He's toast.

Meanwhile $50 tickets haven't moved the needle at all on the Vegas residency. (I was just looking and only saw the first few characters and just assumed that's what was getting canceled)

Vince and Tico could retire on the same day.

Who is replacing Motley Crue at the Vegas shows?
Will Pearl Jam come to the rescue?…resCRUE

As fun as the drama is to witness, I don’t wish any ill will on the guy. I don’t think he’s long for this earth.

I am a Vince fan! I hope he will be OK!

I don’t care what anyone says about the Crüe, they will be always so cool to me. Just like GNR always cool.

This is where it goes from fun to sad. He is giving off the same kind of vibes I was getting from the last Motorhead shows. Like he's a trooper for trying to forge ahead but probably shouldn't.

This is due to Motley rehearsals in Vegas

As a Crue fan from the Leathur Records days, I look at Vince in a similar way as I do Elvis. King of the fucking world, and then stopped caring about his health and blammo. Although Elvis only lasted a few years in that state. I used to view The End show in the same way as that awful Elvis 1977 CBS concert. As a fan I'd prefer those shows be tossed into a volcano so they aren't the way Crue and Elvis are remembered by the masses.

Heck, the Carnival of Sins tour he was a shell of his former self. Now we can look at that tour (and The End) and he seems downright vibrant and sings his ass off compared to the last few years. (not even talking about the mess that's happening now)

Bummer, but no one can say he didn't have decades to get his shit together. At a certain point your ability to bounce back goes away. Maybe he has always thought of himself like Micky Mantle did: "If I'd known I was going to live this long, I'd have taken better care of myself."

Awful? Re-watch his powerful rendition of "Unchained Melody" again!

I like the clip stern used to play, where Elvis was hopped up and couldnt stop laughing through a tune.

And I mean that not from a performance perspective (although he does cross into a bit of a bellow-er) but from a physical perspective. This is how he should be remembered:

A Myspace link? I havent seen one of those in a long long time. I am going to pass on clicking on it.

Really seems like something that would have been on the calendar far in advance.

Also, Motley clearly doesnt rehearse.

Damn.

Someone on Instagram who claims to be in the inner circle said this was not Vince’s first stroke.

Is Vince just a boozer or is he into other drugs too?

I’d be shocked if motley ever rehearsed for 3 days nevermind 3 weeks…

Vince needs to park it at this point. He’s going to end up pulling a Michael Jackson during tour rehearsals.

They don't do their own sound checks much but they do usually do tour rehearsals for about week or so. That show was on calendar last December prior to residency getting pushed back from spring to fall.. plus sales for that show were pretty weak with ticket prices at $95 -$125

I hope it is this but it seems odd that they said “due to unforeseen circumstances “.

I definitely noticed what others have noticed. Vince is not all “there” since the Stadium Tour. He looks miserable and bored.

Gossip on the street, and this is a gossip board, is Vince had a major stroke last winter, and it wasn't his first one. That's why he moves and looks the way he does. That's just what I heard though so who knows but from watching him move and his reactions, it certainly makes the most sense.
