That’s it – there will be no more Motley Crue touring after ‘The Final Tour’ ends in 2015. And just to verify that they are serious about this, the group signed a ‘Cessation of Touring Agreement’ to guarantee that The Final Tour is the final tour.
The tour will kick off on July 2, 2014 in Grand Rapids, Michigan and hit 72 North American cities before the international leg begins in 2015.
“When it comes to putting together a new show, we always push the envelope and that’s part of Motley Crue’s legacy,” explained Nikki Sixx. “As far as letting on to what we’re doing, that would be like finding out what you’re getting for Christmas before you open the presents. We think in an age of too much information, we’d like to keep some surprises close to our chest until we launch the Final Tour.”
Discussing the official Cessation of Touring Agreement, Tommy Lee said, “Everything must come to an end!! We always had a vision of going out with a big f*** bang and not playing county fairs and clubs with one or two original band members! Our job here is done!!!”
Joining Motley Crue on the road will be special guest Alice Cooper.
“Real hard rock bands are hard to find these days,” said Alice. “Motley has always gone on stage with one attitude, and that’s to blow the audience away. That’s exactly how we do it. Putting Motley Crue and Alice Cooper together is going to be just what this summer really NEEDS. We’re going to go out there and tear it up, and I can’t wait to see Motley on stage. Motley Crue and Alice Cooper–a match made in…Armageddon?”
Tickets will be available to Motley Crue Fan Club members beginning on January 29th at 10am. The general public can buy tickets beginning January 31st at Ticketmaster.com.
