(tickets go onsale november 22nd)

It’s really no secret that I love Motley Crue. Sure, they have plenty of misses, but the combination of that Motley folklore, their catalog of dirty L.A./Sunset Strip hits, and my obsessive love of The Dirt made this much-needed rock news for me.

So on this delightfully sunshine-y November morning, I thought I would insert some of my favorite Motley Crue videos after the jump:

Hey – I didn’t say the videos were GOOD. But they are fun.

Performing Shout at the Devil at the infamous US Festival back in 1983

Honestly, the sound is decent, and the vocals leave something to be desired (ok, they kind of suck), but what this video provides is an awesome look back until the rock and roll time machine is fully functional. Personally, after reading The Dirt, I found myself completely in love with Nikki Sixx, endeared to Tommy Lee, fascinated beyond my expectations when it came to Mick Mars, and irritated by Vince Neil.

Home Sweet Home, minus the horribly cheesy, yet fabulous intro:

This song has the fabulous ability to magically make me feel better, most of the time.

I can’t help but love this interview:

Same Ol’ Situation:

(call me crazy, but this is one of my favorite MC songs. next to Too Fast For Love, of course)

And here’s the part where I have to give you links. These guys are pretty serious about halting the embedding
