Tommy Lee – founding member and drummer of Mötley Crüe – has opened up about the injury that left him with four broken ribs prior to his band’s comeback tour.In a video posted to her Snapchat account (as transcribed by Blabbermouth), Lee’s wife Brittany Furlan revealed that the drummer had fallen down a set of stairs while the couple were on vacation in Nashville. “The stairs outside were made out of stones,” Furlan said. “They were really uneven, and the roots were pushing them up from the tree… I actually fell up the stairs a few times.“The day that we were leaving Nashville, our driver came and we had all this luggage and he wasn’t helping us – he just stayed in the car.
Tommy was trying to carry all of our luggage for us. He fell down these crazy stairs and broke four ribs. Not fractured, not bruised… broke.”Furlan went on to note that Lee still got on the plane from Nashville to Philadelphia, where he was scheduled to meet with the rest of the band for rehearsals.
Upon meeting with doctors, Lee’s broken ribs were confirmed. “They wanted to keep him there, but he did not want to stay,” Furlan added. “He’s just a fighter.
He’s the toughest guy I know.”Lee ended up joining Mötley Crüe for the first few songs of their set when their tour began earlier this month (June 16) in Atlanta.
