Mötley Crüe has signed on to perform 12 shows at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. They have taken on residency.
Residency in Las Vegas was more for stars such as Frank Sinatra and Wayne Newton. Mötley Crüe is the first heavy metal band to take on residency in Vegas. Santana had residency in Vegas also, but they are not considered a heavy metal band.
Rolling Stone Magazine reports singer Vince Neil as saying, "This is Las Vegas. Vegas is based on big, big shows, This show we are putting together right now is something that we have never done in our lives. This is an interactive show we're putting on - it's going to encompass the whole venue, not just the stage that we're standing on - a 40- by 60-foot stage. This is going to take over the whole place."
