*Afterparty Update*

-

Just when you thought your Friday night couldn’t get any better, an amazing afterparty has just being announced for the Motley Crue concert! The party will take place at Blush Ultraclub which is literally right across the street from the concert. As we previously reported, Blush recently closed to be renovated into a Sports Bar but they have halted construction and tear down for this one last show! Check out the official details and some wicked sample videos of what to expect below:

-
“Djing a mix of Dirty Electro House Music”
-
Most big DJs are rock stars nowadays, but Tommy is a “REAL” Rock star, who turned DJ, and that is something unique on it’s own with it’s own kind of buzz!
-
Combining his world-renown drumming skills for Motley Crue and Rockstar Supernova, with his new passion for turntablism, Tommy Lee takes a spot behind the decks with DJ Aero. In the rapidly evolving world of electronic music performance, Tommy Lee has leapt to the front of the pack with this exciting new fusion that has captivated club goers from Ibiza to Michigan.
-
Since discovering him in 1999, the legendary bad boy, Tommy Lee has brought DJ Aero along on tours with his various rock outfits. Now the two have been pairing up as a DJ team, supplying remixes of their own, as well as spinning other performers’ work. Their genres of choice include analog bass, breakbeat and dirty electro house. The obvious talent of DJ Aero keeps the show moving smoothly while Tommy does what Tommy does best gets the crowd to go wild in addition to performing all the special effects with his laptop/keyboard/and assorted effect box’s.
-
With unbelievable presence and energy on stage, the show escalates to another level when Tommy Lee gets behind the decks! Seeing it for the first time, the audience does not know what to expect, but they all walk away having experienced a truly moving and original performance!

Concert

I missed these guys last time they were here and will definitely not make that mistake again. Having just released their Greatest Hits album, the crowd can expect a great selection of some of Motley’s classic songs.  Combine great music with the ridiculous on stage antics that Motley Crue always brings (Titty Cam etc.) and you got a recipe for a great show.

-

I also just recently finished reading Motley Crue’s autobiography “The Dirt” and would highly recommend it. Very entertaining read whether you are a current fan or not.

From Wikipedia:

Mötley Crüe is an American hard rock band formed in Los Angeles, California in 1981. The band was founded by bass guitarist Nikki Sixx and drummer Tommy Lee, who were later joined by lead guitarist Mick Mars and lead singer Vince Neil. Mötley Crüe has sold more than 80 million album copies worldwide, including 25 million in the U.S.

The band members have often been noted for their hard-living lifestyles; all members have had numerous brushes with the law, have spent time in jail, have suffered long addictions to alcohol and drugs, have had countless escapades with women, and are heavily tattooed. Their ninth studio album entitled Saints of Los Angeles was released on June 24, 2008, while a film adaptation of their best-selling autobiography The Dirt is due to be released in 2011.
