Vince Neil took a spill as he lost his balance on stage during MÖTLEY CRÜE‘s show in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
The incident occurred during the third song of MÖTLEY CRÜE‘s set Friday night (May 3) at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. As Neil‘s bandmates launched into the opening chords of the CRÜE classic “Wild Side” — which originally appeared on the 1987 album “Girls, Girls, Girls” — Vince began hopping over to the right side of the stage before apparently losing his footing and falling to the floor.
Two separate fan-filmed videos of Neil‘s tumble can be seen below.
This is not the first time Neil has fallen on stage. Back in October 2021, he reportedly broke his ribs after walking to the front of the stage while performing with his solo band at the Monsters On The Mountain festival at LeConte Center in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. With his guitar strapped around him, Neil was encouraging the crowd to clap along while playing the 1989 MÖTLEY CRÜE hit “Don’t Go Away Mad (Just Go Away)” when he suddenly fell and dropped out of the camera’s view almost instantly. TMZ later reported that there was a small gap between the speaker and the stage that Neil didn’t notice. His roadie and a security guy helped him get to his feet, and Vince “limped away.”
