Who's in? I'll be at Allentown, PA show.

My favorite band as a early teen. Never had a chance to see them, I was too young. By the time I could drive, Pearl Jam came out.

    Me and a few friends are going to the show in Cincinnati. I'm not a huge fan or anything but it'll be fun. I got free tickets to see them back in 2000 and they did a good show.

    Saw them in 2005 and 2009... Well worth the money (although, many say Vince is lazy and hardly sings full verses). Tommy Lee is one of rock's great drummers (very distinctive sound much like Charlie Watts and Neil Peart have their own distinctive sounds.). If you want to go to a fun rock concert, this is it! May go see them if they announce an Ottawa/Montreal show.

    I got a ticket for their Toronto show at Molson Canadian Amphitheatre on Sunday, August 10. I will sit in Section 203, Row J, Seat 27. Got it from the Alice Cooper Fan club pre-sale. This will be the first and only time I see Motley Crue and the 2nd time I see Alice Cooper (saw him open for Iron Maiden in July 2012).

    Seating chart: I will be a bit further from Section 202.

    This is the 2nd show I added for Molson Canadian Amphitheatre, the 1st being Arcade Fire on Friday, August 29. I'm also hoping to add Dave Matthews Band on June 24 and hopefully, Nine Inch Nails will also play there.

    I saw them once on the Doctor Feelgood World Tour. One of my students wanted to see them as their first concert, not a favorite band of mine but they have a few songs that are fun to hear. The only thing I can remember was the girl dancers they had and the nurse outfits were HOT! I don't remember much else just the hot girls.

    They were my favourite band when I was growing up in the 80s but I didn't get a chance to see them until 2005. I saw them again with Kiss last year and they were both fun shows.

    As long as you can accept the fact that Vince can't sing for shit live you'll enjoy yourself :) Tommy is always good to watch, his "drum-coaster" last year was pretty cool

    Too rich for my blood. Plus, the closest they're coming to me is Jones Beach.

    My favorite band as a preteen, and I did get to finally see them on the Dr. Feelgood tour. That'll have to do.
    I SAW PEARL JAM

    love the crue growing up....and still enjoy em"....seen them in 83', then again in late 80's and again 4 years ago....always entertaining....just don't understand why bands announce "Farewell tours'.....unless your literally in your 80's or have money like U2 or the Stones.... Cause sure the Crue have replenished their bank accounts the last few years touring non stop......but, they could easily be in need of cash again here in another 10 years....so, come on... ..IMO...come up with another reason than "Farewell" tour..... you know nothings for certain....

    I haven't seen Motley Crue, but I did see Vince Neil basically trying to do Motely Crue all by himself at a Casino outside of Vancouver. It was a fucking gong show. The entire crowd got falling down drunk and were too wasted to really even know what the fuck was happening on stage, and then someone threw a few beer bottles at Vince, and he stormed off stage and didn't return. \m/ :P
    I lost my cell phone that night too. :(

    Yeah will it be like Tom Petty's farewell tour? Or Maybe NIN's farewell tour. Sick of these fuckers cashing on on "last tours" only to unretire two years later.

    They signed a binding agreement that no band member will tour as motley again. Who knows how air tight it is, but they say they're done for sure, forever. They said they didn't want to call it a farewell tour, cause it sounds iffy...final is final...they bitched about other bands like Kiss doing multiple farewell tours and insist they won't. I guess we'll see.
    They were my first show ever, in maple leaf gardens, with whitesnake - girls girls girls tour. Have seen them a few times since. Feelgood tour was one of the most entertaining live shows I've seen...saw their reunion tour and was disappointed - Vince sounded like ass....went again for carnival of sins and Vince sounded better than ever....pretty sure he's autotuning.
    I will be there to say goodbye to my fav childhood band. Got decent floor seats. Too bad it's almost a year away :/

    Nothing says farewell tour like a Groupon deal!

    I think I saw these guys on the Dr. Feelgood tour and it was awesome. I never even looked at the stage because girls were constantly flashing the band. That was a fun night.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    It was never a farewell tour for Nine Inch Nails. Trent specifically stated that these would be their final shows for the foreseeable future. Final shows for the foreseeable future is a really different thing than a farewell tour.

    I'm in for Ridgefield, WA (just outside of Portland, OR). One of my favorite groups growing up. Should be a good show, entertaining if nothing else. Oh, and Alice Cooper to open, hell yes!

    They can't possibly sell out these big sheds in the summer, can they? Even with Alice Cooper?

    Even they are not a favorite band of mine ill never be surprised that they CAN SELLOUT large summer arenas. All that's needed is some controversy and it will draw the out the hot ladies and who follows them horny men. I saw Vince Neil at his club here in Palm Beach Dr Feelgood. It was ok but not really a club to dance more for picking up real young chicks.
