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

Vince Neil's Tequila Leaves a Poor Taste

Posted Jun 29th 2007 3:19PM by TMZ Staff

Twenty-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?!

63. Vince got off too easy for killing Razzle and virtually destroying the promise of one of Europe's best rock and roll bands.. Well got off easy legally maybe, his career has slowly declined no matter what Crue fans will say. This last ditch for some fame cash is almost as good as him caught on film doing the chicken dance!

68. Well as for Sammy's Cabo Wabo get it now because it is no longerin production. I wonder why also it was actually really good stuff

As for the artice... one Paris got off easy and so did Vince but 24 years ago the perception was different as so were the laws...I don't think the same would happen today.

Its in the past ....at some point you need to let it go
