This is very much Sixx's story, a father now himself settled in Wyoming with his family — not far from Idaho, where much of his story started — who is feeling around in his past.
So how can you look at it?

Girls, Girls, Girls was also the last record you did with your longtime producer, Tom Werman. Tom didn't have the easiest job with the band at that time. We were probably at our most reckless.
We had a lot of success, we had a lot of money, and we had a lot of people around us saying, "Yes. We'd go there and, like, basically party. And, you know, our parties weren't like some of the bands that copied us, where it was like, "Party rock, man! So it was a little bit different. And it was a hard job and I think that after that album we got sober and I know that me and Tommy [Lee] specifically set out to find a producer that could take us sonically to the next level and push us as a band.
You mention you felt that there were bands at the time copying you. In , it did seem like there were tons of hard rock acts going multi-platinum by cribbing elements of your sound and style. Did it bother you? I mean, I thumbed my nose at 'em because they didn't get punk rock.

When the Guns N' Roses guys started hanging around, Slash and Steven [Adler] and Izzy [Stradlin] were crashing at my house all the time, and I was seeing them play in clubs. And I felt like, "Wow, man, these are kindred spirits," you know? We didn't need tour support. Our tours were gonna sell out anyway. But we liked them. We felt they were real. And they were real. And I'm proud that we saw that early and that we had that relationship with them. And you know, [on early Girls, Girls, Girls dates] we took Whitesnake out, and that was really because of the huge respect we had for David Coverdale and the Deep Purple connection.
