Shortly after the first contact from this mysterious individual, I asked Temple of Set Adept

Demon O’Brien, a music industry professional and close personal friend of KISS’ Gene Simmons,

if she could verify his story. O’Brien telephoned me on January 4, 1986 to say that she had just

met with Simmons in Knoxville, Tennessee, where KISS was doing a concert, and that he had

confirmed to her that Matthew Trippe was indeed the original Nikki Sixx - but that, since KISS

was also signed with Elektra, he would not say anything publicly about it. With this confirmation

[and the traffic ticket], I decided to run the Runes story.

Subsequently both the American Rolling Stone (June 1988) and the British Kerrang! (March

1988) and New Musical Express (January 1988) ran major stories on the Sixx/Trippe

controversy. A lawsuit initiated by Trippe was dismissed for not falling within the statute of

limitations. Warner’s/Elektra and the four current members of Mötley Crüe have steadfastly

maintained that there is no truth whatever to Trippe’s account of events. He himself, in Internet

interviews, continues to assert it to this day.

The Nine Unknown

- by -

Nikki Sixx II°

May XXII ÆS

In the Eye of Set

There lurks a mysterious,

Invisible Force:

The Council of Nine.

They gather and frown

At the Christians’ cross

In mourning for man

And for his mind’s loss.

Then, in a final flash of glory,

Set

Shalt thou come

To grace the night.
