Mötley Crüe will perform on the American Idol season finale on May 11.
They will join Shinedown, Jazon Mraz, Nelly, Clay Aiken, and more performing as special guest performers on the three-hour season final airing Monday, May 11 on Disney+ or Hulu.
From July 17 to September 26, Mötley Crüe will be wreaking havoc across North America as they headline The Return Of The Carnival Of Sins Tour. This summer spectacular celebrates two milestones: the 20th anniversary of the groundbreaking 2005-2006 Carnival Of Sins tour and the 45th anniversary of the band.
The run will bring Mötley Crüe’s high-impact live show – renowned for its explosive production, unforgettable visuals, and decades-spanning catalog – to fans across the US and Canada next summer. Produced by Live Nation, the tour will stop in 33 cities across North America and feature performances by very special guests Tesla and Extreme.
When the Carnival Of Sins Tour first hit the road in 2005, it wasn’t just a concert – it was a full-scale production that pushed the limits of live shows. It combined grit, humor, and high-voltage energy with elaborate staging and a sense of chaos that only Mötley Crüe could pull off. Two decades later, fans will have the chance to experience The Return Of The Carnival Of Sins as Mötley Crüe revisits one of the most memorable live tours of their storied career with a reimagined show and updated setlist.
“Bringing back the spirit of Carnival Of Sins has been a blast, and we wanted to take it even further for its 20th anniversary. This new show is for the Crüeheads who’ve been with us through it all and for the new Crüeheads who didn’t get to experience Carnival Of Sins last time around. Get ready – we’re coming your way and we can’t wait to see you next summer,” Mötley Crüe said in a joint statement.

With federal grants to music programs in schools being cut, millions of children across the U.S. risk losing access to creative, life-changing education and experiences in the arts.

BraveWords Records releases PRIOR CONVICTIONS the new album by Alcatrazz.
Our friends at Roppongi Rock… “Prior Convictions” bridges Alcatrazz’s past and future. Of the eleven tracks on the album, two are brand new songs. “Transylvanian Requiem” is an instrumental piece showing off Joe Stump’s guitar wizardry, while “Stand and Wait Your Turn” is an excellent rocker of a song.
These two new songs raise my expectations for the next studio album of new material.
