TWO amazing things are going down today!!
Motley Crue is performing on The David Letterman Show
AND
Their new album “Saints of Los Angeles” is out today!! Fuck yeah!!!
I guess, without sounding like a fuckin’ commercial, this is the first time in a relationship where I can honestly say I’m SO proud and stoked for my other half! It’s been one hell of a ride watching Nikki work his ass off putting together, not only the album, but the tour as well (Crue Fest).
I know what it’s like to have a lot on my plate, and still try to balance a work life with family time, as well as some kinda social life, and maybe if you’re lucky, some alone time! Nikki has somehow managed to do ALL of that, AND on top of that – be a rad father! Jesus!!!
But those are the qualities I admire in the people in my life.
It’s weird, ’cause Nikki has made being with someone, a completely new trip for me. Ya know, I always wanted to meet someone who was just as driven as I am, dedicated to the stuff they’re passionate about, leading a busy and productive life. I figured that’s gonna be the only way a guy was gonna be able to put up with my hectic ass schedule… and low and behold, BAM! I meet Nikki, and he is all of those things – and more…
But just as much as I wanted to be with someone who had their own thing goin’ on.. its a blessing and a curse at the same time. Right now, Nikki’s in New York, doing the Letterman thing, and then starting the beginning of a gnarly long touring schedule… and you know what?
I fuckin’ hate that I miss him so much! … And to think this is just the BEGINNING of the tour, and the beginning of my filming schedule for Season 3… so I’m gonna be equally as slammed… Finding time that will allow me to fly out and visit him has been pretty damn hard…
BUT, as difficult as it is to sleep at night without him next to me.. this is what we asked for! HA!
And even though I’m over here in Hollywood, and Nikki’s off and about all over the country, I wouldn’t want it any other way. I can be proud, and excited for him from a distance…
ANYWAY! The point of this was to share with you guys how happy I am to see all of this stuff come together in the end for Nikki, and know you guys will all agree with me when I say the new album is truly fucking RAD!!!
Lemme know what you think, if you hear it, or catch them on Letterman!
Maybe send him a virtual High Five here on myspace, for kickin’ major ass!!
XOXO,
Kat Von D
PS. If you guys get a chance to listen to the song, “Animal”, it’s one of my personal faves, even though its the only slow jam on the record… Some of those lyrics were derived from Nikki and I’s back and forth text messages in the first few months we were dating…. (Awwhhh… yes, you can puke now!)
