Orlando, FL , United States of America -- Over recent days, there have been reports and rumors that Tommy Lee, Drummer of Motley Crue has quit Motley Crue.

Tommy Lee has responded to such reports with the following statement:

"I am a founding member of Motley Crue. Based on internal band issues aired publicly, my future with the band is uncertain. I have tried to meet with my band-mates repeatedly without success but have informed them that I’m not walking away from my band of 25 years. It troubles me that the current legal issues which were filed by the corporations against my personal manager are separating us and causing more dysfunction. I hope we can work this out amongst ourselves."
