MÖTLEY CRÜE - Drumeo Shares Showcase Video: The Genius Of TOMMY LEE

The Drumeo YouTube channel has shared a new showcase video, this time focusing on Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee. They run through Lee's signature grooves, cymbal techniques, theatrics and drum solos, and more.

Drumeo: "Mötley Crüe wouldn’t be the same without Tommy Lee, the rockstar poster child. His personality and energy are off the charts and he’s influenced countless drummers for decades. From epic hard-hitting drum solos to incorporating pyrotechnics and spinning drum risers into his shows, let’s break down why he’s such a legendary monster."

Mötley Crüe recently uploaded drum-cam video of Tommy Lee performing the Sex Pistols classic "Anarchy In The U.K." with his bandmates during their August 27, 2022 concert at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles from The Stadium Tour.

A caption of the video says: “There'll be Anarchy when DEF CRÜE hit the road for leg 2 of THE WORLD TOUR! Europe, US, JAPAN and more…where will we see you?”

In April, Mötley Crüe revealed that they had entered the recording studio with their longtime producer, Bob Rock, to lay down some new music.

Recently, Crüe bassist Nikki Sixx took to social media with the following update: "Vince is cutting lead vocals this week on the new songs… We have a few final things Bob Rock wants us to record and then heading to London next week to prepare for European tour. We’re really excited to play for our European fans. It’s been a minute. Great combination of stadiums and festivals."

Prior to that, Sixx stated, "I have to say when I was a teenager I had no idea being in a band could garner so much love and so much hate. What a great original journey I’ve got to travel over the years watching people have so many feelings about our band. THANK YOU. Pretty much wrapped up most of the songs so it’s all vocals from here on out. These songs are personal. You’ll understand more later. Being in a band for 42 years you have to constantly look for inspiration —- and I can’t believe we’re leaving soon for Europe. We’re gonna be there for two months. I’m bringing my family and gonna really make a point to get out and also make time for some photography. Leica Camera sent me the new M11 and the SL2 to test out. Can’t wait and can’t wait to play all these shows. I’m just living in gratitude everyday. And thank you to the lovers and the haters. You keep me inspired.Oh and as you can see we actually never took a break. Just came home from tour and back to work. I guess I’ll rest next time I die?"

Mötley Crüe's 2023 tour of The UK and Europe began May 22nd in Sheffield, England, and wraps up July 6th in Glasgow, Scotland. The complete itinerary can be found here.
