Las Vegas Sun: …Yes, Crue shows have always been events, but not like this. This one is a completely immersive experience.
From the moment you walk out of the parking garage, the Hard Rock’s elevators are covered with signs for the band’s concerts. The casino’s main bar has been redecorated in a circuslike manner, covered with banners for the shows. The casino’s waitresses are wearing Motley Crue shirts — and little else.
Outside of The Joint, some people are dressed as maniacal clowns, while others are on stilts. Even those who take your tickets or walk you to your seat are dressed as if they worked at a circus. To a hard-core fan, none of it feels weird or contrived. It simply feels Crue.

Band brings in aerialists, narrator for special shows

When Mötley Crüe announced late last year they’d be taking up temporary residency in Las Vegas at the Hard Rock Hotel’s Joint, it was one of those ideas that seemed so perfect the only question was, “What took so long?” This was, after all, a band whose celebration of the rock & roll lifestyle has been immoralized in a book and may still make it to film. So, what better place to lay down roots – even for just a few weeks – than in a town nicknamed Sin City?

As they hyped the residency, Crüe promised not just the usual exploits but to take the pyro and girls, girls, girls to new levels of excess. When it kicked off this past weekend, the debauchery was no greater than usual – women on stage several times throughout the show, aerialists and lots of confetti and pyro, but no more craziness than a typical Crüe show. After Saturday’s show, drummer Tommy Lee told Rolling Stone the band is still working out the logistics.

“We’re doing production shit right up until doors open, fucking crazy,” Lee said. “But it’s getting better. It’s gonna be sick in another show or two.”

The band has decided to push their creativity and musicality. There were, of course, many of the expected hits, from “Live Wire,” “Wild Side” and “Shout at the Devil” to “Kickstart My Heart,” “Dr. Feelgood” and the closing “Home Sweet Home,” which began with Lee on a piano that descended from the ceiling. Frontman Vince Neil had his own Peter Pan moment, sailing over the crowd during the song.

But there were also unexpected moments, including a brief acoustic set in the middle of the show that found them all huddled together in a similar manner to U2′s stripped-down concert interludes. For the Saturday night performance, the Crüe turned three songs, starting with “On With the Show” and wrapping with “Don’t Go Away Mad (Just Go Away),” into acoustic numbers.

“Doing the acoustic thing for us is something we’ve been wanting to do forever,” Lee said.

Another new aspect of the performance was the inclusion of a narrator, Genocide, who worked his way through the crowd and stage, introducing the band members and providing occasional levity between songs. It’s another new feature Lee was excited about.

“Being able to work the room with Genocide, our MC, we’ve never done anything like that in an arena, having people pop up here and there,” Lee said.

The quartet is using the stay at the Joint to live out some performance fantasies. “We’re able to place things strategically in the best place in the room, which we wouldn’t really be able to do in arenas,” Lee says. “Being in one place for a while, we’re able to really figure out how to use this building. It’s been fun, interesting.”

The Joint shows run through February 19th, but Lee hopes the band can take lessons from the residency with them on the road. “Now we kind of know what we’re getting into here. Hopefully this’ll set up something else in a bigger venue, a different place,” he says. “You just never know.”

And for anybody who can’t make it out to Vegas this month, you still have the chance to catch the Crüe during the Super Bowl, as they are starring alongside model Ariana Lima and former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Chuck Liddell in a commercial for Kia.

Mötley Crüe will become the first hard rock band to do a Las Vegas residency when they take over the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in February. Dubbed “Mötley Crüe in Sin City,” the residency will include 12 shows between February 3rd and February 19th.

In a conference call to announce the shows, frontman Vince Neil promised “over-the-top craziness. This is Las Vegas. Vegas is based on big, big shows,” Neil said. “This show we are putting together right now is something that we have never done in our lives. This is an interactive show we’re putting on – it’s going to encompass the whole venue, not just the stage that we’re standing on – a 40- by 60-foot stage. This is going to take over the whole place.”

Drummer Tommy Lee said on the call that they’ve imagined doing a show like this for years. “We’ve gone through a lot of the big Vegas production shows and we all have talked about it many times going, ‘God, could you imagine if we could only get our hands on this kind of an opportunity what we could do with it.’”

If there’s anyone who knows about making memories on the road, it’s Tommy Lee. When Lee, who’s touring right now with his dance-music partner DJ Aero, calls a tour “memorable,” you know it must have been special. That’s exactly what Lee says of the last few months on the road opening for Deadmau5. “We had a lot of good times, man. We definitely had a memorable several months,” he tells Rolling Stone. “I have to thank Joel for taking Aero and I out and giving us an opportunity to do what we do in front of his audience. It was really great for us.”

Fans can get a feel for the good times and camaraderie of the tour from this exclusive clip, filmed at the MID in Chicago, where Deadmau5 and singer SOFI make a cameo. “That was near the end, so that was a cap-off and everybody was in the mood to party,” Aero says.

The duo have more opportunities to create memories coming up, first on New Year’s Eve, when they share the stage with, among others, Crystal Method – old friends, says Lee – at a festival in Queenstown, New Zealand. The following weekend finds them spending January 6th-9th on the Holy Ship cruise, produced by the same people who do the HARD Festival. A dance-music cruise, it also features Fatboy Slim, Skrillex, Diplo, Soulwax and many more.
