Video footage has emerged of Vince Neil lip-syncing to a track at an MÖTLEY CRÜE concert.
In a video that can be seen below (courtesy of TikTok user larrycherry55), Neil can be seen moving away from the microphone while the backing track still continues.
It is unclear at which show was this record, however, CRÜE played two shows in Atlantic City, New Jersey earlier this month, where this footage most likely come from.
Earlier, Motley Crue fans have called out Vince Neil for delivering an uninspiring performance at Coachella.
Vince Neil performed Motley Crue’s classic songs during a concert at the Spotlight Showroom at the Spotlight 29 Casino in Coachella, California on the 28th of January.
Here’s the response from Motley Crue fans:
“I was sorely disappointed in his performance tbh.”
“Almost every picture I see of him on stage he appears to be uninspired and bored. I saw the stadium tour twice this summer and the Crüe is legendary in my eyes. But regardless of how anyone believes Vince sounds I think that sadly, his passion for performing is a thing of the past.”
“I think he gets better the more he tours.”
“The so called fans that bash him daily are not happy with there own lives so it’s all irrelevant”
“Must have been has drunk has he was. Not that good.”
“He was terrible and vulgar at the Milwaukee show!!! They need to move on.”
“He was embarrassing in Vegas hope he can pull it together.”
Bassist Nikki Sixx tweeted about Motley Crue’s first rehearsals together with John 5.
See below what Sixx shared:
“Well that was f*cking epic. @john5guitarist walks into rehearsal and we just rip the set from top to bottom seamlessly. That took 90 minute’s and then the next few hours we just laughed and told dumb rockstar war stories. @MotleyCrue DAY 1”.
Mötley Crüe and Def Leppard will be an “intimate show” at the Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, Florida on Sunday, March 12th.
Pre-sales start today (January 10th) at 10 a.m., with general tickets going on sale this Friday (January 13th) at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster.
Mötley Crüe’s exciting 2023 tour is approaching.
After it was announced that Mick Mars would not be with them, fans started asking who would take his place, and they soon got their answer: John 5. Judging by his recent tweet, Nikki Sixx seems especially excited to be working with John 5 on this tour. Crüeheads, buckle up because Nikki Sixx’s excitement is a splendid omen for the upcoming shows!
Nikki said:
“Talking to John 5 about how excited I am to finally get into rehearsals and then get to these first shows in Atlantic City,” exclaimed Nikki about hitting the road again, this time with a new guitarist with whom he has been friends for years. “Then off to Latin America and the rest of the world.”
Earlier MÖTLEY CRÜE and DEF LEPPARD announced two U.S. shows for February 2023.

Presales for the Atlantic City dates begin on Tuesday (November 29), with tickets going on sale to the general public on Friday, December 2.

I feel sorry that Vince lost his iconic voice. He was great in the day and moving all over with the energy and passion of a rock star. He looks tired and wiped out on stage. His passion is gone and it is hard to physically to keep up with the pace of live shows on tour even though he needs the tracks to sound like Motley Crue. It is time to give it up for the the band. Nikkijust wants to look like the lead singer. His skills are mediocre at best. Without a live show many are not interested any more. It is sad but you have to know how to bow out gracefully. Do they really need the money that bad…
He didn’t lose it, it was swallowed whole by his weight gain and age.
His “iconic” voice was never “great.” He was always whiny, nasally and screechy. One listen to the album MC did with John Corabi and you’ll hear the difference.
Vince got by on his looks when he was younger. Now those looks are gone and he’s laughable.
