A Florida woman attending the Livestock rock festival in St. Petersburg, Florida, last year is suing Motley Crue and bassist Nikki Sixx for head injuries she claims she suffered when Sixx smashed his guitar on the stage and threw it into the audience. According to a report in the St. Petersburg Times, the flying instrument is alleged to have struck the 33 year-old woman in the forehead and knocking her to the ground. She was taken to a hospital by ambulance. The litigation is against Sixx (a.k.a. Frank Carlton Ferrano) and Motley Crue Touring Inc. There's no dollar figure attached other than the minimum filing requirement of $15,000 but she's suing for "pain and suffering, disability, mental anguish, loss of capacity for the enjoyment of life, expense of hospitalization, medical and nursing care and treatment, loss of earnings and loss of ability to earn money." Her husband is claiming "the loss of the care, companionship, society and comfort of his spouse."
