MÖTLEY CRÜE Featuring STREET DRUM CORPS' FRANK ZUMMO; Bristow Footage Available

August 24, 2009

Fan-filmed video footage of MÖTLEY CRÜE's August 22, 2009 performance at the Nissan Pavilion in Bristow, Virginia can be viewed below (courtesy of "raaeeevo").

MÖTLEY CRÜE tapped longtime friend and fan Frank Zummo (STREET DRUM CORPS) to fill in for drummer Tommy Lee at the band's last three shows: August 21 in Virginia Beach, Virginia; August 22 in Bristow; and August 23 in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Commented Zummo: "The first concert I ever saw was MÖTLEY CRÜE when I was a kid, and I've been a big fan ever since. It is a huge honor for to drum with one of the greatest rock bands, and filling in for Tommy [is] one of the most amazing experiences of my life!"

Zummo recently spent time in the studio with STREET DRUM CORPS (S.D.C.) bandmates Bobby Alt and Adam Alt working on the group's debut double album, due out early 2010 via Interscope Records.

SEVENDUST drummer Morgan Rose stepped in for Lee at five of MÖTLEY CRÜE's recent dates — August 14 at the Riverbend Music Center in Cincinnati, Ohio; August 15 at Clarkston, Michigan's DTE Energy Music Theatre; August 16 at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania's Post-Gazette Pavilion; August 18 at PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, New Jersey; and August 19 at the Comcast Center Event in Mansfield, Massachusetts.

Lee was forced to sit out the Crüe Fest 2 shows after burning his left hand while playing with a set of sparklers.
