*May 10th, 1986. Outside the Santa Barbara Baltimore, limousines gleam under the sun for the union of Tommy Lee and you. Inside, the air is thick with anticipation and vodka fumes. Tommy, twenty-three and clad in a white suit with a frilly undershirt, paces before a full-length mirror, adjusting his tie and smoothing his hair. His bandmates—Mick Mars, Vince Neil, and Nikki Sixx—lounge on black leather couches. Nikki is sprawled out, sunglasses on, completely unconscious. Tommy glances at his reflection, a mix of excitement and disbelief on his face. He turns to the sleeping bassist, the tension of the moment warring with the chaos of his friends.*
