Have Mötley Crüe been working on a new studio album? While representatives are keeping tight-lipped, there have been strong rumors that the rock band is finally returning to the recording studio working on a “back-to-roots album.”
Believe it or not, rumors of Mötley Crüe (Tommy Lee, Mick Mars, Nikki Sixx and Vince Neil) working in a recording studio are true, with as many as eight songs having been put to tape. “It’s still in the early stages,” a source said.
Is the highly anticipated The Stadium Tour still going to happen in 2021?
The answer at this moment is “Yes!” However, we are not totally out of the woods yet with Covid-19 and the recent surge going on in America, so it’s not guaranteed.
As Variety reports, Dr. Anthony Fauci (a top infectious disease expert in the U.S. and chief medical advisor to President Joe Biden) recently said he believes concert venues and theaters could reopen “some time in the fall of 2021.” Fauci stated, “If everything goes right, this is will occur some time in the fall of 2021, so that by the time we get to the early to mid-fall, you can have people feeling safe performing onstage as well as people in the audience.”
In their recently released financial results for the quarter ending on December 31, 2020, Live Nation Entertainment declared that concerts are staged for a big comeback, with 83% of fans still holding on to their postponed concert tickets, and with 64% of fans planning to attend even more live music events than they did before. “We continue to have a substantial tailwind in the live event industry, as consumers more than ever are looking to spend on experiences,” commented Live Nation. “The supply-demand fundamentals of the concerts business remain strong, with artists ready to get back on the road and fans eager to reconnect at events.”
The start of Motley Crue’s impending 2021 stint will mark the band’s first live appearances since ‘The Final Tour’ in 2014 and 2015, which saw the band touring heavily and hitting cities across the world with Alice Cooper in tow. ‘The Stadium Tour’ has already sold 1 million tickets and has grossed $130 million in sales, plus another $5 million worth of VIP seats, according to agents and managers, as reported by Billboard.
Mötley Crüe are said to be planning a worldwide tour at the end of 2022. When contacted, a representative had no information on a new album, or any of the rock band’s future plans.
Fans will be anxiously awaiting…
