dude...that's exactly how they were when they came through KC a few years back.
Godsmack opened for them, and crusssssshhhhed it. Then, Crue came out and Vince sounded exactly like that. half finishing lines, out of key, out of breath. ... awful. which sucked, because I was looking forward to it. |

I saw Dokken open for Tom Keifer last year, and they were actually worse than this. Don basically has no voice left, and can't sing at all. And high notes? Forget it. The main thing that made him worse than Vince seemed to be trying; Don basically kept frantically and angrily motioning to his bass player to get him to hit the high notes for him, which the bass player couldn't do either. It was awful. Through in the fact that the show was in an old, restored 20s-era theater with no air conditioning, on a night where it was 90 degrees outside. The crowd started to sweat and stink almost immediately. Most miserable experience I've ever had at a concert. After they butchered Dream Warriors, the wife and I spent the rest of their set outside. Later the bass player came out and was basically telling everybody what a dick Don was.
Keifer was great, but between the heat and the whole Dokken debacle, the evening was ruined. Ugh. |

Paul Stanley should have stopped after the Reunion Tour, Keifer never sounded good live and neither did Don Dokken - see Dokken Beast from the East. Vince Neil circa 92 or the Carnival of Sins tour was his last hora!

I watched it last night and enjoyed it for the most part. The last 30 minutes or so got kinda cheesy, the acting fell off and it started to drag imo. Overall it was a fun movie with of course, an awesome sound track.

It's a cheese movie. There are some folks who are upset that it tries to make some bad characters seem sympathetic, but I disagree. It's just q popcorn flick about some 80s clowns doing 80s clown shit. I wish there was more to it, because it is a fun ride, but you're right... it fizzled. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk |

We watched this last night. I thought it was pretty good. I wish they had more about the early days in the clubs. Lots of great bands came up with the Crue. Vince comes off as a real dick, pretty much a perfect description. I saw the Crue a couple of times, Dr. Feelgood, Girls, Girls Girls and then later when Vince and Tommy were out of the band. Their concerts were always brief- 1 1/2 hours and they were gone. Vince sounded terrible, but the stage show and Tommy spinning around were always cool.
We spent a summer rocking out on their demo that turned into Too Fast For Love. Still their best work. SATD was pretty badass too, but they began to go downhill after that. I skipped the farewell tour- I don't like paying for a bands retirement. I might see them when they get back together. |
