A 13 Year Old Fan’s Perspective On The Mötley Crüe Reunion

Hi, I’m Shannon, a 13 year old, die-hard Motley Crue fan and here are my thoughts on the comeback:

This band is the reason why I got into rock ‘n roll, this band has influenced my style since I was a little kid. As we all know, they are notorious for doing questionable things, and blowing up of their cessation of touring contract was nothing out of the ordinary for these 4 guys.

When I was 9 years old, Motley Crue was on their final tour. They were my favorite band and I begged and begged my parents to let me go see them at Webster Bank Arena in Bridgeport, CT. Unfortunately they did not let me attend the show. Ever since then, I’ve been really inspired by Nikki Sixx’s writing in both Motley Crue and Sixx A.M.

When rumors started coming out about a possible Motley Crue reunion tour with Def Leppard and Poison, I couldn’t have been more excited. Yes I understand they signed a contract and people paid big money for tickets for the “final” tour. To me, fans of Motley Crue should be happy that their band is touring again.

To conclude, Motley Crue has affected me so tremendously throughout my childhood and the fact that their touring again makes the true fans excited to welcome them back.
