This has nothing to do with a DP or anything else usually discussed on this board, I just like the idea of a rocker hitting the books and realizing it can be tough.

Tommy Lee: College Is Hard

Tuesday, November 09, 2004

LINCOLN, Neb. — Former Motley Crue (search) drummer Tommy Lee (search) said he's finding his experience at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (search) to be a lot of work.

In a news conference Sunday, Lee said he loves horticulture, but finds chemistry to be unbelievably hard.

Another shock: Learning he had to wake at 6 a.m. to be at Memorial Stadium for drum practice with school's band.

"This is the total fish-out-of-water experience for me," Lee said. "I didn't have the opportunity to go to college. I was busy touring since the age of 17. So this is completely strange and bizarre, but a lot of fun and a lot of work."

Lee, 42, is attending classes and activities during the filming of an NBC reality show, "Tommy Lee Goes to College." Filming began in early October.

"It's the real deal," Lee said of his studies. "I'm playing catch-up since we jumped in (during) the middle of the semester."

The "Smokin' in the Boys Room" rocker said he really is buckling down.

Executive producer Eddie October has even stored a picture in his cell phone of a sheet of paper he found taped to Lee's door last week. On it is written: "Do Not Disturb. Tommy is Studying (Seriously)."

I don't know what's worse.
The guy that thught up a show like that, or the producer funding it.
Good for him though, that he's doing it.

ohwow ...youre never too old to learn ? probably get ejected from every class. Thumping on his desk with a pencil and slide rule's gotta be irritating? As if drumming is NOT hard work.

I never even finished reading the first paragraph before my
first thought was 'hmh, how long till this becomes a movie of
the week?'...or, something along the lines of: 'hasnt that
already been done before?''

what a kill-joy to see it right there in black and
white electrons: : reality TV.

if his fan bases tunes in and any of them happen to be young
and impressionable, they can break out the rollies and laugh
their way through it..and then let reality come up and bite them
in the ass as it has with Tommy Lee.

Probably funny to watch, unfortunately I dont have cable
tv let alone an hour to kill that way.

How many of his classmates saw his movie with Pam?

page.

Or, " The forum you selcted to reply to does not exist."

So now that thats outta the way...are there any other Pam Lee fans here besides me?
