Mötley Crüe has officially announced the delay of their upcoming Las Vegas residency, with the band attributing the change to frontman Vince Neil's need for a medical procedure. Originally set to begin an 11-show series at the Dolby Live at Park MGM from March 28 to April 19, the performances will now be rescheduled for September.
The newly adjusted dates for the residency are slated to take place from September 12 through October 3. Fans who previously purchased tickets for the original shows will have their tickets honored for the rescheduled performances.
In a statement addressing the situation, Vince Neil said:
“My health is my top priority so I can bring you the awesome shows you deserve, and I can’t wait to return to the stage.”
The rest of the band, Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee, and John 5, shared their best hopes for Neil’s recovery and expressed eagerness for the return to the stage in September.
The exact details of Neil's medical procedure remain undisclosed, reportedly following medical advice. This announcement follows a recent incident where Neil's private jet was involved in a crash, although he was not on board at the time. Two individuals associated with the flight sustained injuries, while the pilot tragically lost his life. An investigation into the incident is currently underway.
Mötley Crüe's most recent release, the EP titled Cancelled, was made available last October, showcasing a cover of the Beastie Boys’ track "Fight For Your Right" and featuring the single "Dogs Of War." This EP marked their first new music in five years. In an earlier statement, Nikki Sixx reflected on the band's evolution over the years and the varied public reception they have experienced.
The new dates are as follows:
Friday, September 12th
Saturday, September 13th
Wednesday, September 17th
Friday, September 19th
Saturday, September 20th
Wednesday, September 24th
Friday, September 26th
