The tragic news of guitarist Mick Mars’s passing has been widely disseminated around the internet in a short amount of time since the beginning of this week, raising alarm among fans all across the world.
Let’s investigate the validity of the rumor that Mick Mars, the guitarist for Motley Crue, has passed away, and find out if he is still alive or not.
Who Is Mick Mars
Robert Alan Deal, better known by his stage name Mick Mars, is a professional guitarist from the United States. He was born on May 4, 1951. He is well-known in the heavy metal community for his work as the lead guitarist for the band Motley Crue.
After nearly ten years of being dissatisfied with the music industry in California, he decided to give himself a new identity by changing his name from Robert Deal to Mick Mars and dying his hair jet black in the hopes of getting a new start.
In April of 1980, he advertised himself as a “loud, unpleasant, and aggressive guitar player” in the want ads section of the Los Angeles Daily The Recycler.
He received a call from Nikki Sixx and Tommy Lee, who were in the process of forming a new band that would eventually become known as Motley Crue. After listening to his performance, he was asked to join the band.

Mars has collaborated with John LeCompt, a former member of Evanescence, and the other band members of Machina, as well as with the other members of the Swedish band Crashd’et, on songwriting.
Two of the tracks on their second album, which was titled The Unattractive Revolution and was released on October 3, 2007, were written by Mick Mars in collaboration with the band.
