MÖTLEY CRÜE: 'Expect The Unexpected' At Upcoming Fourth Las Vegas Residency

In a new interview with "More", which is broadcast on the FOX5 Las Vegas TV station, MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki Sixx and drummer Tommy Lee spoke about the band's upcoming fourth Las Vegas residency, "Mötley Crüe At The Colosseum At Caesars Palace: Carnival Of Sins In Sin City". The legendary rockers will set up shop at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace starting March 12, 2027, with a total of eight shows running through April 3. Regarding what fans can expect to see at "Mötley Crüe At The Colosseum At Caesars Palace: Carnival Of Sins In Sin City", Tommy said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): "Well, I guess the safe thing to say would be to expect the unexpected because when we get a chance to set up in one place and not move it from city to city, it really opens up a lot of areas for us to just kind of have our way with the place. So, yeah, just expect the unexpected. That's kind of always true with us."

As for how MÖTLEY CRÜE plans to choose the setlist for each show, Nikki said: "That's a great question, and it's one of the hardest things to do is to pick a setlist. We're so grateful that we've been able to survive this industry and ourselves and for 45 years or something like that. So we have so many songs. If we just put all of our Top 10 singles together, we have over a two-hour show. And that's what we mostly do, 'cause we know that those are the big songs that people wanna hear. And this time was different. We put up on Facebook, before we took 'The [Return Of] Carnival Of Sins' tour out this summer, and we let the fans vote. And we were surprised. There were songs on there that I didn't really ever think maybe we would ever play again, like 'Take Me To The Top'. And when we play 'Take Me To The Top', 40,000 people lose their minds, and half of them are, like, 11, 15, 20. We're, like, 'How is this happening?' It's multi-generational thing happening, and it's been really great to dive into some of those old songs. Obviously, we're playing all the hits as well. But it would be great to be able to play a three-hour show to get everything in. It's just not possible."

MÖTLEY CRÜE previously held three residencies in Las Vegas: "Mötley Crüe Takes On Sin City" (2012),"Evening In Hell" (2013) and "The Las Vegas Residency" (2025).

With its fourth Las Vegas residency, MÖTLEY CRÜE brings the hugely successful "Carnival Of Sins" tour to The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, one of Las Vegas's most iconic venues. Featuring stunning visuals and a fan-voted setlist of iconic hits — including songs returning to the stage for the first time in decades — this special limited run of performances promises to highlight the legendary bravado, spectacle, and high-voltage energy only MÖTLEY CRÜE can deliver.
