Motley Crue Heading Back On The Road

Motley Crue will follow up this summer's Crue Fest amphitheater tour with a North American arena trek, beginning Feb. 2, 2009, at Cox Arena in San Diego and wrapping March 18 at the Cumberland County Civic Center in Portland, Maine.

The 25-city-plus jaunt will feature support from Hinder, Theory of a Deadman and the Last Vegas. Chicago-based the Last Vegas recently won the first Guitar Center On-Stage: Your Chance to Make Rock History contest. Along with an opening slot on Motley Crue's upcoming tour, the rock outfit's prize includes a management contract with Tenth Street Entertainment and a recording deal with Eleven Seven Music.

Ticket prices for the Live Nation-produced Saints of Los Angeles 2009 tour will range from $25 to $75, with public on-sales beginning Nov. 21 in various markets. Other tour partners besides Guitar Center include American Express and Fuse, according to Tenth Street Entertainment/Eleven Seven Music CEO Allen Kovac.

Kovac, who has served as Motley Crue's manager since 1994, says the band's winter jaunt picks up where Crue Fest left off. "These are markets we didn't play," Kovac tells Billboard. "Rock has always been a middle-of-the-country sport, and you have to go to where your fans are."

The inaugural 40-plus-city North American Crue Fest -- which also featured rock acts Buckcherry, Papa Roach, Trapt and Sixx:A.M. -- grossed $16.6 million and drew more than 613,000 concertgoers, according to Billboard Boxscore. The trek followed the June release of "Saints of Los Angeles," the first Motley Crue album in more than a decade recorded by the band's original members. The set has sold 236,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

After March, Motley Crue will break from touring until the summer, when it will visit European cities in June. From there, the band will return stateside from July through September for the second edition of Crue Fest, Kovac says. Support acts for the summer tour are still in the works.

How big is "The Joint"?

[Malcolm]

The Pulse of Radio reports that M?TLEY CR?E just announced the dates and venues for an upcoming North American arena tour on Friday (November 14), but the band also revealed that it will launch a second Cr?e Fest package next year. This past summer's debut Cr?e Fest featured the CR?E, BUCKCHERRY, PAPA ROACH and others, and drummer Tommy Lee told The Pulse of Radio that the band wants to build on its success. "You know what, it's so cool, like, it's been a dream for us," he said. "Like, we've done a bunch of festivals and to have your own is insane. We're like, 'Dudes, I can't believe this, we finally got our own festival, this is incredible!' So we're gonna do a Cr?e Fest II, and hopefully we're gonna add another stage, which we didn't have on this one. You know, it was the first one. But hopefully we'll have a second stage and more bands too."

In the meantime, the CR?E's next trek will hit indoor arenas beginning on February 9 in San Diego and finishing up on March 18 in Portland, Maine.

The bill will also include HINDER, THEORY OF A DEADMAN, and band search contest winners THE LAST VEGAS. Tickets for the road trip go on sale Friday (November 21) in most markets, with prices ranging from $25 to $75.

M?TLEY CR?E is hitting the road in support of its latest studio album, "Saints of Los Angeles", which has sold 240,000 copies in the Unites States since coming out last June, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

M?TLEY CR?E returned to Sunset Blvd., the place where it all began 27 years ago, this past Friday, November 14 for a show at the newly renovated Hollywood Palladium.

I'm sure he does, even though it wasn't a commercial success it was still part of the band's history.

The title is deceiving to the real content of the statement nikki makes.

[AxlsMainMan]

Who cares what a hack like Nikki Sixx thinks.
