Motley Crue Adds Iowa State Fair to 2024 Tour

It wasn't that long ago that rock fans never thought they'd get a chance to see Motley Crue perform live again.

After all, they did have that infamous press conference in January 2014 when they announced their intentions to hang it up for good after one final tour. They even went as far as signing contracts that supposedly forbade them from playing live again after the conclusion of that tour, December 31, 2015.

That lasted all of seven years.

Motley Crue got their start in Los Angeles in 1981.

They have released nine studio albums over the years, selling more than 100 million copies. One of those albums, Dr. Feelgood, topped the U.S. chart for two weeks in October 1989.

The current version of the band features original members Vince Neil (vocals), Nikki Sixx (bass), and Tommy Lee (drums). Original guitarist Mick Mars was replaced by John 5 in 2022.
