By "removed" I mean they clearly photoshopped Mick out of this photo. I have no problem with Motley Crue continuing on without him (other than Vince Neil being fucking awful). But take some new photos with the current band for fucks sake. Shopping a longtime band mate out is disrespectful, shitty, and mildly infuriating. Especially since he retired due to a painful and crippling disease.

That pic is definitely not photoshopped.

It was the first official photo they released after John5's joining was announced.

It is lame what they're doing to Mick in general though.

Well shit, guess I made some assumptions. Kind of kills even the mild fury.

Did Vince lose weight? He looks a lot better in this photo vs their last tour. Good for him if he did.

Indeed he did.

There were lots of articles about him struggling to do it before the stadium tours.

He's still not in great shape and from all accounts not performing very well live but that's what he is looking like now.
