Management: MÖTLEY CRÜE Have 'Some Tricks Up Their Sleeves' For Tomorrow's DVD Shoot

April 26, 2005

A MÖTLEY CRÜE management representative has spoken to John Serba of The Grand Rapids Press about the group's plans to film Wednesday's (April 27) concert at Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids, MI for a DVD to be released later this year. A production crew for the group — reunited with original members Vince Neil, Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee and Mick Mars — is shooting live footage in Grand Rapids. The tour is in support of platinum-selling greatest hits album "Red, White and Crüe".

Although the group already has a three-ring-circus stage set complete with pyrotechnics, acrobats, a flying drum kit and a fire-breathing human, the band has special plans for Wednesday.

"They have some tricks up their sleeves," said Katie McNeil, a representative for MÖTLEY's management company, 10th St. Entertainment. "They felt that Grand Rapids would be a great crowd (for filming the DVD)."

The CRÜE — known for its hard rock hits in the 1980s and its off-stage antics — is headlining one of the most popular concert tours in the country. The band has been selling out numerous venues since hitting the road in mid-February, and has dates scheduled through October.

Tickets for Wednesday's show are still available, but arena manager Rich MacKeigan expects it to sell out.

"It's unique from a production and talent perspective," he said. "Grand Rapids is lucky to be seeing something that not everyone else is seeing."
