MÖTLEY CRÜE Singer Berates Audience, Walks Out
August 16, 2002MÖTLEY CRÜE frontman Vince Neil walked off a nightclub stage in a huff — apparently because the audience didn't know the lyrics of some of his solo numbers, according to the Associated Press.
Neil was performing with a backup band in Steamboat Springs, Colorado Thursday night. Jim Turczynski, manager of Levelz nightclub, says Neil played a few MÖTLEY CRÜE tunes, then played a few of his own. That's when it got ugly. The manager says Neil yelled some obscenities, called the crowd "losers" and walked out.
There was no comment from Neil or his lawyer.
The club's refunding the $25 tickets. The manager says he may lose money on the show, since it cost $12,000 to hire Neil.
