Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx reached out to former Metallica guitarist and current Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine after he announced that he has tongue cancer.
Sixx wrote, “You are in our prayers buddy. Need anything please reach out.”
Sixx also recently tweeted, “Breaking the band was not authorized by Mötley Crüe. Our lawyers sent them a cease-and-desist and further action will be taken.@ReelzChannel Is the bottom of the barrel.”
“Should @ReelzChannel be liable for putting out shows without so many artist approval? I am very disappointed that they think they can tell our LIFE story just to sell advertising ( mostly incorrect ) and without any bodies permission.”
Dave Mustaine announced earlier this week:
I’ve been diagnosed with throat cancer. It’s clearly something to be respected and faced head on – but I’ve faced obstacles before. I’m working closely with my doctors, and we’ve mapped out a treatment plan which they feel has a 90% success rate. Treatment has already begun.

Unfortunately, this requires that we cancel most shows this year. The 2019 Megacruise will happen, and the band will be a part of it in some form. All up to date information will be at megadeth.com as we get it. Megadeth will be back on the road ASAP.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Meanwhile, Kiko, David, Dirk and I are in the studio, working on the follow up to Dystopia – which I can’t wait for everyone to hear.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m so thankful for my whole team – family, doctors, band members, trainers, and more.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ll keep everyone posted.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
See you soon,
Dave Mustaine
