The Crue still "ruels"...

One of my favourite parts of the show was when Nikki (Sixx - bassist) says:

"I'm gonna ask you to do something you've never been asked to do before....."


"I'm gonna ask everyone to sit down..."


so reluctantly everyone sits down and Nikki continues...


"I want everyone to look around to the rest of the audience..."


so everyone looks around and then Nikki says:

"This is what it's like at an Ashlee Simpson concert....what an untalented bitch!"


lmfao....enjoy n' tawk amongst yo'selves....

Saw The Crue in NY city at the Garden for my birthday..great show. I was impressed by vince's vocals. Especially when they played Look's That Kill. Just saw them recently at Jones Beach..another great show. I definately had my Motley fix!!

Saw them & Sum 41 at Hartford a little over a week ago. I was never a big Crue fan, but I like a few of their songs and heard they out on a heck of a show. They did not dissapoint! Very glad I went, and they sounded great! Sum 41 was good too and as mentioned on another thread they played the beginning of Hot For Teacher.

[Dirty Duck]

I'll be honest brother..I totally missed Sum 41..I was in the parking lot taking care of biz. Byt yeah,,they did not dissapoint! They closed the show with "anarchy in the Uk"...

The Ottawa show back in the winter was very good. Mick lost his guitar on Looks that Kill, so that sucked, but they forged through it with just the bass pounding. A-la Spinal Tap, his guitar finally kicks in just as the song is ending, and Vince yells "Welcome back Mick Mars!"

I really dislike it when shows take an intermission, even if they're long shows. It just sort of cuts into the excitement. I don't want to take a break as soon as you get going.

Saw them in clarkston MI and it was the shit. They have been on a long stretch and just rocked stronger as the night went on. Hell of a show. They had the midgets the crue sluts bitches pissin sparks while nikki does the monster movie intro to Dr. feelgood while dressed like the villian from Hellboy. or hitler or something. and best of all Tommy's Tittie Cam. Nikki even picked mick's nose and ate it. Vince sounded great. wass very cool

I saw them in Manchester,Uk back in June and it was fantastic, especially when they played Live Wire, Too Young to fall in love and Dr. Feelgood

Heading over to the Ampitheater in about an hour...

Show starts at 7:30 with no opening band...

Nice....

Review tomorrow....

[Dirty Duck]

Two low points of the show?


1) Tommy's Hip hop/techno/drum solo crap..(all i wanted was drums man!!! Drums!!)

2)That STUPID CARTOON during the break..what the fuck was that anyway. Motley crue animated is pretty scary..

[Va Beach VH Fan]

I'd agree with #1, I was very disappointed in Tommy's solo...

I think the cartoon was just a way to kill some time for the fans during the intermission.... Harmless...

Once again, as this was the 3rd time seeing the Crue in concert ('87 in Tokyo, '00 here in Va Beach the others), those boys still put on one helluva entertaining show...

I'd estimate the crowd around 10-12,000... There were some empty rows towards the back of the reserved seating area and the lawn wasn't full....

The band was exactly one hour late, coming on at 8:30... I've read several reviews on this tour, and nearly every one of them says they were late... It's a long show if you start at 7:30, so if they're gonna be late, why not just say it's gonna start at 8:30, ya know ??

First, I know I'm getting old, but as I said, I've read a lot of reviews, and they all say the same thing that I'm gonna say, it was fucking loud... Maybe my thinking on this has changed over the years, but it seemed to distort from hearing the music as clearly...

Great setlist (this may not be verbatim, I copied it;)

Shout At The Devil
Too Fast for Love
Ten Seconds To Love
Red Hot
Too Young To Fall In Love
Looks That Kill
Livewire
Girls, Girls, Girls
Wildside
Home Sweet Home
Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away)
Louder Than Hell
DR Feelgood
Same Old Situation
If I Die Tomorrow
Kickstart My Heart
No Encore (no more music past 11PM here)

Onstage: Typical Crue show, with plenty of scantly clad honeys and midgets...Loved the macabre makeup that Nikki and Mick were wearing... Mick looked like he was moving around much better than earlier in the year....

Tommy's "titty cam" was pretty funny for a couple of minutes, but he let it drag on for well over 10 minutes.... While I never complain about seeing a decent set of tatas, the majority of these sets should have stayed indoors....

And once again, Tommy's solo was pretty lame, as opposed to what he's plenty capable of.... Say what you will, but I refer to Tommy Lee as this generation's John Bonham... Meaning, he's no Neal Peart, nor was Bonham, but for power drumming, you don't get much better than Tommy.... But his Peter Pan act, swinging above the stage between percussion sets, took away from what should have been a good drum solo....

Overall, again, you can do much worse for an evening's entertainment than to watch these boys for a night.....
