For the first time I saw her live, I had dubbed her the Metal Version of Lady Gaga, she just has a presence that you can’t ignore. Her vocals are spot on and is definitely a crowd pleaser. Then you look to each side of Maria and you are blown away by the guitarists; Chris Howorth on Lead guitar, Randy Weitzel on guitar and Travis Johnson who reminds my son Rockin Ryan of the [Read More]

Motley Crue announces FINAL Tour with Alice Cooper. “ALL BAD THINGS MUST COME TO AN END”

January 28, 2014

Today Motley Crue held a press conference in Hollywood at Beacher’s Madhouse Theater to release as they said, “The Biggest Announcement of Their Career”. Last week during the NAMM convention, we had received the confirmation that Alice Cooper was going to be on their Farewell Tour but of course, since it was all “off the record” we respectfully held back on our reports. Eddie Trunk (That Metal Show) did tweet a photo earlier this month that was to be the ad for the FINAL Tour. The tweet has since been deleted and it was later described as a mock up of a rumor, but here is the photo: MÖTLEY CRÜE will kick off their 72 date tour of North America on July 2nd. In addition to tickets being as inexpensive as $15 or $20 so they can insure that everyone gets a chance to see this FINAL TOUR, they will also have a variety of VIP Packages, including Meet & Greets and are available at www.motleyvip.com. Check out the dates that are listed below: Jul [Read More]
