A few days ago, I came across a video of Motley Crue frontman Vince Neil singing live. I haven’t seen them live in over 10 years so I have no idea whether this is his current vocal performance.
It’s like a bad, drunk Bob Dylan impersonator decided to dabble in Motley Crue covers.
Check it out below and let us know your opinion in the comments below.
Legendary rockers Mötley Crüe have entertained us with some of the classic glam rock songs in the last few decades. Having sold 100 million albums worldwide has made them one of the best-selling bands of all time. Fans love the Crue boys and without any doubt, 1989’s Dr. Feelgood is Mötley Crüe’s most popular album which reached number one. Motley Crue boys have also achieved seven platinum or multi-platinum certifications, six Top 20 pop singles, twenty-two Top 40 mainstream rock hits, and nine Top 10 albums on the Billboard 200 chart. Vince Neil is one of the most loved frontmen in the history of rock music.

Laisser Vince Neil tranquille putain c’est bon quoi pffff
Unfortunately its true. I’ll be 50 this summer ( 2019 ) & Mötley Crüe was one of my two first rock bands to get into & one of my favorites! Vince still has the range but but the time Dr.Feelgood hit I noticed that his live performance was going downhill. He sounded great when the album came out, hit all the high notes & knew all the words but when he is live he sucks! He brings down the quality of the music. He skips words & runs words together. I know its harder to do live what the studio machines make you sound like but he didn’t help the situation at all. I’ve seen every tour since Dr.Feelgood & a couple tours I saw more than onc but Vince just sucks live. He has the same type of god complex as Gene Simmons. I met Nikki & Vince at a radio station before & after an interview the day before the local show. I followed the bus through the gate. Vince got off, seemed pissed that I was the only one there & walked by not saying a word. Nikki stopped, gave me his autograph, said hello & told the security guy to take our picture … I had my camera with me. Near the end of the hour I saw someone leaving & went back to the gate. One guy following. We made it in & he followed me to the bus. They came out & Vince didn’t say anything & just went right back on the bus. Nikki stopped to sign something for the guy, shook my hand & said he hoped I enjoyed the show. I saw Sebastian Bach at a club in the mid nineties. A girl working the t-shirt table was talking to me. She said she toured with Vince once as head of the shirt & cd sales. She said it was only a couple weeks in & she quit because he wouldn’t leave her alone. He would get pushy with it too. He was only interested in trying to get her in bed. Tommy got into a fist fight with Vince once at a hotel because he wouldn’t leave a female employee alone & Tommy was trying to get Vince to go to his room & sleep it off & protect the girl from Vince. He got pissed & took a swing at Tommy.
What was that?
Horrendous !!!!
This guy just doesn’t care anymore. I mean look at him. If he doesn’t lose that weight he won’t live to see 60
He’s younger than 60, lol?
Vince needs to go on a diet, that boy has more ham than a hog. That said, he’ll have to lose the weight for the upcoming Motley tour. There’s no way they will let him front the band looking like that.
There is no “upcoming” Motley tour. He sounds like that helium commercial!
This reply aged well
lol
I firmly believe a man like this should have stayed behind bars. They should have never let him out.
The stories you hear about this creature are sickening.
I’m guessing this was recorded off the soundboard without the backtracking. – Yes, this is what Vince Meal really sounds like.
Bring back John Carabi.
If you are going to continue playing, especially the front man, you gotta take care of yourself. Look at Dee Snider or Phil Collins from Defy Leppard, incredible shape! Love Crue, but Vince is a slob!
Agreed. I was so pumped & looking forward to the stadium tour but after seeing this i might just sell my tickets and cut my losses. I have a sneaking suspicion that they’ll cancel the 2020 tour if ticket sales remain abysmal. It explains why today’s presale is nowhere near sold out.
What a let down.
It’s entirely possible he’s on medication that causes weight gain. As you get older, life gets crueller. That said, he might consider retirement and take up a new hobby.
Look at the size of that food baby!!!!!
That is a condition called ‘ascites’. His liver is somewhere in the vicinity of 120 years old.
I’m speechless 😭
Time to stop , auto tune go out?
And this is why Motley Crue called it quits.
PORKY CRUE!!!
Portly Crue
So he’s a bit out of shape, give the guy a break. I’m not a major fan but the dude’s been belting it out for years. If he enjoys performing let the guy do it.
…It’s called “Crubish” a new language created by Vince Neil.
Sounds like Eric Cartman
WUHGOUT!
Time for vince to quit whatever he is doing now and start painting garden nomes
Holy hell. ..WTF did I just watch ? Wowwwwwww
Totally explains why the presale for the stadium tour has barely sold out. Lots of tickets still available. I really thought it would sell out immediately this is just the first of many presales that started this morning. Wow, I’m shocked. Might sell my tickets after seeing this video!
them. Played after a marlins game a few years back. Everyone left. He was awful.
This is FAKE News AF shame on you smh 😭😭😭 there’s just no way this is real.
Not fake, I am a huge Crue fan, I walked out of the farewell tour after their 3rd butchered song. Thank god Alice Cooper opened, he rocked.
Alice saved that tour
Agreed. Alice killed crue. I felt bad for tbem.
He’s badly out of shape and therefore out of breath, too. There’s a more than fair chance he’s using a prescription to deal with depression or anxiety which helps him stay sober but also makes one gain weight. Mind you, this is just my opinion, not something I know for fact. it’s too bad it’s so hard to deal with mental issues and stay clean when your career is in a rock band.
Yea,last two shows I saw were horrible..
Unfortunately, Vince has been the weak link in The Crue for some time. Still fun to watch but not what they used to be.
Vince is a clown!! The “Crue” have ALWAYS been WAY overrated as far as I’m concerned. They came out when Van Halen was truly mighty and they over shadowed all these “B” grade bands like: Motley Crue, Ratt,Warrant, Quiet Riot and so on.
Rock in Rio 2015 – Brazil
I wanted to cry the first time I saw something like this. But now I have come to accept it.
My youth!! Ohh GODDD!!! Im officially old!!!!!
