Motley Crue Tune Up for Summer Tour

Video: Behind the Scenes With Mötley Crüe

About an hour before showtime, here's how the four members of Mötley Crüe spend their time: Singer Vince Neil lifts weights. Bassist Nikki Sixx plays loud music. Drummer Tommy Lee plays unbelievably loud music. "The music is on 'stun,' " Lee brags. And guitarist Mick Mars meditates as far away from Lee as possible. "When we all shared dressing rooms, I was a wreck," Mars says. " 'Dude, do you have to beat on the trash can? Let's...

I defiantly want to see them!

I know Mick Mars was sick. Does anybody know what his medical situation was? They look like they haven't slowed down a bit!

In Chicago they are a $100 ticket to get a seat, lawn seats are a bit cheaper. It has been a while since I have been to a concert that isn't a small time thing, Is this the standard for most national acts now?

We were going to see Crue about 3 years ago on the Red White & Crue tour, I bought the tickets, a few weeks later my wife found out she was pregnant. Being only a few months preg, it wasn't the best idea to test the Dr.'s 'It should be OK' comment.

Rush came to Jacksonville a few months ago and tickets were $85 and up. Needless to say, I didn't go. I used to think $35-$40 was a lot for ticket back in the 90s. It's way too expensive now.

I saw them for free in 2000 because I had a friend who worked at a readio station and we "won" the tickets. Then my wife saw them in about '03 because she worked for the parking crew and they got to see the shows for free.

Mick Mars has some sort of hereditary arthritis-like condition that affects his hip(s). It affects him more than that now just because it limits his activity. There was something on vh1 the other day, it said that whenever they reunited for carnival of sins, Mick weighed like 105lbs.

the average i have been paying for concert tickets is about 50 bucks each. i have bought several at that price in the past couple years.

i have never been to a motley crue show, but i imagine they would by pretty entertaining. i have always liked them fairly well.
