MÖTLEY CRÜE
Announce #demandthecrue Campaign
For Last Ever European Tour
WEDNESDAY 27TH MAY 2015,
LONDON – Iconic rock legends Mötley Crüe, have
launched a social media campaign today that will allow
fans to request which cities they should visit in
Europe as part of their global ‘Final Tour’.
No official announcement has been made
about a European leg, but the band are offering fans
the opportunity to request shows in their cities by casting a
vote for their city at http://demand.motley.com/ and
by using the hashtag #demandthecrue across Facebook,
Twitter, and Instagram. Votes can be cast daily and
fans can track the progress of the conversation
through an interactive heatmap on the site.
After thirty-four years performing
together, the 2015 leg of the Final Tour includes
shows all across the globe. Mötley Crüe have just
finished a tour of Australia and New Zealand in May
for their last ever shows there after concluding their
last Japan run this past February. The band will be
saying farewell to the European festival circuit in
the coming weeks playing their last ever European
Festival performances at Sweden Rocks (Sweden),
Download (UK) and Novarock (Austria) before taking
their can’t-miss show back to the U.S., Canada, and
Mexico.
Mötley Crüe first announced plans for
their two year Final Tour by signing a Cessation
Of Touring Agreement at a press conference in
Los Angeles in January 2014, solidifying the end of
their touring career for December 2015 with the last
show ever at Staples Center in their hometown of Los
Angeles. Since the announcement the band has been
touring tirelessly to say goodbye to fans around the
world.
The 2014 leg of the Final Tour was one of
last year’s top grossing tours, selling close to a
million tickets across 72 cities and grossing more
than $45 million. “Mötley Crüe’s Final Tour has been a
massive global success and a true testament to the
popularity of this legendary rock band,” says Rick
Franks, Live Nation’s Regional President of North
American Concerts. “New Year’s Eve 2015 will mark the
end of an era in rock history but there’s no doubt
that Mötley Crüe’s music will influence generations of
artists for years to come.”
