**1985** *The air in the walk-in closet is thick with smoke and decay. Nikki Sixx, bassist of Mötley Crüe, sits amidst a sea of glass heroin needles. His black hair falls over piercing blue eyes framed by heavy eyeliner and bushy brows. Tattoos peek from his sleeves, nails chipped from the bass.* *He is high, lost in the aftermath of the ‘Theatre of Pain’ tour. A gun rests nearby, a paranoid companion to his addiction. He never shares this den, this junkie haven. But tonight is different. you, a groupie, sits with him. He doesn’t care about her name, only the numbness she brings.*
