The same reason Journey is touring with Foreigner and Leppard with Heart. Because management said so!

Poison opened for Def Leppard last tour. I think Leppard fans got the better deall this time around.

I like a few Poison songs but, yeah, this is a strange pairing. Poison was the band the girls and gay guys listened to.

I don't care about the pairing ...love'em both live!!
I'm going to have to start mowing lawns or something!!

this would've been a dream bill back in 1990.they would've been in stadiums.

Open Up And Say Ahh!!! ,this used to be the album to break out at any party back in the day.slap on a Poison record and the whole room was banging in no time.

now if you want to talk about one of THE best debut albums ever this is it.....

I actually don't care much for that album. There are two or three good songs, in my opinion. "Shout at the Devil", "Theatre of Pain", "Girls, Girls, Girls", and "Dr. Feelgood" are all much better.

I really like "Hell on High Hells" and was disappointed that the rest of that "New Tattoo" album was pretty awful. Same with "Saints of Los Angeles". I heard a lot of good reviews from folks here but I think it's some of the worst crap they've ever done.

Would one of those reviewers partial screen name be included in the title of said "crap" album?

Probably trying to ride the wave of getting all the ladies to get their men to take them to see Poison since Brett Michaels has been everywhere for the last couple years. The chicks go to see Poison and the guys say they'll go as long as they get to stick around and see Motley.

The only one I remember was Red13JoePa. I don't remember who else it was.

Motley Crue is teaming with fellow Los Angeles rockers Poison and early influences the New York Dolls for a summer tour to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the band's first album. But it's not being considered a third version of the Crue Fest series.

"It's definitely not Crue Fest," drummer Tommy Lee tells Billboard.com. "Crue Fest is, like, five [bands], and this is just the three of us. But it's special because it's another Crue tour and it's summertime, man. That's always special."

Lee says the band is "just starting" to talk about it stage production for the jaunt, which begins June 7 in Dallas and so far has 38 dates booked through Aug. 5 in Toma, Wisc. Repertoire decisions, including how to treat the anniversary of 1981's platinum "Too Fast For Love," will be made in April when Lee, Nikki Sixx, Mick Mars and Vince Neil -- recently released from jail in Nevada after serving 10 days of a 15-day sentence for drunk driving -- convene for rehearsals.

Meanwhile, Lee is excited about both of the groups that will be accompanying the Crue this summer. "I'm really excited about the Dolls," he notes. "They were in that handful of early inspirations when we were all 17 and 18 years old, looking at their style and their music. So it's cool to go on tour with them."

As for Poison, a onetime rival on the Sunset Strip scene during the 80s, Lee says, "I never really got into all that...rivalry or feud. Just go up and bang out your tunes, dude. Who cares about anything else? I really don't."

As for new Crue music, Lee says the group planned to have something out this year but was waylayed by various side projects, including his Methods of Mayhem and Sixx's new Sixx: AM album and book. But Lee, who plans to spends part of March DJ'ing and playing drums for Deadmau5 at the Winter Music Conference in Miami, hopes that being on the road will instigate some creativity within the band.

"When the four of us are together, which we will be in the summer, that's usually when it goes down," he says. "We record sound checks with new ideas. I always have a studio on my bus. So I would imagine we'll start compiling ideas this summer. It's almost like you've got to get away from home to start writing music."

So 2 of Pam's exes will be on the same tour, awesome

I see they are not coming to Seattle....THANK GOD!

The 2 sex tapes.

Love the Crue, saw their Carnival of Sins tour here. One of my absolute favorites of theirs........ Kickstart My Heart http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTBU5l7CNwA

Another tour that isn't making it across the border this year. I guess with our dollar being on par and/or a little above the US, it's just not as cost effective.

Pretty cool! They can compare STD tests!
