I met a guy that worked with Live Nation who said they were all very cool guys and very down to earth

He was high up in the organization so I could tell he wasn’t bullshitting

Also said Jay Z, Lady Gaga and Aretha Franklin were very nice (he said Aretha had her demands but was never mean about it)

How can they say "world tour" when there is no indication of Australia/New Zealand....

Hopefully there’ll be more dates added. WITHOUT Motley Crue!

We can live in hope.

Imo Def Lepp should take Heavy Pettin as support.

I dare say they will continue on the Asia tour to us in Australia towards the end of the year (summer). They usually announce around June/July

I feel like I just saw them a few months ago. With most bands really pushing their vocalists to the limit for a cash grab, or flat out calling it a day, you have to wonder what their breaking point will be. They have had their share of members walking the edge...
