In the vibrant yet gritty rock scene of the early 80's, Nikki Sixx, a bassist with a troubled past, and Tommy Lee, a free-spirited drummer, find one another on what would have been any other ordinary Saturday night.

Almost instantly, Nikki senses there's a musical connection to behold as he's watching Suite 19's drummer perform that night at the Troubadour. And much to his utter dismay, he also senses the inkling of another, more primal connection between the two of them. A connection he purposely tries to pretend doesn't exist, for the sake of his own sanity, so he tells himself. 

But pretending can only fabricate an illusion you desperately wish was real for so long. When the walls of Nikki's deluded reality begin to crumble, he finds himself drowning in the remains of his shattered dignity and feelings of self-hatred. Yet, when he finally breaks the surface for a desperate breath of air, it's there that he finds Tommy, the savior he had been searching for - his lifeline, rescuing him from his abyssal sea.

How To Train a Rockstar (Complete)

26 parts Complete Mature

Nikki Sixx has been eagerly waiting for the day when the lineup of his new band would be complete. The assemblage was only missing one member. He'd found a drummer, his best friend Tommy Lee. Nikki had also hired guitarist Mick Mars out of a newspaper advertisement. And he himself played bass. But he still needed a frontman. He'd met quite a few, but none of them were the perfect fit. One night, he went to a club with his bandmates and found the most beautiful singer he'd ever seen with the most perfect voice he'd ever heard. But this perfect singer by the name of Vince Neil had just one problem: He was simply a bit too...sweet and innocent. Could Nikki train him to create the ideal rockstar?
