Mötley Crüe postpones Las Vegas residency due to singer Vince Neil’s ‘medical procedure’

veed by vocalist Vince Neil’s doctors,” the band began their announcement on social media.

In a heartfelt message to their fans, Neil expressed his disappointment in having to postpone the shows but emphasized that his health is his top priority. Despite his regrets, Neil expressed gratitude for the well wishes and support he has received from fans. The other band members, Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee, and John 5, also chimed in with a joint statement, asking for understanding and support while wishing Neil a speedy recovery.

Originally set to commence in March, Mötley Crüe’s residency was planned to include 11 shows running through mid-April. However, due to Neil’s impending medical procedure, the dates have been rescheduled for September and October. Fans who purchased tickets for the original dates need not worry, as the tickets will remain valid for the new show dates.

This delay in the Las Vegas residency comes after Mötley Crüe announced their return to the stage after nearly a decade of retirement. The band had initially signed a Cessation of Touring agreement in 2015, but they decided to come out of retirement to provide their fans with a new and intimate live music experience. Bassist Nikki Sixx explained that the band wanted to revisit some of their classic songs and incorporate requests from fans into their setlist, promising a unique and special experience for their Las Vegas audience.

A charitable component is also integral to Mötley Crüe’s residency, as a portion of the ticket sales will be donated to the Nevada Partnership for Homeless Youth, highlighting the band’s commitment to giving back to the community. However, the excitement surrounding the band’s return was momentarily overshadowed by a recent incident involving Vince Neil’s private jet.

Several weeks ago, Neil’s Learjet was involved in a tragic collision in Scottsdale that left one person dead and several others injured. Although Neil was not on board at the time of the incident, the news of the mishap added to the band’s recent challenges. A statement issued by Neil’s representative expressed gratitude for the first responders who assisted during the incident and conveyed Neil’s condolences and support for those affected by the crash.

As fans eagerly await the new show dates for Mötley Crüe’s Las Vegas residency, the band’s supporters are coming together to wish Vince Neil a speedy recovery and express their understanding and encouragement during this challenging time. Despite the setbacks, Neil’s health remains a top priority, ensuring that when he returns to the stage in September, he will deliver the unforgettable shows that fans both expect and deserve.
