MÖTLEY CRÜE Has Big Plans For 'Crüe Fest II'

November 19, 2008

The Pulse of Radio reports that MÖTLEY CRÜE just announced the dates and venues for an upcoming North American arena tour on Friday (November 14),but the band also revealed that it will launch a second Crüe Fest package next year. This past summer's debut Crüe Fest featured the CRÜE, BUCKCHERRY, PAPA ROACH and others, and drummer Tommy Lee told The Pulse of Radio that the band wants to build on its success. "You know what, it's so cool, like, it's been a dream for us," he said. "Like, we've done a bunch of festivals and to have your own is insane. We're like, 'Dudes, I can't believe this, we finally got our own festival, this is incredible!' So we're gonna do a Crüe Fest II, and hopefully we're gonna add another stage, which we didn't have on this one. You know, it was the first one. But hopefully we'll have a second stage and more bands too."

In the meantime, the CRÜE's next trek will hit indoor arenas beginning on February 9 in San Diego and finishing up on March 18 in Portland, Maine.

The bill will also include HINDER, THEORY OF A DEADMAN, and band search contest winners THE LAST VEGAS. Tickets for the road trip go on sale Friday (November 21) in most markets, with prices ranging from $25 to $75.

MÖTLEY CRÜE is hitting the road in support of its latest studio album, "Saints of Los Angeles", which has sold 240,000 copies in the Unites States since coming out last June, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

MÖTLEY CRÜE returned to Sunset Blvd., the place where it all began 27 years ago, this past Friday, November 14 for a show at the newly renovated Hollywood Palladium. Watch fan-filmed video footage of the concert below (clip uploaded by "lisapolisa").
