LAS VEGAS, NV. (Top40 Charts/ MSO) Three decades after beginning its iconic journey of debauchery and decadence, M?TLEY CRUE has announced plans to invade Las
Vegas with the city's first-ever hard rock residency: MOTLEY CRUE IN SIN CITY. The world's most notorious band will be heading to the world's most notorious city where they will perform an extended run - starting February 3 through 19 - at The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. Tickets go on sale tomorrow, Saturday, December 3 at www.motley.com, www.thejointlasvegas.com, www.ticketmaster.com and the venue box office. VIP seating and packages will also be available. The shows are produced by AEG Live.
2012's MOTLEY CRUE IN SIN CITY show is sure to leave the loud impression that what happens in Vegas will be heard around the world. Vocalist VINCE NEIL, guitarist MICK MARS, bassist NIKKI SIXX and drummer TOMMY LEE have big plans for MOTLEY CRUE IN SIN CITY to create a never-been-done-before and incredibly interactive Vegas experience. Exact details about the show - expected to supersede the band's high standard of production - are being kept under wraps for now to keep an element of surprise for fans. The engagement falls during a holiday-packed time in the calendar year: Super Bowl Sunday, Valentine's Day and President's Day.
Last night the band officially announced the news on CNN's "Piers Morgan Tonight." Watch the full hour-long interview with Tommy Lee, Vince Neil, Nikki Sixx, and Mick Mars tonight at 9pmET/PT.
"It is a dream come true for me especially living in and loving Las Vegas," says singer Vince Neil. "I am thrilled that a guy like Piers Morgan would help kick it off!" Adds drummer Tommy Lee, "I don't know about you, but when I think of MOTLEY CRUE I think of filthy sex, drugs, a REALLY big show and way too much fun... sounds like Las Vegas doesn't it? A match made in heaven!!!"
"We are very excited to announce our upcoming partnership with legendary rockers MOTLEY CRUE," said Paul Davis, vice president of entertainment at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. "The one-of-a-kind production will be the most unique, interactive, fan-driven concert experience the band has ever created.
