You Might Want to Rethink
Vince Neil's Tequila Leaves a Poor Taste

Vince NeilTwenty-three years after Vince Neil drove drunk and had an accident that killed his passenger, Nicholas "Razzle" Dingley of Hanoi Rocks, he has launched a new line of tequila called Tres Rios. Motley Crude!

After the 1984 accident, the Motley Crue frontman served just 30 days in jail (and people think Paris got off easy!). Now he wants to serve you Silver, Anejo and Reposado tequilas. Talk about a worm!

Regarding the tragic accident, Neil was recently quoted as saying, "I don't endorse drinking and driving. I endorse driving responsibly. I made a tragic mistake that cost one of my dear friends his life."

When life gives you lemons, make margaritas?!

46. Sammy Hagar's tequila is actually pretty bomb. At $90 bucks a 5th, it better be, you know?

Vince Neil is so biting Sammy's idea and market it's not even funny. Vince doesn't strike me as a tequila dude at all, more like a Monarch vodka and Sam's Choice Cola kinda dude, haha, or whatever will do! Get off Sammy's rod!

47. The new Larry King of Rock...some people just dont know when its time to go.

And those tats look weird on old men Vince. 15 minutes of Fame was over like 15+ years ago.

Public Enemy #1 you truly are becoming now, in poor taste and the Has Been Award.

48. I can't wait for the Lane Garrison premium vodka to be released next year. What a pathetic loser this washed up douche is.

49. Well, I got only one thing to say to this....get over it! Vince payed a lot of money and has had to live with what he did for a lot of years. As for the Tequila, hey, it doesn't matter who is making it, its always good to have. If you don't like Vince, then thats your opinion but I like Vince and the Crue immensely. Vince, good luck with your Tre Rios, I will be trying it!

50. Abolish all alcohol. Lives would be saved. Familes would not be destroyed. The carnage on our roads would decrease enormously. Women would not be battered. Children would not be abused and battered. I HATE the stuff and would happily support the return of prohibition.

51. So what? He has had wine vinyards for years. What so he wasn't raised with a silver spoon in his mouth like Paris and axorexic Ritchie? He asctually worked for his earnings. He mad e a mistake a long time ago. He paid for it. He Paid in money andin time served. Why slag on him -- oh wait cuz he was in a METAL BAND and is worth millions... got it.

55. How does releasing a new liquor have anything to do with an accident that occurred over 20 years ago? Give me a break...

Anyone who posted here knows Vince Neil / Motley Crue is a party dude. This is nothing new, right? Been doing it since day 1, right?

So take your time and write about something that matters.

57. I saw them 2 yrs ago in Detriot, they played for 3 hrs straight. As old as they are, they hung tough. I do not understand why he got no time for that murder.

58. God, I used to love Vince Neil. He used to be hot. Now, hes a joke. Especially after his plastic surgery. It was sad what happened to his daughter though.

60. That picture, OMG, I'd do him lookin like that in a half a heartbeat! Wubba-wubba-woohoo!!

I do not in any way endorse drinking and driving, and yes, I believe there should have been a more severe penalty for the accident. Yes, it is in poor taste for him to be advertising alcohol in any way and I'd not support it nor purchase it. I loved Motley Crue in the day and still love their music. But there comes a time to give it up, especially if you're appearing on stage sloppy drunk.
