The topic of gun violence has been back in the headlines this past week after back-to-back mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton, but sadly it's a topic that has surfaced repeatedly throughout the year. In separate discussions, both Corey Taylor and Nikki Sixx have added their thoughts to the conversation.

Megadeth bassist David Ellefson was there when Nikki Sixx was declared clinically dead from a drug overdose before the Motley Crue member was revived by a paramedic after two long minutes back in 1987.

Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx is on the mend after undergoing surgery on his right shoulder. Articulating a count of five "cadaver parts" now in his body, the musician shared a few photos of his post-surgery state.
