‘I Will Invite The World To Come For Free’, said MÖTLEY CRÜE guitarist in 2014 on reunion

A newly unearthed video clip of Mick Mars‘s 2014 appearance on “That Metal Show” finds the MÖTLEY CRÜE guitarist discussing the possibility of band reuniting for more tours after the completion of its 2015 “final” trek. In the clip (see below), which was posted to Twitter by “That Metal Show” co-host Don Jamieson, Mars can be heard saying: “Let me put it this way: If that happens, I will invite the world to come for free.”

“That Metal Show” co-host Eddie Trunk shared Jamieson’s tweet and weighed in: “Wow! This is amazing ! What a fun episode this was with @mrmickmars @MotleyCrue … but I totally forgot he said this.. until a caller reminded me today. well here’s one tour that won’t be expensive I guess #FreeTicketsToTheWorld thx to @ThatMetalShow !

CRÜE fans who shelled out for the band’s 2014/2015 “farewell” tour were led to believe that the group would never return after playing its final show on December 2015 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The band touted the signing of a pre-tour “cessation of touring” agreement as cementing the fact it truly was the end of CRÜE’s life on the road.

On Monday (November 18) — three years and 11 months after the band played its last show — CRÜE posted a video with Machine Gun Kelly, who portrayed Tommy Lee in the band’s biopic “The Dirt”, explaining that due to the band “becoming more popular than ever” and “gaining an entirely new legion of fans” in the four years they’ve been off the road, the band felt the need to blow up their previous contract in order to come out of retirement. That same day, Rolling Stone reported that MÖTLEY CRÜE will embark on a stadium tour with DEF LEPPARD and POISON in 2020. However, as of right now, no official announcement regarding the trek has been made.

After the members of MÖTLEY CRÜE reunited last year to record four new songs for “The Dirt” film, some fans assumed that the group would be open to the idea of playing together again at a special event to promote the movie. But Sixx shot down the idea earlier this year, telling Rolling Stone: “Sometimes I look out at my friends, like the guys in AEROSMITH and METALLICA, and I’m, like, ‘God damn it, did we retire too soon?’ But there will be no one-offs in our future. Maybe we’ll just get together and jam in guitarist Mick Mars’s front room.”
