Ohh dear - more news and more store exclusive items detected. But first and perhaps more interesting than I care to admit, new Vince neil album coming.
"In an announcement that has sent shockwaves through the rock music community, Vince Neil, iconic lead singer of the legendary rock band Mötley Crüe, has unveiled plans for a brand-new solo album along with an exciting upcoming tour. The news has not only surprised fans of Mötley Crüe but also has rock enthusiasts buzzing, eager to hear what the rock legend has in store after years of speculation and anticipation.
A New Era for Vince Neil: A Solo Adventure Begins.
Vince Neil’s announcement came earlier this week through a post on his social media platforms. For years, Neil’s fans have been hoping for a solo album from the frontman, and it seems that wish is finally coming true. The new project is set to showcase a unique sound that blends Neil’s hard-hitting rock style with fresh, innovative elements.
According to insiders, the album promises to be an exciting mix of classic Mötley Crüe energy fused with contemporary influences, giving fans a modern take on the signature sound that made Neil one of rock’s most beloved voices. While specific details about the album remain under wraps, Neil has hinted that the new material will include both personal and reflective tracks, with lyrics that delve into the highs and lows of his storied career. He shared that the album is meant to capture his journey, both as an artist and as an individual, offering fans a glimpse into his evolution over the years.
“I’ve been working on this album for a long time,” Neil said in a statement. “This project means a lot to me, not just as a musician but as a person. It’s a reflection of where I’ve been, where I’m at, and where I’m going. I can’t wait to share it with my fans. It’s time to rock!” The album will feature collaborations with some renowned artists in the rock and metal genres, but Neil has kept the list of contributors under wraps for the time being, leaving fans on edge with anticipation. However, rumors have swirled about potential appearances by some of Neil’s old bandmates, adding to the speculation that the Mötley Crüe spirit will live on through this new work.
As if the album announcement wasn’t enough, Neil also shocked the world with the reveal of a tour to promote the new record. This marks his first major solo tour in over two decades, following a few smaller-scale performances in the past. The upcoming shows promise to be an exciting fusion of classic Mötley Crüe hits and new solo material, ensuring fans of both his solo work and his legendary band will have something to look forward to.
The tour is expected to begin in late summer 2025, with Neil scheduled to perform across North America, Europe, and select dates in Asia. The announcement has already sent ticket sales soaring, with many venues reportedly selling out within hours of the announcement. For Mötley Crüe fans, it’s a chance to see Vince Neil in a new light, as he takes the stage as a solo artist while still honoring the rock roots that made him a household name.
In a post, Neil shared his excitement for the tour: “It’s been a while since I’ve been out on the road, and I’m beyond excited to hit the stage again. There’s nothing like the energy of a live show, and I can’t wait to share this new chapter with all of you!”
Neil’s performances are expected to be a high-energy, rock-filled spectacle, featuring electrifying stage setups and all the over-the-top theatrics that have become synonymous with his career. Fans can expect a mix of new songs from the upcoming album along with a generous dose of Mötley Crüe’s biggest hits, such as “Kickstart My Heart,” “Shout at the Devil,” and “Dr. Feelgood.”
Mötley Crüe’s Legacy and Vince Neil’s Ongoing Influence,the news of Neil’s new album and solo tour comes on the heels of Mötley Crüe’s recent reunion tour, which proved to be a massive success and reminded the world of the enduring appeal of the rock group. Although Mötley Crüe had declared that they were “retiring” after their final tour in 2015, the band’s recent re-emergence, fueled by the success of the Netflix biopic The Dirt, demonstrated that their place in rock history is far from over.
Despite the band’s collective decision to reunite for certain performances, many Mötley Crüe fans have expressed excitement for the possibility of Neil continuing to carve his own path. His return as a solo artist signifies that the frontman still has plenty to offer the rock world, and his new music promises to showcase a more personal side of the singer that fans have yet to see in full. Neil’s ability to captivate audiences with his raw energy, powerful vocals, and larger-than-life persona has never been in question, and his new solo album and tour are poised to solidify his place as one of rock’s most influential and resilient figures.
As Vince Neil prepares for this thrilling new chapter, the future of rock music seems to be in good hands. The resurgence of iconic artists like Neil, coupled with a renewed interest in classic rock, signals that the genre is alive and well. Fans are eager to see how Neil’s solo career evolves, and what legacy he will leave as one of the greatest rock frontmen of all time.
For now, the world waits eagerly for the release of Vince Neil’s new album and the commencement of his tour, marking what could be one of the most exciting moments in rock music for years to come. With his unstoppable energy and undeniable talent, Vince Neil is once again proving that rock and roll will never die."
We will see how it unfolds.
But surely this is great to hear. I personally think his cover albums or say last two releases have been positive suprises to me. No matter the help from high tech stuff to make him sound good.
He is no good anymore so I am sure the hitech shit is being used massively. But as an album fuck that I dont care. I am not touring to see or hear.
In about two weeks more I will also know if I am about to sit with a small chance for getting somethings (small things) but new patches that are from Pull the Plus Patches. As a company they have all sorts of bands but all embrodied official patches only available there. I love to get them. There are several. From Too Fast up till The End Tour... interesting.
One month away too for the record store day with the Smoking In The Boys Room picture disc that is already safe and secured. Really wonder what they will do for the T.O.P. boxset to come later in the fall.
Its far from their best album but my personal favorite period. So it matters. We shall see. One small step at a time.

So it got out today that the recidency is pushed till September. Vince Neil andhis doctors orders. But it is not coming out that he actually suffered from a stroke recently. The band and management does not want the details to come out.
MÖTLEY CRÜE's Las Vegas Residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM, originally scheduled for March 28n- April 19, 2025, is moving to September 2025 due to a required medical procedure recently advised by vocalist Vince Neil's doctors.
Neil says: "To all the Crüeheads who were looking forward to see us this spring, I'm truly sorry. My health is my top priority so I can bring you the awesome shows you deserve, and I can't wait to return to the stage. Thank you for all the well wishes that keep reaching me. Your support means more than you know."
Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee and John 5 of MÖTLEY CRÜE shared in a joint statement: "Please join us in wishing Vince a speedy recovery. We are looking forward for him to get well again and to take over Vegas together in September. We can't wait to see you all out there, and thank you for your understanding and support in the meantime."
Tickets from the original spring residency dates will remain valid and be honored for the new September show dates.

It is a for now complete hush hush due to business reasons and not all are to be published for financial business reasons. But in all honesty can any be too shocked about this? Neil has for a decade been massively overweight and alcohol user so he looked like an overstuffed balloon not too long ago. A body in his age reacts to things so – NO – I personally kind of went ”wait what?” when I was informed. But a second after not at all suprised. He just did not listen to his previoous doctor.
Now that it is pushed till then half a year ahead I doubt they will be doing anything live till then. And also I doubt that it is rock solid that it will actually happen in September. Vince should no longer be doiing this at al. He should be thankful for whats gaibned and retire enjoy his remaning time of life and that is it. We will see. Lots of inside speculations for sure.
Stuff awaited from a few people again in the coming moth I guess. But also I am an invividual has changed a bit in the sense of the previous metioned thing that just kind of came over me. I am still calm. I am still really much more relaxed and far more balanced even though things have not changed for the better in income and possibilities to aim for future vacations etc. That is more than likely a completely done with topic for me.
Hawaii which seems way back now was what I think my last huge vacation. Crue stuff – it is the year of the Theatre of Pain album so a little focus on that right now I think. Come April and fall the album will see its releases and different versions and merch line so …yeah that shall be great. Looking forward to that. And just hoping for the best.
February 25,
I am perhaps going in to a new era of my own life. Slowly getting the sense of new kind of foreign thoughts. New lines comes into my already ongoing thinking I think. I choose to call it changes to come. I just need to figure out what it is and what it means as well as accepting it I guess. I start to get curious about these thoughts for sure. Hope they are coming around – well let me just say it to help me. Change me, finding new calmness on different terms so to speak.
Things happening around me seems to affect me much more than I actually hoped for. Things are in no way getting better, safer, more likeable or anything like that. We have a pretending to be good friends with Putin in Russia in the latest scam in politics running the precidency of United States.
Trump is a dangerouons man. He is not a politician. He is a greedy selfcentered buisness man with only own interest and goal settings from personal wishes that can and will benefit only him. He is an attention seeker and is by far in need of being loved and aproved by the American billionaires. He is NOT fit for running what you call peoples interest and whats best for the world. A matter a fact anything happening outside his life is of no interest to him. I honestly do think the world could come to a shitty end and Europe is nothing but a fucked middleland for the giants and has nothing to say.
So with that said and especially after or should I say during a home game in hockey here in town last night we lost in a BAD WAY. God forbid this team should be allowed to play in this league. But when I realized it was over for them something got added to this strange new way of thinking for me. It was like …THERE IT IS… and all air of nervousness, irritations and other negative words kind of just left my body. I change focus. I no longer really care for better and things happening. So I am planning on a new focus with new thigns and Motley Crue is to be still a part of it but in a far more relaxed way.
I know Sixx is not gonna change. And with the latest on Vince Neil having a stroke – it was a long time coming – I do not see things gettinga ny better. I would hope for his sake that he now decides to just retire. Face the facts he is playing with fire and has for decades. He needs to not have a touring life. Sixx needs to come to terms with a more relaxed and better place in the background not in the damn spotlight all the time. Tommy – I dont know man, he at tiems seems like he has found his adulthood in himself then again no. Mick, well I just hope he gets to put out another record and possibly a book. An honest to god book with no bullshit.
The site has gotten a few updates again and more is to come. The hopefully new me will take me through the last bit of darkness here now and see me come out with a balanced mind and not to be so pissed at the world no more. It takes up all of me. And I am beginning to see that life is perhaps not so fucking easy to just self control as they say out there – not anymore.
12 February,
It just does not end. The tragedy. The happenings around the band and or members of Motley Crue.
A plane owned by lead singer Vince Neil was in Arizona`s Scottsdale Airport involved n a fatal accident on Monday afternoon, according to officials.
One person died after an airplane, a Learjet 35A, crashed into a parked plane, a Gulfstream 200 business jet, after landing at Scottsdale Airport, a Scottsdale Fire Department spokesperson, confirmed the death and four injuries, adding that two people are in critical condition.
Kelli Kuester, a spokesperson for Scottsdale Airport, said at an evening news briefing that the Learjet was arriving from Austin, Texas, and veered off the runway into a parked jet. The arriving plane's left main gear appeared to have failed upon landing, causing the collision, Kuester said. VinceNeil was not on the plane. But his wife Rain seems to have suffered quite hard. Five broken ribs and what not. “More specific details regarding the collision are not available as this is a rapidly evolving situation,”
All in all I have a bit of hard time, taking in all that is going on, the bad stories of happenings - before they go public. I must admit I wonder if the band and the mebers truly can continue to hold it together till the Sixx wish - 2031. To mark the 50th anniversary.
I do not see this happening with too much live activity at least. But then again they are stubborn, ego minded creeps that have won over tons of strange and serious stuff. However they are not youngsters no more.
I can only look at myself and honestly say life changes man, and there are so many things that plays a part and a new part the older you get. I DO NOT LIKE IT but there is no way around it at all. There simply is not.
On a better note the site is updated with passes, articles, Mick solo stuff, laminates and a few other things. I am as we speak waiting for some stuff from my Japanese friend Torigo, and some magazines from my other friend of the Czech Republic. And then ofcause a friend in America that has gotten hold of some other small stuff.
Paul Miles, most remember him from his site is chronological Crue, The Dirt book, his own time tracking books of happenings in the Crue world. He is now out this week with two new books filled with interviews of people working with being realted to or has a story in the Crue history. There are as said two books part one and two. Fairly cheap small pocket size books. They are to be expected soon. Could be interesting to read. Unsure but some its and parts probably.
In about a month it is time ofr the 3rd round of a Crue Recidency in Las Vegas. I have personally covered the first two. Not attending the third to come. It is with bitter sweetness, that I stay put at home. I would have loved to say all three - merch wise - fully covered. But it is not going to happen. The singer of London (yes Nikki old band though different singer) is going to be there and has already said he would be happy to help if wanted. But I just do not see it right now. How that should be possible. -However it is a month away from now. So not putting too much headacke into it today.
There are simply too much else going on in the daily thing called life.
I am in the middle of a "new demanded life" trying to find whats is to be my normal and be fine with it. It is a test that I say is massive and highly emotional and stressful.
But it is a life that is not to be ignored or say no to. It is not my choice. I have not a say it this - So right now a recidency ... can be and have what ever it wants. There is no room for it here right now.
10 February,
So ...mid February and kind of back to square one in form of shitty situations. Just started work. Now just ended the same. Extremely weird story and never mind that here.
It really only kind of fucks up hopes and wished for planning about the spring. The year of the Theatre Of Pain anniversary and what comes on that album. It is my all time favorite era. Not my favorite album, but I had hoped for a chance, finally a chance to cover at least that with a new job. I am not saying I will not get another and soon maybe even but this was just the very good and cool one to really be in selfcontrol and work solo all day every day. God damn it.
New black and white versions of last years small action figures from Shout At The Devil is out now as well. April 12 - coomes record store day release of the "Smokin In The Boys Room" picture disc. The first step towards the Theatre album cellebration of the year. A boxset comes later. Really hope it will be and get better than the Dr. one but I highly doubt it. Such a sad shitty result as a deluxe boxset if you ask me. Well I gladly just wait and see what comes and how it is. Next year Too Fast For Love and then I guess a box in 2027 for the Girls Girls Girls one. And since they ONLY focus on these five first releases - I wonder if thats it.
A wild guess is since Nikki so wish for reaching the 50th anniversary 2031 with this band, I predict some other put together shit for the 20th time between 2028 and 2031.
Sixx is then 72 and I guess they are for sure ending their entering the stage days. Some of us, a good few actually have already ended ours with the band, but still we collect and cellebrates the old times.
A renewal of the rights and the year of Mcrueloyalty.dk is in place. There can now be done things for yet another year on here.
I am still in process of many detailed somethings and I still have sections not even touched yet. So there are still stuff to get added on here and the flow of expanding slowly but surely. Have other ideas for the site as well but let me just see how it all unfolds. I am not with energy nor focus or time on my hands to do new sections and stuff on here right now.
January 21,
Tuesday and a panic attack later. I have had an absolutely terrifying last 24 hours. The fear of not fighting myself back to the old happy me after all in the year to come. I NEED IT TO STAY ALIVE. There is not much question in my body any more to that subject. I just had a day that tried to tell me – why keep fighting? Youll loose this battle too. All this round you your collecting thing the love and passion for it will be washed away fom the failed efforts in the different things you try to win over and exchange for better in this god forsaken year 2025.
It is so a sign to me that I hav gone through too much hard shit in too long a time. Too tough stuff for being how I AM not maybe for many others but this is clearly what I can handle. Not to be adding any more now. It has to stop here. I need better more smooth and enjoyable times.
I really need to get through this – it feels like February March April are crucial.It is now or not really at all. It is so hard to see and win over in just ”beliving” it will get better.
The Mcrueloyalty site has gotten a few more things done. Soon all laminates and passes sections are updated as well. I am so thrilled that all this now is ..lets say available and uploaded far more control now I know and can actually see on here what I have. No more guessing games.
My brother just found a mint condition theatre era rolled poster I will get later on. Man that is not the best period music wise. But it is most certainly my personal favorite era of the band, as it was so unique and so extremely cool a tour. That tour and arena set up with ONLY songs from three first albums by a still young band … wauu!!! Killer evenings.
I have a handful of days left to get the last bits downstairs in place and I will do all I can to make it get completed. But hopefully we will manage the last laying items for the sections online as well before Sunday. We will see.
Later – hopefully less stressed.
January 16,
Wie geths? Alles gut, oder? Well somehow yeah things are I guess ganz gut. Quite alright. I am still in dialogue with one individual that looks at people with a completely different mindset and not one of these ”ohh but you have to do this and this it says so on page 32 in the rulebook of …
Fuck that – I have had enough of all that I tell you how to look when to look and what to see say and how to react. Fuck that crap. The so called ”jantelagen” here it is thick as a century. ENOUGH. It is time to take old Tommy back. I have located him – he just needs to be dug out completely and dusted off.
I can not wait to get back to what I used to be and just stand my ground, this time with a twist. The world has changed and it is a sick, sick, sick place to be. A few 100 people in each country tells you whats doable being the goverment. And narrowing it down to be even closer to the – you – there is a boss or two that tells you sometimes how to do what to do how much and is more than willing to require YOU the individual to change to fit in at their little place on earth called a company. I am just so god damn sick and tired of it all.
I am going to work again after a long period of being unemplyed. This time I will watch my steps and try to make certain people see and hear me differently. Constantly active constantly coming with ideas. And try to make the local society see a type of activist or idea filled persona…
I am with a bit of a cold and so is my girlfrined so it is a bit tough to spread focus on the site right these days. But it will be fixed and it will be great shortly. The friend in america Jeff is sending a box late next week to me. Not too bad. Even my Japanese friend has maieled me again and said I have a few things gathered and I will late this month rap it all up and mail that out as well. So stuff is for sure coming in. I am still very interested in the bands story and to watch from a distance to see what todas version does to the band and see how the individuals are tackling this legendary name in rock is quite interesting. It is not the same band anymore so very far from it. But I am still looking in and taking notes… so to speak.
It may not be fully politically correct how my view on people and poor comfort (as I see it as) is these days. It really feels like the religion and positive light and truth, give and receive and what not is so far gone these days in the modern day society.
Show yourself! Don't hide, Show yourself! We lose the light, Show yourself! No angel in distress.
No god shows himself, the sky turns red!! Sorry but no there is no such thing and there surely dont seem to be even room for that these days.
Both the band Motley Crue and … the largest most powerful countries are ruled by ego minded selfish economic greedy dangerous men and could surely not give a flying fuck about the you or the me for even a second. No it is time to find the small holes in the darkness and crawl out of there and regain the me for myself thing and feeling. I am giving myself a task now to test what I would love to win over and get to see happening for both myself and all ”trapped” people in the area of where I live. Then ofcause it is up to them to grab the chance, the invite when it comes.
January 13,
Friday the … no wait Monday the 13th. Ha, hell who would have thought. THAT date and yet at the other end of the list of weekdays – Monday but yet the 13th would give me the first chance to rip apart one of my ”hell” pages. Unemployment – is history – for a while anyways. I got a job woth the trying out – testing period – of two months. January 27th Monday in two weeks tim, I am officially one of the staff members at Folkan Theater in town. It will take me a good 4 to 6 months to get back on track BUT!!! It is a way – to get there. Back on track. Bless … the children of the beast … lol.
Now the site is also up for a new renewal yearly payment to continue and all stuff just gets more and more expensive to do and to have. But i will cover it. No matter the shitty costs. And Mcrueloyalty continues. Latest updates have been done. Shirts, tickets, vinyls and some solo stuff updated. Feels quite good to say so, and know its an actual fact.
Damn it man, there are so many things to do on this site and so much wished for in the new year to try to get into the light of actual succesfull and active happenings.
Tomorrow – we continue to do these updates and get to have some things sorted and dealt with. Shall all be great.
Lisa (my girl) is sick again …so that could possibly be soemthign to work with if can cope. I for one am almost fully done with the re organized downstairs which is holding the collection. Can still be a bit over the top to get in perfected state as a ”Rock joint” ha, ha, ha but, it is so close that I am only happy about the done hard work and now its clear. Clear that the next one and a half week is all in the name of the ”get the rest done before work ones again calls upon me”
Amen!!!
