Motley Crue replacement drummer
| Message Board > Controversy and Quarantine > Motley Crue replacement drummer |
| thestefano User Info... | Ok you all knew i would have to say something about this....so Motley Crue has had a "Fill" in drummer for the last leg of thier tour because Tommy Lee has tendinitis. They got some dude named Harvey from a Motley Crue tribute band in Calgary to cover shift. Yeah i know i could say a shit load about how jealous this makes me...but to be the better (envious) man - Congrats Harvey...you asshole....errr i mean, you lucky dude you. Since this thread is about controversy, then how do people feel about this: Is it a valid claim to demand your ticket money back since you actually paid to see Motley Crue and not 3/4 of Motley Crue and some dude? Not that i am going to do that...i still love them all the same but just wondering what legalities and/or rights the show goer has when these kinda changes occur. -The Stef out. http://www.motley2.com - Thu, 6 Apr 2006 10:09am Edited: Thu, 6 Apr 2006 10:49am | ||
| Inhalien User Info... | Yeah and I heard they had a webcast last night and Tommy's leg is bugging him as well as his wrist so he prolly won't drum for Victoria. Not too pleased as I was looking forward to watching him play. If they don't cancel the show completely, then no money back for tickets. Samantha Maloney drummed for them when Tommy wasn't in the band but she is an awesome Crue drummer too.. I think Stef should drum for the Victoria show. - Thu, 6 Apr 2006 12:44pm Edited: Thu, 6 Apr 2006 12:51pm | ||
| I Love Simon User Info... | No, He called him in for the Red Deer Show, and has him playing for the show at prince George, Tommy is supost to play in victoria, but Harvey will be there just incase. - Thu, 6 Apr 2006 2:30pm Edited: Thu, 6 Apr 2006 2:32pm | ||
| H User Info... | I will gladly take any tickets from people who dont wanna see 3/4 of the crue. saw em last year in van and it was fucking awesome - Fri, 7 Apr 2006 9:19am Edited: Fri, 7 Apr 2006 9:20am | ||
| Mofo User Info... | can't say I see the problem with replacing a drummer so the show goes on. I don't demand 1/30 th of my ticket price back when the Canucks put in a back up goalie...I know,... different shit, but as long as the drummer can keep up with them and they sound the same, whats the dif? - Fri, 7 Apr 2006 10:31am Edited: Fri, 7 Apr 2006 10:34am | ||
| thestefano User Info... | I suppose it depends on your connection with certain members. For example when Dime was alive ((R.I.P.)) would it still have been a Pantera show if Dime-bag had a broken wrist and couldn't perform so instead they got some dude to fill in? To most people i know...i know drummers just hit shit with sticks, but to those who actually take time and listen, analyze and educate themselves they know that drummers are an integral piece of the sound, from timing, groove, intensity, aggresion, style and of course dynamics, but what do i know? - LOL. Motley definitly isn't the same without Tommy. - Fri, 7 Apr 2006 11:25am Edited: Fri, 7 Apr 2006 11:34am | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | They didn't ask you to drum?!? Wassup with that?!? I saw a story about it on CBC Newsworld, and naturally I was expecting you to be interviewed. :) - Sat, 8 Apr 2006 1:47am Edited: Sat, 8 Apr 2006 1:48am | ||
| Gagg User Info... | I would never go to a Motley Crue concert without tommy lee. That just isnt Motley Crue. - Sat, 8 Apr 2006 12:46pm Edited: Sat, 8 Apr 2006 12:47pm | ||
| Ward Ensemble User Info... | need a big strong man to hold your hand, do ya? - Sun, 9 Apr 2006 12:19am Edited: Sun, 9 Apr 2006 12:20am | ||
| white noise User Info... | I think it's got to be all or nothing. If my favourite band had a replacement member I would be upset. A band is a band for a reason. - Mon, 10 Apr 2006 4:16pm Edited: Mon, 10 Apr 2006 4:19pm | ||
| jackass User Info... | if that were the case, how many bands would never have gone any farther....some bands are better off with the new members. propaghandi NOFX metallica face to face no use for a name lagwagon strung out vandals green day those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head... - Mon, 10 Apr 2006 4:25pm Edited: Mon, 10 Apr 2006 4:31pm | ||
| Mr. Hell User Info... | Geez, look at Kiss! After Peter and Ace left, they sold even more albums. But that's probably because they put out way more albums. - Mon, 10 Apr 2006 9:44pm Edited: Mon, 10 Apr 2006 9:45pm | ||
| ML7Mike User Info... | Metallica are better off without Cliff Burton? I mean it not like Lars Ulrich got replaced now is it.. - Mon, 10 Apr 2006 10:35pm Edited: Mon, 10 Apr 2006 10:36pm | ||
| Anonymous User Info... |  I didn't leave my seat once and you would of not known that wasn't Tommy... Whoever that guy is played fucking incredible. Oh yeah loved the titties !!!! - Tue, 11 Apr 2006 10:13am Edited: Tue, 11 Apr 2006 10:18am | ||
| StarShip B.O.B. User Info... | When I saw Motley a few years ago when they we're on tour with the Scorpions. Randy Castillio (RIP) from Ozzy's Ultimate Sin era was on drums. He blew Tommy away so much. - Tue, 11 Apr 2006 9:09pm Edited: Tue, 11 Apr 2006 9:12pm | ||
| Andy McBeer User Info... | From where I was sitting in the stadium, I could see Tommy airdrumming behind Harvey for the whole set, so it was pretty easy to imagine him actually sitting at the drums anyway. - Wed, 12 Apr 2006 10:48pm Edited: Wed, 12 Apr 2006 10:49pm | ||

| Tink User Info... | Green Day doesn't have any new members? They have a guy, Jason Swartzwhatever, who plays with them live now. Billie doubles all his guitar tracks in the studio. I don't think Jason makes them better, I think it allows BJ to be more (too much) of a front man, and permits him to be lazier with his guitar parts. Why is this controversial? Crue is still Crue. Tommy doesn't make or break it for me, when all the other elements are there. I'd see them while Mick is still able to stand for 10 minutes at a time. - Tue, 9 May 2006 8:14pm | ||
