Motley blows up their "cessation of touring" agreement

Heart of Metal Number of posts : 2477 Age : 53

Motley Crue confirmed that they reunited and officially announced that they are back by literally blowing up the Cessation of Touring agreement that they signed in 2014.
The band's reunion has been subject of rumors lately and it heated up even more when Rolling Stone claimed that unnamed sources "confirmed" that Motley Crue, Def Leppard and Poison are planning to team up for a major tour.
There was renewed interest in the band following the release of their Netflix biopic and the Machine Gun Kelly (real name Colson Baker), who played Tommy Lee in the film, shared his excitement about the reunion.
He said, "Since playing Tommy Lee in The Dirt, so many of my fans have said how they wish they could've seen the real Motley Crue play live. I never thought I would see the day when this would become a reality. But the fans spoke and Motley Crue listened!"
The tour with Leppard and Poison has not yet been officially confirmed. Watch the band blow up their Cessation of Touring agreement.

Speaking for myself, I'm very disappointed in the band.

They left on a pretty high note with that Las Vegas concert.

Now this ?

Crue has lost ALL credibility with me.

Another elderly circus act for the younger lost generations to buy into.

Can the singer still perform?

They lied to the fans. The final tour was a BS cash grab. Nikki Sixx even made a big fuss about how there was no chance they would come back.

Not to mention how terrible Vince Neil is these days. He’s out of breath and can’t remember half the lyrics.

There was a rumor that Live Nation wanted to put it in the contract that Vince Neil had lose 40 lbs. before the tour. I saw him this past summer opening for Sammy Hagar and he looked and sounded terrible.

This is going to be a monster lineup though, with Poison, Crue and Def Leppard all together. I see Poison and DL every chance I get so I'll definitely look into going.

Screw them, I have no use for the assholes lying to their fans and doing exactly what they said they wouldn't. So glad I didn't make more of an effort to see them on their "last" tour.

The “new plan” is to keep going til Mick Mars drops.

They admired Ozzy’s “no more tours” scam.

The bands that are actually serious about not touring anyone are the ones who don't make a big deal about their "final" shows. Rush comes to mind.

Good example

I will start seeing any band that excessively promotes their “final tour” as a red flag.

They signed their damned names to a contract - never again. Wtf ? Bozos.

I like Motley Crue but I could care less, Vince Neil sounds like shit, I don't care he is fat, but the fact he does not even try to sing, what a waste of oxygen

Not too much a waste of oxygen... because he can barely catch his breath. The audience is expected to do half the singing.

Time for Weird Al to make a new parody song...

“Looks That Spill”

Yeah he pissed me off too, and I fell for that back then and saw him on that tour. It didn't bother me all that much, because he at least didn't price gouge the fans and tickets were priced normally. I also fell for Kiss when they retired in 1997. That one pissed me off because not only did they have a very short set, but they charged the shit outta people. Pretty sure they were the last ones I fell for.
