The headline leads me to believe that I can catch some old school metal shows in Vegas. Is this true?

Where's Vince Neil?

I'd watch them, particularly if I was at the hotel for a business conference. I suspect that's where most of the tickets are going to be sold.

There's been worse in Vegas.

I see a stage, a room full of 3 piece suits full of fat 40ish businessmen, all pumping their fists in the air and making devil horns....

No, I don't think there HAS been worse in Vegas.

Oh (anti)-Christ, you're one of those.

Get over yourself. Motley Crue was a fun rock band that you could have a kick ass time getting wasted at a concert to or blast while driving around as a teenager. Sorry if it didn't satisfy the sensibilities of you and your Dark Lord.

I'm with Mugato. How can you listen to Dr. Feelgood and not rock out? After all, he is the one that makes you feel alright.

I always thought their name was silly.

I imagined that at some point they were moments away from calling themselves Wäcky Croüd or Dïverse Gæng or something like that.

The move to Las Vegas, from a demographic point of view, makes sense.

Their fans are becoming older and they probably want to vacation with their families. Since Las Vegas is an entertainment center, it makes sense.

It's just that I get it I grew up in the Death Metal capital of the US. Cannibal Corpse, Morbid Angel, Deicide, I was tortured on stage at a Genitorturers show at the Masquerade at Ybor City. Dated girls with the entire backs of their Toyotas littered with bumper stickers for bands they hope no one ever heard of so that they could school them on "real" metal...it's all the same five chords and growling and they're all about as Satanic as Marilyn Manson or Kiss before them. So sorry if I'm not impressed by your laundry list of cowboys from hell.

Vince Neil has lived in Vegas for a while so maybe that had something to do with this. Then again, Nikki Sixx is quite adept at whoring so there's that too.

That none of them are dead yet is a miracle I rank up there with the loaves and fishes.

Mötley Crüe's first two albums (Live Wire and Shout at the Devil) were definitely metal. But after that they became more of an MTV-friendly hard rock band.

Because it's shiat. That's how. Crue isn't even bad Metal. It's just bad music.

I don't hate everything Motley Crue ever did that I heard, but Dr. Feelgood just didn't work.

Actually, the number of times they've each been dead and come back to life is pretty much putting Jesus to shame. I mean, Jesus only managed to do it once.

Mick Mars has health issues not related from drug use. He has ankylosing spondylitis, so actually he looks pretty good for having his hips, and knees replaced. He probably also feels like shiat that his daughter has it as well. Mick Mars is the most talented member in that band.

Nikki Sixx claims sobriety and is doing a radio show (while on tour I'm assuming) called Sixth Sense with Kerri Kasem.
