Mötley Crüe on the status of their stadium tour: “No one knows what’s going on with anything do to with anything” (Updated)

UPDATE 2: New dates for 2021 have been confirmed.

UPDATE: The entire tour has been officially POSTPONED.

Rock/metal legends Mötley Crüe are scheduled to hit the road with Def Leppard, Poison and Joan Jett & The Blackhearts for a hefty summer trek that is set to kick off on June 18 at TIAA Bank Field in Jacksonville, Florida.

Rumors and reports have be circulating claiming that one of the year’s most anticipated tours is in jeopardy and on the brink of being cancelled because of the ongoing COVID-19 threat.

Chatting with fans on Twitter today (April 6) and asked if the tour is still a go, Mötley Crüe stated: “No one knows what’s going on with anything do to with anything. A day at a time,” affirming “There has been no announcement.”

Just a few weeks back, drummer Tommy Lee urged fans to “stay the f**k inside,” because he’s got some “big stadium sh*t to do in June.” Bassist Nikki Sixx shared a similar sentiment, pleading fans to “stay home,” “make some memories,” and/or “do something you’ve always wanted to do” during these quarantined times.

As for singer Vince Neil, he’s apparently been “working out like a madman” in preparation for the stadium trek, as per his longtime girlfriend Rain Hannah (as reported by Blabbermouth via a social media video). Mötley Crüe manager Allen Kovac spoke with Fox Business this past December, claiming that some band members were “working with a trainer” and a “nutritionist” leading up to the start of the tour.

As of this posting, the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) are reporting a total of 330,891 COVID-19 cases in the U.S., and 8,910 total deaths confirmed, with states like New York, Texas, California, Washington, Florida, Illinois, Georgia, Michigan, Louisiana, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut and Massachusetts among the hardest hit.

In the end, the fate of Motley Crue’s summer romp lies in the hands of state authorities and government officials who have issued restrictions on mass gatherings across the nation in an attempt to hopefully control the pandemic disease as soon as possible.
