage work followed different approaches. On December 23, 1987, Sixx overdosed on heroin and was pronounced clinically dead while being taken to hospital; a fan of the band working as a paramedic brought him back with two shots of adrenaline. In 1998 the contract with Elektra had run out, which left the band in full control of their future, including ownership of the master recordings of every album. The 2001 autobiography The Dirt, written by all four members with Neil Strauss, called them “the world's most notorious rock band”. A paramedic who was a fan of the band, alongside the band's first international press, may suggest that its name had spread beyond its immediate circle. A 2001 autobiography presenting the band as “the world's most notorious rock band”, set beside flame thrower guitars and pyrotechnics at its live shows, may hint at a public image that the stage shows matched. Mötley Crüe was nominated twice for Favorite Hard Rock/Metal Artist. The band was convinced that Home Sweet Home was essential to the Theatre of Pain album, although label executives disagreed. After Hurricane Katrina, Chester Bennington of Linkin Park joined the band on a new version of Home Sweet Home, flying to Nashville to work with them, and the collaboration came together quickly. What was planned to be the band's final show took place on December 31, 2015, New Year's Eve, and a 2016 theatrical and Blu-ray release came from the film of it. After two and a half years of inactivity, Neil announced in September 2018 that the band had reunited and was working on new material. Label executives disagreeing over Home Sweet Home, set beside Chester Bennington joining the band on a new version, may point to a song that drew attention from several sides.
