Motley Crüe‘s Vince Neil celebrates his 64th birthday today. As a child of the 80s, I loved the Dr. Feelgood album. How is that possible, you might ask? Well, I watched a lot of unsupervised MTV. My folks knew that I was obsessed with music and they just encouraged my interest and passion or all things music.
Happy birthday, Vince!
