    Watched clips from their shows on 'the tour' with kiss.

    He was awful.

    That was 2012 though no?

    I meant recent as in 2015 ones in Oz etc,vocals are rough enough but good compared what he is capable of (stunningly bad :D).

    There'll always be cynicism in these types of things but it feels like more than most bands will do.

    i voted even though i think there is no chance it would pay them to come,

    i'm a bleedin' hypocrite......:o

    Such a shame that a band like the Crue are living on their past and have little interest in releasing an album under their name.

    I doubt they'd produce anything that wouldn't simply be called nostalgic. Plus their musical exploits can go into Sixx AM and other projects like that and it makes more financial sense to tour on nostalgia then to release new material, that might actually hinder their efforts....so yeah, there is reason enough not to do it.

    Guess what no Irish show on the final tour. Can't afford to go to the UK to see them. Ah well


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,868 ✭✭✭furiousox


    Have the new UK dates been announced?
    Can't see anything online.

    EDIT: Never mind, found them.

    have they ever played in Ireland ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,344 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    have they ever played in Ireland ?

    Nope and never will now; They've decided to go to Abu Dhabi and Monaco where they've never gigged before though, I see the arena in Abu Dhabi is called the Du Arena....someone was havin a laugh :D:D:D.

    I'm actually in London that weekend of their show there but I'll check how they are at DL first tickets are pricey enough.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,868 ✭✭✭furiousox

    I'm a fan of Motley Crue. Wish they'd come to Ireland some day, but it looks like they're disbanding at the end of the year so it will never be. Even then, they've never played Ireland before. Such a shame.


  • Registered Users Posts: 37,553 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    possibly heading to the manchester show in november. Have a cheap hotel booked for the night, flights are cheap

    whats the manchester arena like ???


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,868 ✭✭✭furiousox


    Biggest indoor arena in Europe.
    Saw Roger Waters there and the Crue the last time (2012 I think?)
    It's er.....big!
    There's a Travelodge hotel nearby but the arena is centrally located anyway.
    If you're seated you'd need to have a look at the seating plan because you could end up a long way from the stage.
    The standing area is very big so it depends how close you can get yourself to the stage.
    It's an impressive arena though, good modern venue.
    I might end up going to the London gig because it's on a Friday but I'd prefer to be going to Manchester.

    Have been a casual fan of Motley Crue for years (Late eighties).

    Finally got to see them at Download Festival last Sunday. It wasn't the nicest of days .. it was kinda cold and wet ... but the show was awesome. They played their best songs (including their own slightly altered version of 'Anarchy in the UK'). Sound was brilliant and they brought dancing girls (a welcome sight for my weary eyes) and lots of pyrotechnics and flame throwers etc. Overall very Impressive.

    They made a bit of a screw-up with the encore .. they went off stage for what felt like 10 minutes before coming back on with "Home Sweet Home". The crowd had started to disperse.

    KISS were the headliners ..I'd say they were backstage putting on all their auld paint .. and ****ting themselves !! :-(

    Giving serious consideration to seeing them again at one of their other UK shows... special guest Alice Cooper makes it even sweeter.

    If you go to ticketmaster and try to buy a pre-sale ticket using SICKTHINGS as the ALICE COOPER (NOT MOTLEY CRUE) fan club password, it works.

    Seems like I got lucky...got 2 standing tickets for the Wembley Arena gig. I used the ticketmaster app rather than a pc so maybe that's how I got them
