Tommy Lee Checks Out Museum Of Sex In NYC

Having began his career in rock & roll at the ripe old age of 17, Methods of Mayhem mainman Tommy Lee has basically seen and done it all. But he’s never been to New York City’s famed Museum of Sex — until now. While the rock star was in town promoting the release of his long-awaited sophomore album for Methods, A Public Disservice Announcement, we took Lee on a tour to remember. 
Boasting an eclectic mix of rock, metal and dance on the brand new album, with tracks like “All I Wanna Do” — which Tommy explains is, “Just nasty for the sake of being fun. You’ve got to have a good sex song on the record. If you don’t you kind of suck right?” — we thought it nothing short of appropriate. So with the museum’s curator Sarah Jacobs leading us through each wondrous exhibit, check out the video after the jump to watch as Tommy gets an impromptu sex education.
 
Tommy commented via twitter, “What a spot!! when in NYC ya’ll must visit!! thanks guys…..even I learned a few thangs!”

The Birthday Massacre Co-Headline Tour With Black Veil Brides

Hollywood’s standout theatrical rockers, Black Veil Brides and Toronto’s most visually stunning and musically exciting band, The Birthday Massacre (review HERE), will team up to melt faces across the United States on a twenty city co-headlining tour this fall. They’ll be making stops in Atlanta, Houston, Anaheim and Seattle. Currently headlining shows throughout the US on their “Entertainment or Death” tour, the Black Veil Brides are riding high on the success of their chart topping debut album, We Stitch These Wounds, which came in at #36 on the Billboard Top 200 and #1 on the Billboard Independent at the time of album’s release. Currently headlining a UK tour as well as a coming off a successful East Coast sweep, The Birthday Massacre have been reaping heaps of critical praise for their recently released fourth album Pins and Needles on Metropolis Records which debuted at #5 on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart. Supporting acts on the tour will be Dommin and Aural Vampire.
Black Veil Brides was formed in 2006 when 15-year-old vocalist, Andy Six, began seeking players to create a vision of a modern day heavy metal band, combining the theatrics and passion of Misfits, Motley Crue, and Kiss, with lyrical content that pertains to the downtrodden outcasts of society. With a goal of bringing back the community and passion that was once so prevalent in rock and roll, he moved to LA in 2009 recruiting Ashley Purdy (bass), Jinxx (guitar), Jake Pitts (lead guitar), and Christian Coma (drums). With passionate hook-laden instrumentals and lyrics of hope and strength, Black Veil Brides quickly gained a dedicated following of fans averaging over 10,000 plays a day on the band’s MySpace and 13 million views of their first video for their single, “Knives and Pens”.
