The Crüe- Knock 'Em Dead Kid 12/3/22 at Hurricane Alley, Bossier City, Louisiana

[@overcash1202]

Dude sings all the words!! Vince hasn’t done that in years!! Awesome!!

[@friedrudibega6384]

Ever. He’s never sang all the words.

[@BVR-fc9sn]

"Kee stah ma ha!"

[@imparadox2244]

Give him a couple years and he’ll be right there with Vince😂😂

[@WesleyGravolet]

Vince never did..saw motley open for ozzy on the s.a.t.d tour and it was sloppy..but it was rock n roll and everything it should be!

[@ceevishus4130]

some of these tribute bands are more entertaining to watch live than the originals

[@thecruetributehouston]

Keyword- "Some" but thanks. Unfortunately there are a lot of cringey ones out there too

[@philipberry1349]

True story

[@freedomisntfree2089]

That's because they are usually a lot younger, have more energy and have a lot less money so they try harder

[@BFoltyn7]

It's easier to copy than to create...just saying. 🎼🎶

[@thecruetributehouston]

@@BFoltyn7 Absolutely agree. After decades of playing in original bands and writing music, we just don't have the time for that any more. We still want to play and enjoy music though. This band allows us to do that and maintain our family commitments that original bands just don't allow dude to the time requirements.

[@lehighstar474]

Oh shit,,ONCE UPON A TIME....LOVE THE 80S

[@lisamitchell1355]

I’m living my youth all over again

[@lehighstar474]

These young kids now will never know just how much fun it was to go see an actual concert with real musicians and a real rock show the bands of the 80s put on

[@thecruetributehouston]

Right, That's one of the reason tribute bands like us exist. To share this music with people who didn't get to experience or to bring back memories for those who did.

[@lehighstar474]

@thecruetributehouston you guys sound great...a great tribute band...I'm a drummer of over 25yrs...and the guy playing drums is amazing......great band guys....

I am a Motley Crue chic from the beginning, you guys are a great Tribute band , I would think the boys would be proud

[@thecruetributehouston]

Thank you! One of us met Tommy recently and got to talk with him about our band. He appreciated it very much and was very complimentary.

[@thehighdeath5562]

Came here after watching videos of the “real” Crue live . John 5 and Tommy Lee are great, but Vince seems to put almost no effort into anything. I like this band’s real backing vocals and each member rocks balls.

[@thecruetributehouston]

@@thehighdeath5562 Fuck yeah thanks dude! We're all about putting on a kickass show and bringing back classic Crüe

[@gemini1567]

Exhilarating to hear such talent!!!

[@roberttaylor1275]

I've been in some crue tribute bands...sorry all crue tributes...these are the best.

[@thecruetributehouston]

Thx man! Appreciate the respect!

[@golgothaassassin5035]

Great job to The Crue, covered this song back in the day myself. I hate that everyone gives Vince such a hard time they forget that the guy is in his 60's and has lived a hard life, and I find it amazing that he is still alive with all the booze and drugs he did, and able to perform at all. Mick Mars is one of the most underrated guitar players in history, he pretty much influenced a generation, and wrote some of the most recognized guitar riffs of all time from the 80's. Nikki didn't start out as a great bass player but kept pushing himself, but he was a great song writer. Vince at 20 years old was one of the best voices in metal, and their stage show changed the game. Let's give credit where it's due. I bet very few could party like they did and live to tell it. Mick was in constant pain for years and definitely not playing at his full potential yet still was able to out preform most for decades. The fact that people still recognize their music after 40 years is a testament to the impact they made....

[@thecruetributehouston]

Agree 100% with everything you said. Could have said it better ourselves. We get thousands (no joke...thousands) of comments about how our singer should replace Vince, which while that's flattering and very complimentary of our singer, it's a little annoying and nonsensical. Our band is 100% about love and respect for Mötley Crüe and sharing our passion for their music for our fans. We would never seek to discredit them, replace any one of them, be better than them, or anything like that. We are a strong team of musicIan's regardless of who's music we are playing and the performances y'all see in the videos are a result of the hard work we've put in over the past 3 years. At the end of the day we do it because we LOVE playing live music, and we LOVE Mötley Fuckin' Crüe! 🤘😝🤘

[@jamescon55]

Definitely, the BEST era of the CRUE (and ONLY era for myself 😏) Pretty darned good rendition of a once, VERY ICONIC band from Calli. Dude's GOT Mick's tone and SOLO dialed in NOW! 🤘🔥🤘

[@thecruetributehouston]

Thx brother. Shout is definitely our most developed of the three eras we offer. We do Theatre of Pain era and Girls, Girls, Girls era (brand new) as well. It's nice to have variety to keep our fans engaged.

[@brownwrench]

No easy trick to get Mick's tone.

[@thecruetributehouston]

@@brownwrench Thanks man. It's pure Marshall tube tone. I dialed it in when we started the band in 2019 and haven't touched it since...

[@GunsMcgowan425]

Good shit!

[@JawTooth]

Wow, these guys are awesome! Send them to us in Ohio 🎉

[@DavidRodriguez-mp9nh]

[@tiediegymnasts920]

Vince Neil has a unique voice it's hard to imitate real people but this guy's good

[@rondellschuyler7074]

Definetly not hard to beat Vince Neil. This guy is much better though.

[@CryptoZoo_]

Sounds like Vince

[@rondellschuyler7074]

@Eddie Viv I totally agree. 👍

[@thecruetributehouston]

@Eddie VivHi. I'm the guitarist and I manage the band and all of our social accounts so ask away....No need to answer your question though, go watch a video of Mick Mars from 1983.....We're not doing Mötley now, clearly we're wearing the outfits and playing on the stage set from 1983....just saying...

[@thecruetributehouston]

@Eddie Viv That's good. Sorry man, I deal with a ton of people every day who talk shit and aren't joking so I'm pretty quick to talk shit back. Glad you dig the band dude.

[@drummerw17]

Excellent Tribute guys. Congratulations 🤘😈🤘👍👍👍

[@j4r193]

The look is impressive... the sound is jaw dropping, hands down immaculate! The feel and presence you guys have takes many of us on the tube and hopefully in that crowd(lucky them), back to a time on how it was set back in the day. Thank You for incorporating MC's music in today's times. Another Houston's Tribute that is awesome is the Ozz. You all need to get together and tour us Northern States. We would be quite thrilled and welcomed to have ya!

[@thecruetributehouston]

Ozz is awesome! We play with them all the time. They're our brothers!

[@dongrant7631]

You guys did an awesome job! Been a Crue fan since the beginning and thankful people still care enough to do them justice covering their songs.

[@thecruetributehouston]

Fuck yeah brother. Crüe heads for life over here. It's an honor to do this and tons of fun. People want to feel nostalgic over the music that was a part of their younger years. That's why we do so well. I was too young to experience any of their 80's tours live. For me it's awesome to recreate it for others and experience it for myself (different point of view than the audience though!) 🤘🤣🤘

[@alfiebarter6921]

Great band .. Love the Crue . Im glad we have these good tribute bands because let's face it we are losing our fav bands of the 80s . Glad to still have them in bands like these .. Rock On

They sound really good and they got the look down right as well. The vocalist sounds like he could match Vince's voice but holds it back for the higher parts. Which in turns gives him the ability to keep his own voice relaxed. Very smart on his part. I see this band excelling past the tribute mark and going in to some originality. Good job here. Keep rocking!!
