Crue bassist Nikki Sixx is posting a tour journal, and shares his thoughts on opening night: "Considering the time difference from Los Angeles the jet lag isn't too bad. Our hotel fire alarm kept going off last night and it was somehow a blessing in disguise because it kept me awake late enough to help get me back on track.

"I was talking to Paul Stanley backstage today and he said he is still waking up at 4 am. Jet lag is a bitch when you have to get up onstage and give 100% but once the lights go down all the fatigue goes right out the window. There is no rush like performing live for a sold out crowd.
