SIXX: A.M.: New Audio Interview With D.J. ASHBA Available

August 23, 2008

Steve Black of "The Chop Shop" syndicated guitar show recently conducted an interview with SIXX: A.M. guitarist D.J. Ashba (ex-BEAUTIFUL CREATURES). Listen to the four-minute chat at this location.

"Tomorrow", the new video from SIXX: A.M. — which features MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki Sixx, James Michael and Ashba — can be viewed below.

SIXX: A.M. made its live debut in July 2007 following a press conference to promote Sixx's new book and accompanying soundtrack, "The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star". Highlights from the press conference can be seen at this location.

Released last September via MTV/VH1 Pocket Books, a division of Simon & Schuster, "The Heroin Diaries" offers an unflinching and utterly gripping look at Sixx's descent into drug addiction. The book is a tell-all, drawn from Nikki's 1986 and '87 journals.

Sixx found the diaries in storage and spent years compiling them for the book. He said he sees them more as a commentary on the record business than as a portrait of a lurid rock 'n' roll lifestyle.

The SIXX: A.M. album, which serves as the "soundtrack" to Sixx's "The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star" book, was released by Eleven Seven Music and distributed by ADA, with a portion of proceeds donated to Nikki's Running Wild in the Night, a fundraising initiative for Covenant House. The CD has sold 255,000 copies in the United States so far, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
