VINCE NEIL, UNREPENTANT PIECE OF SHIT

Tuesday, July 6th, 2010 at 11:50am by

In 1984 Vince Neil went driving while drunk and subsequently killed or maimed three people, only one of whom had actually been stupid enough to get in the car with him. Then, last week, he was arrested in Vegas for drunk driving, demonstrating that the fateful night twenty-six years ago really had a long-lasting impact on him and the way he looks at life.

And how does Vince feel about his DUI? By all appearances, really, really guilty: Last Thursday, three days after the arrest, he asked a crowd in Vegas, “Who’s been drinking tequila tonight? Who’s gonna drink some tequila tonight?” And we know this happened ’cause TMZ has video of the incident.

It’s one thing to become a lame, bloated fuck who’s so winded he can’t even sing the lyrics to his own shit, ’cause at the end of the day, that doesn’t hurt anyone but the people who are still dumb enough to pay to see Vince Neil live in 2010. But to pull shit like this and just laugh it off… Christ, that’s the kind of thing that makes me think that Mike Monroe and the surviving members of Hanoi Rocks should be allowed to gang rape Neil to death.

The worst part is that Neil knows the pain of losing a child, but he’d still put the lives of other people’s kids at risk ’cause he’s too dumb to either drink less or use his Motley money to hire a driver. When Mick Mars is finally done turning into a statue, someone should drop him on Neil from a great height. At least then Neil will lose some of the weight.

    Thank you for continuing with these posts Axl. This behaviour is despicable and more people need to identify him for what he really is: a piece of shit. If I had my way, he would be a social pariah.

    his first single off his new album is called “tattoos and tequila” that’s probably why he has to spill that rehearsed between sing banter. he’s such a tool.

  • Novel

    Ha! Driving Drunk, Classic! … oh wait he killed someone? Nevermind, that’s not cool.

  • Frampler

    He’d enjoy the gang rape too much. Bludgeon him to death with big fucking rocks instead.

  • cougar party

    Don’t forget the box sets they released, “Music to Crash your Car to Vol. 1 & 2″. You stay classy, Vince Neil.

    Also don’t forget about Neil’s purported “sobriety.”

    The guys a huge dick but i dont know why people are so suprised. Dosent seem like theres much he wouldnt stoop to.

  • DemonicLemming

    So I’m guessing you guys never, ever blaze up while you drive, right, or drive around while still high?

    /waits for the “Smoking weed doesn’t impair driving skills like alcohol!” pothead defense

    • Doc

      LOL. Rule.

    • Iron

      You sir, are an idiot. Weed impairs your ability to drive to a certain degree, but it is still nowhere near the level that alcohol does. Neil was caught drunk driving twice, actually killing someone and turning two more people into vegetables the first time. Until Vince or Axl kill someone while driving high and then going out and driving high again, quit being a smartass.

    • http://www.facebook.com/people/Jason-John-Crispen/100000169530540 Jason John Crispen

      impaired driving is impaired driving. people drive when they’re super tired too. i know when nickelback comes on the radio i want to jerk the wheel into the next goddamn 18 wheeler.

    • DemonicLemming

      Isn’t the entire point NOT to have to kill someone to know driving under the influence of any response-dulling and mind-altering drugs is a bad idea? Inane weed defense is inane.

      Like I said before, people are shitty enough drivers without using drugs and driving at the same time. And no, I’m not some “Weed and beer is icky!” mickey mouse martinet, I just realise that using said substances has its own time and place, and driving is not one of them. You want to toke up with a bag of Doritos in front of the football game, go right ahead – I’m for legal weed. Just keep the shit out of your system when you’re driving, because even if you don’t get killed, chances are you’ll kill an innocent person. And that goes for any reaction-slowing drug, not just weed.

      • Iron

        I agree with everything you said. I’m not promoting smoking and driving. I don’t want you on the fucking road with me unless you’re stone cold sober, but to compare Vince Neil’s situation with the supposed smoking and driving of the metalsucks guys isn’t a fair argument just yet. We don’t know for sure if they drive high, even though the chances seem high. If they admit it, then let them have it. Until then, it isn’t a fair argument. I suppose Axl didn’t think through this post very well before publishing it. Anyways, it’s nice to see a reply with some tact and thought.

        • DemonicLemming

          I don’t really mean to directly pose the question to Axl and Vince, but more of a general thing (although I did aim it at them, author responses to comments are rare enough that I didn’t expect an answer). I just find it ironic (in a sort of shitty way, because of the possible consequences) that potheads call drunk drivers out for driving under the influence, but don’t see any problem with driving around after smoking an ounce with a couple friends.

          I don’t have any problem with calling Vince Neil out for being a shitbag, I just think the likelihood of the author himself being guilty of DUI himself should moderate the venom in the article a little bit.

          • Iron

            Well said man

      • Dirtman73

        For once I agree with you, DL. People who think they drive just as well stoned/drunk/dusted as they do sober are fucking dinks.

    • sYgnal

      That’s right! I forgot that these guys smoke that shit… Yea, really, what’s the fucking difference. If you’re doing anything that impairs you while you drive then you are just as big of an “unrepentant piece of shit” as Vince Neil is!

      The only credible evidence that THC reduces reaction time has been gathered from accident reports. The problem with that is nearly every incident was accompanied by the use of alcohol and/or other stronger drugs so the data is tainted. If tee-totaling potheads are out there killing babies and grannies on the freeway, it’s certainly not being reported by the authorities.

      I’ll grant that pot affects most people’s judgment and probably reduces reaction times to a small degree, but there’s simply no good research available that has credibly assessed the risk of driving while stoned.

      Our wretched system of drug prohibition survives and thrives on this kind of fact-suppression and mythology. No one has ever OD’d on THC, even after smoking copius amounts of it. Panic attacks and anxiety – yes, but a clinical overdose? It’s never happened. I suspect its effect on drivers is similarly overstated.

      • Pat

        [from a 1993 US DOT study]

        http://www.druglibrary.org/schaffer/misc/driving/dot78_1.htm

        “Of the many psychotropic drugs, licit and illicit, that are available and used by people who subsequently drive, marijuana may well be among the least harmful. Campaigns to discourage the use of marijuana by drivers are certainly warranted. But concentrating a campaign on marijuana alone may not be in proportion to the safety problem it causes.”

      • DemonicLemming

        I think that anyone who has smoked a bit of decent weed can attest to the fact that reaction times are, indeed, slowed down, and judgment is affected. Having worked with people who regularly drove high, I know personally that their reaction time to even basic things like the car in front of them slowing down was increased.

        Weed being “not as bad as other stuff you can drive under the influence under” doesn’t make it ok to drive high, and lack of objective studies on how weed affects one’s driving skills doesn’t, in any way, correlate with a charge of “fact suppression and mythology” – it’s just application of common sense. I think most of the rabid legal weed supporters would be a little surprised to find, if they could step off their soapbox for a minute, that most people aren’t opposed to weed being legalised – merely that it be used responsibly.

        • Pat

          “doesn’t, in any way, correlate with a charge of “fact suppression and mythology”

          See: Mothers Against Drunk Drivers, Narcotics Anonymous, Joseph Califano. Myth-making about weed and a lack of credible health information concerning it is at least partly attributable to the the anti-drug movement and its dishonest propaganda.

  • Ian

    Good post, Axl. This dude is a serious scumbag

  • Robotscythe

    Typical drunk…thinks he’s cool and rebellious to promote drinking at every turn. Past a certain age you’re not just “partying” anymore, you’re just a pathertic drunk. A hangover in your 20′s is a fun story. A hangover in your 40′s and 50′s is just a sad one.

  • SourDeez

    I never understand why rich, famous people drive drunk. I mean, I guess they just want to show off their cars or whatever, but when you show off your car by crashing it into some poor schmuck and killing his ass, you’re taking one step forward and a thousand steps back in the public eye.

  • bonn

    i wish vince neil would just fucking die. thank you- you made your contribution to rock- don’t let the flames of hell burn your fucking ass on the way down. and as for those buying tickets to ozzfest this year for crue; glad you have $150 to kiss goodbye.

  • Austin Nutter

    Has Vince Neil even done any jail time? I would think that killing someone while driving drunk would get you some, no matter what washed-up 80′s band you sing in.

    • http://www.facebook.com/people/Steven-Stamopoulos/575083326 Steven Stamopoulos

      the car accident was in like 1984. wasn’t really a big band then, far off washed up.
      he was sentenced to 3 months (i think, this is my bad memory from the dirt) but only ended up doing a month in minimum security jail, and apparently, it was a party.

  • Lord Assenrape

    It would have been swell if he crashed into a giant tour bus carrying all the deathcore and metalcore bands around, and they all died…

    Then after going on stage, Vince asks the crowd “Who enjoys tequila and deathcore??”

  • Matthieu Mauthes

    As punishment for this and sonic crime against humanity, he should thrown in a cage match with Eugene Robinson and henry rollins

  • Motley 2

    I think it was a stupid move, but I will always like Vince Neil and Motley Crue. Stop hating!

  • mick

    what did Mick Mars ever do to anyone?

  • MDB

    Maynard said it best. If consequences dictate a course of action. If it doesn’t matter what’s right. It’s only wrong if you get caught. If consequences dictate my course of action I should. I should play god and just SHOOT YOU MYSELF! ! ! ! ! I”M TIRED OF WAITING DIE! ! ! ! ! SHOOT IT! ! ! ! ! KICK IT! ! ! ! ! FUCK IT! ! ! ! ! SHOOT YOU IN YOUR FUCKING HEAD! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Any Takers?
