[citation needed] After Mötley Crüe parted ways with lead singer Vince Neil in February 1992, Corabi was hired as his replacement.

Bassist Nikki Sixx and drummer Tommy Lee stated that Corabi was capable of singing anything and everything and that was the reason they chose him.

Though the music was heavier and more elaborate than the rest of the Mötley Crüe catalog, it did not sell as well as previous releases from the band.

Rather than hiring another label, Mötley Crüe acceded to the demand and by 1997, Corabi departed the band and Neil returned.

The evening was also attended by many Mötley Crüe competition winners who were invited into the VIP area to chat to Corabi, as well as the other 3 band members.

[18] John's relations with Mötley Crüe after his firing from the band has remained complicated, though Corabi and original guitarist Mick Mars has worked on some studio projects.

When asked about his portrayal in the biopic The Dirt on an interview in September 2021, Corabi said: "After my incredibly STUPID portrayal in The Dirt Movie and the ludicrous shitty statements of one of the band members in regards to my contributions and lack of writing talents, yours truly is not even remotely interested in doing that again", in reference to a rumor on him rejoining the Crüe.

[19] In 1997, Corabi formed the band Union with Bruce Kulick (recently released from KISS), Brent Fitz, and Jamie Hunting.

ESP also featured guitarist Bruce Kulick, bassist Karl Cochran, and drummer Eric Singer.
