In & Out Of Love

| ROGER HEMOND |
Sixx
Pakk Trippe
Matthew John Trippe claimed Mötley Crüe's managers Doc McGhee and Doug Thaler
decided to bring him in as a new Nikki Sixx, after he was unable to continue after a
serious car crash in mid 83. In January 1988 he filed a lawsuit against McGhee
Enterprises, Inc. citing civil theft and other relief, claiming royalties that were never
paid for songs he said he wrote. These included Danger, Knock 'Em Dead Kid, Girls, Girls,
Girls, You're All I Need, Dancing on Glass, and Wild Side. Mötley
Crüe demoed a song called
Say Yeah about Trippe in March 1989 for their #1 album
Dr. Feelgood. On the
10th December 1993, Matthew Trippe finally dropped his lawsuit.
On the 25th August 1998, Chronological Crue caught up with his former band member Roger Hemond to gain this
interesting insight into the Nikki Sixx impostor Matthew Trippe.
