"I had a chainsaw and cut a nun's head off. You don't see that s--- at all anymore." --Vince Neil

In a recent interview, Motley Crue's frontman criticized bands these days for not having "theatrics" -- lighting themselves on fire, etc.

You can see these theatrics and better at any GWAR show. I think it used to be the Pope though... Maybe Vince should get out more.

I agree, where did all the theatrics go? There's nothing better than seeing someone light a fire onstage or set something else on fire. Massive explosions. Ahhhhh. Those were good times. Good times.

You're right, that's definitely under-doing it. Lets cut off 10 nuns heads and then fuck the throat while playing. It'll probably grab the attention of all the death metal fans.
