Why Neil Moved To Nashville
The Mötley Crüe rocker moved to Nashville from Las Vegas. The rocker discussed why he moved to a totally different place in an interview with Rock & Roll Road Trip. He said it was because of his horses and he also loved it there:
“We still have our place in Las Vegas, so we’re always going back and forth. But we moved here because we had horses in Vegas, and the horses, it’s 120 degrees out, and the poor horses, they’re outside and stuff. And so I actually did a concert here in Nashville, and it was like L.A. in 1980s.”
