Beginning February 2, 2009, at Cox Arena in San Diego and wrapping March 18 at the Cumberland County Civic Center in Maine, the veteran rockers will pick up where 40-plus-city North American Crue Fest left off. The 25-city-plus tour will feature support from Hinder, Theory of a Deadman and the Last Vegas (winner of the first Guitar Center On-Stage: Your Chance to Make Rock History contest). Ticket prices will range from $25 to $75, with public on-sales beginning Nov. 21 in various markets.
Kovac, who has served as Motley Crue’s manager since 1994 relates, “These are markets we didn’t play. Rock has always been a middle-of-the-country sport, and you have to go to where your fans are.” After March, Motley Crue will break from touring until the summer, when it will visit European cities in June. From there, the band will return stateside from July through September for the second edition of Crue Fest. Below are Motley Crue’s North American tour dates. Let’s get rockin’!!!
