MÖTLEY
CRÜE - Carnival Of Sins Live
During their late '80s glammy-metal heyday Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee, Mick Mars and
Vince Neil, collectively known as Mötley
Crüe, lived
up to their rowdy reputation, often bringing them close to death. At that time
these kind of hair bands were a dime a bakers dozen - but the difference with
these guys were the fact that they actually had some damn fine rock songs, still
cool today. This ass-kicking original line-up comeback tour takes out all of the
stops. The authentic LA glam-metal bad boys light up the stage with a hefty show
of around two-dozen songs, covering all the best tunes across their repertoire
including Too Fast For Love, Shout At The Devil, Dr. Feelgood, Girls Girls
Girls, Generation Swine and New Tattoo. Most of the album title tracks
get a spin, as well as Looks That Kill, Theater Of Pain, Too Fast For Love,
On With The Show, Too Young To Fall In Love, Red Hot, Louder Than Hell, Live Wire,
Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away), Home Sweet Home, Same Ol' Situation, and
Kickstart My Heart. Nikki Sixx gets a solo which is hardly your regular
bass solo, but more of an electronic-pyrotechnic display. Tommy Lee's drum solo
takes him from his kit up into the ceiling to an industrial and electronic kit.
Lee also comes from behind his drums later on with a video camera to have the
audience flash their breasts. Cover versions of The
Beatles' Helter
Skelter and Sex
Pistols' Anarchy
In The UK close up the show. For the carnival theme the huge stage set-up
is enhanced with a carnival tent look, sexy dancers, a midget host, chopper bikes
and loads of lights and pyro. The show opens with a stop-animated sequence of
the band having to save the world from a big comet. The second disc of extra features
include a documentary of the tour, interviews, meet & greet with the fans, as
well as two music videos for Sick Love Song and If I Die Tomorrow.
The former track features animation depicting each member's darkest hour, from
car crashes and over-doses to jail time. There's also a time-lapse clip of the
stage set-up. The audio options for the show include Digital Stereo, Digital 5.1
or DTS Surround.
