MÖTLEY CRÜE has canceled its previously announced “Crüe Year’s Eve” concert on December 31 at Acrisure Arena in Palm Springs, California due “issues beyond [the band’s] control.”
Earlier today (Thursday, December 21), MÖTLEY CRÜE released the following statement via social media: “It is with deep regret we must inform you the Crüe Year’s Eve show in Palm Springs is being canceled. The very short timeframe to produce the event resulted in issues beyond our control. We look forward to seeing you all in 2024!”
Rumor going around is that the sluggish ticket sales for the gig prompted Crue management to pull the plug on the concert. The group’s popularity has plummeted after the band was named in a lawsuit versus their ousted 72-year-old guitarist Mick Mars who said the band “ripped him off” and was faking fans out by using ‘backing tracks’ for main instrumentation and lead vocals at all their concerts last year, believe it or not.
The Palm Springs concert would have marked MÖTLEY CRÜE‘s first performance since it completed “The World Tour” in November in Melbourne, Australia with DEF LEPPARD.
I called it again months before everyone else!!
