Crue here with us live in studio on this Saturday morning.
And uh so, uh tell us, uh tell us about
the uh the origins of not Lee Crue. Why did
you why did you all decide.
Speaker 9: To uh to do this?
Speaker 19: So let's see who wants to start.
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously you're all big Motley Crue fans.
Speaker 20: Absolutely, I decided to do it because they were already established,
they needed a singer, and I grew up on I
grew up on Crewe.
Speaker 15: I love I love Motley Crue.
Speaker 20: Yeah, it's definitely represents just the raw energy and passion
of just good old rock and roll.
Speaker 15: So yeah, yeah, I am here.
Speaker 14: Absolutely, I definitely agree with that.
Speaker 21: It's just it's an explosive kind of music to play.
It's it's tons of fun and always goes over.
Speaker 14: Well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you even kind of talk like Eric Carr, you
got to freaking tribute and it's freaking me out.
Speaker 14: Maybe you're going to join a Kiss tribute?
Speaker 3: Exactly, exactly.
Speaker 16: Yeah, basically, you know it got it got started out
of out of I won't say a joke, but we
we were in a different band. We kind of we
we decided on a Halloween to to actually dress up
as Motley Crue and do do kind of a one
set of their music. We realized we had so much
fun playing it and loved the music so much that
it kind of it evolved into this. You know, it's
kind of how it happened twenty nineteen.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yep, Oh, very cool. So that's when it's so
so you got you guys been at this a while?
Speaker 5: Yep.
Speaker 3: Has it been the same line up the entire time?
Speaker 19: No, We've had some changes. Yeah, we have had some
changes over the years.
Speaker 16: For you know, we we needed people who were completely
dedicated to it to pull it off live, because we
do do you do.
Speaker 14: You do, do you know, we do.
Speaker 16: We do a full tribute, so we're we're getting you know,
we we have the full shout, the Double era costumes
we use, so we you know, we needed people who
were dedicated to out look, who are gonna you know,
gonna shave when needed, who were gonna you know, perform
the part and and and act the part.
Speaker 3: Well, now, Vince Neil.
Speaker 20: Has had a beard at some point, right, yeah, well
we're not on tour right now. This is this is
my hangout. This is my hangout at the at the beach.
Don't have to worry about it. But obviously theatrical makeup
doesn't work on a beard, so right to go back
to the theatrical makeup. Ye, So yeah, yeah, we uh,
we were anti anti shaving for the for the promo,
but when we do the gigs, it's.
Speaker 15: It's you know, as you can see from the shirt. Yeah,
it's all. It's all showed at the Devil.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you guys brought us surets. Thank you so much. Yes,
you got it and some picks too. You got picks?
Speaker 17: Did you guys charge them?
Speaker 21: No?
Speaker 3: Of course not, what the hell you can invoice us.
We're not doing this for free.
Speaker 18: I thought the picks were led or something.
Speaker 8: I'm like, charge them.
Speaker 3: That's a good idea.
Speaker 15: Also wrong tribute Gene Simmons over here, right.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I just came up with a million dollar
there you go. Now, what what's kind of the range
in terms of the songs that that you play, Like,
do you cover like? I assume you don't do anything
from the Krabbier era, right, because certainly Vince Neil would
not do that. But well, we're not opposed to it.
Speaker 16: We've talked about it, We've done I think what the
most recent stuff is What Afraid? Maybe yeah, oh yeah,
we do that one. But we kind of we kind
of I mean, the people want the earlier stuff. Yeah,
so we because we're at that shot at the double
era costume, we definitely start out with a lot more
songs from those two the first two albums, okay, and
then we kind of we mix in the other stuff
to hit so obviously and yeah, and then we'll do
whatever people want.
Speaker 9: The goal the goal in the.
Speaker 16: Future we will, Yeah, the people will do. What we
want is to expand you know, expand into the other
era costumes as well. Yeah, so we're starting out with
this we think this is the strongest era for them,
This is what made the mark for them. So that's
where it's at, you know, so we'll start there.
Speaker 3: That makes sense. That makes sense. How many how many
songs as a band? Do you know? How many Motley
Cruz songs?
Speaker 19: Do you everyone want to take a stab good exander.
Speaker 17: I'd say like thirty, probably.
Speaker 3: Quite a bit.
Speaker 17: I mean we know all the hits. Yeah, everything that
had a video for the most part, except for You're
All I.
Speaker 16: Need Okay, we you know we I forgot about that song. Yeah,
I literally forgot about you. Yeah, it's such a huge
that song, such a huge production.
Speaker 17: As far as anything that had a video, we pretty
much have, you know, for the most part. Down there's
a few that you know, it's like we we played
it and then we're like, I did it go over
and then it's like, you know, we're going to keep
working on it.
Speaker 3: So yeah, you know, that makes sense.
Speaker 21: We've got a lot of deep cuts on the on
the set as well, which a lot of people in
the crowd appreciate, especially true crew crew fans.
Speaker 14: They love that stuff, like like what we just actually
added danger to the list.
Speaker 15: A round up show to the Devil yeah, we were
playing all the show the Devil.
Speaker 14: All right, Yeah, it might as well just finish it off.
Speaker 16: Now we can do the We can do the whole
album in the show if we wanted to know.
Speaker 3: Oh that's cool. Yeah, yeah, very cool.
Speaker 15: We can. Ok.
Speaker 3: Yeah with the current draft, do you do like, do
you have any special effects that you used during the show.
Is there any kind of uh, other than you know, lights.
Speaker 17: His pants on.
Speaker 14: Yeah, I haven't played naked yet.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean we do.
Speaker 5: We bring the whole thing in.
Speaker 16: We've got the smoke, we've got the lights, we've got
the we we use video so we like to you know,
obviously you know we're we're we're impersonating them, but we
like to bring the videos into the performance so that
people kind of get transported. They're like, oh, you know there,
I remember this now, and we we provide that soundtrack
while they're kind of watching the movie, you know. So
it's kind of a you know, I think I think
it creates a cool aura.
Speaker 20: Yeah, it's a it's an event. We've got our show
to the Devil. Red light boxes we stand on as
we start in the beginning to start the show. We
you know, we have you know, the modern led lights
and those are sometimes in sync with the music, so
we get you know, strobing and effect.
Speaker 15: From from the from those lights.
Speaker 17: Uh.
Speaker 20: Plus you know all our banners, as he said, we
either use TVs or projectors to show the you.
Speaker 15: Know, the time period and the influence.
Speaker 20: So it's kind of you're watching us do it as
a tribute and you're remembering, you know, if you haven't
seen you know, the videos, and certainly MTV doesn't play
videos anymore.
Speaker 15: Right, if you haven't been on YouTube recently, it brings brings.
Speaker 20: You back, especially if you were you know, you were
there during the eighties a day right, yeah, time man, Yes,
it's pretty cool the spectacle.
Speaker 3: Are there any Are there any Molly Cruz songs that
were challenging to learn as a band? I mean, I
would tend to doubt it, but you never know. So
I'm curious, what are there any songs that you've learned
that had anything about them that was kind of unusual,
that was trickier than maybe some.
Speaker 17: Of the others or Mick Mars is very unorthodox.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 17: Yeah, Like you listen to it and you go, oh,
it sounds fairly simple. But he because of his influence
as his playing is to me, I would say, not
in a negative way, but backwards from what the average
guitarist would would play. So a lot of times I'm like,
how this is weird, you know, So I'm playing something
as close as possible because it's just my brain won't
let me play this weird this weird run that he
does exactly the way he does it. So I'm like,
I got to do this as close as possible. But
when you're digging through it and nitpicking everything like that,
it's he has a very unique style that you know,
I've always appreciated his his writing and his playing, but
when we started doing one, well, when I joined and
started really nitpicking, it was like, Wow, that's weird. That's
weird that he plays it that way.
Speaker 3: Is he not one of kind of the unsung heroes? Absolutely?
I mean one of the most underrated.
Speaker 17: Yeah, especially for how big the band is as a whole.
You know, he's you know, he not like a Steve
I or Eddie van Halen or you know, Rest and Beast.
Speaker 16: You know, yeah, yeah, he's just he's a nasty player.
It's like, yeah, he's got that high overdrive sound. I mean,
that's that's critical to the band, you know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, like you look at a song like Home
Sweet Home. So personally, even when I was a kid,
I never really liked that song very much.
Speaker 15: Get Out.
Speaker 3: Shows over except for the solo. The solo is magnificent.
The rest of it, I never I never liked the
way Vince Neil. I like the way you sing it, Chris,
but you're a better but you are, I mean, you're
a better singer than Vince Neil ever was.
Speaker 15: Yeah, in his heyday, I mean it was it was
a character. It's a character voice.
Speaker 20: Yeah, it's a very specific sound that he had, and
you know the look and the high energy.
Speaker 15: You know, he had his he had his moment in
the sun. Obviously they're still they're still playing. But you
know your question.
Speaker 20: Some of the things are some of those songs, if
you don't sing it in character, like Shouted the Devil
Doctor feel Good, there's no place to breathe. I'm assuming
if Nicky wrote those lyrics, he did not write him
from the point of view of a singer. It's just
rambling on and there's just nowhere to stop. So it's difficult.
You can, you know, see it in some of the
crew performances. Vince doesn't try for that stuff, and oh
I know yeah, like.
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, he kind of just talks his way through
the through the songs.
Speaker 20: Now, yeah, I sing I sing it, you know, I
want to sing it adapt you know, to that high
vocal and the range, like you sound like him, But
I want to I want to belt it out.
Speaker 3: But from a technical standpoint, you're nailing it, whereas he
no longer. Yeah, like I would, I would argue you're
singing it better than he even sang it.
Speaker 15: Yeah, thank you, but you're but you sound like him.
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
Speaker 17: Yeah, suddenly we all can't fit in the room.
Speaker 15: Yes, well that fits with the that fits with Vince.
Speaker 3: Right, Yes, you're thinner than he is as well.
Speaker 14: Yes heard these days we can't call you Vince Neil.
Speaker 12: But.
Speaker 22: That is already taken by.
Speaker 19: Yeah, that's the challenge too. So see we have that
as a built in excuse.
Speaker 16: So if we do, if you know, if Chris does
hit a wrong note, we can just say, well, he's
trying to be authentic, right exactly?
Speaker 3: Do you want to play another one?
Speaker 15: Sure, I just need to grab.
Speaker 3: Yes, we brought we brought her Jack, but.
Speaker 17: Right yeah, I didn't sign on for that.
Speaker 3: Yeah you can have that on. Yeah you have it
on the tour bus, you know, not while driving exactly
exactly What do you guys if you are just joining us,

Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's a great song. And that's another one
I'd forgotten about.
Speaker 20: But yeah, it's kind of a deep track. But yeah, yeah,
it was fun to play front But that's that's fun. Yeah,
we're just trying to think of something that you could
deliver in here on acoustic yeah. Yeah, it's a great, great,
a ton of stuff that we don't have, the the electrification.

But he is technically, I mean, he's an incredible drummer. Yeah, yeah,
he can.
Speaker 21: He he could be pretty technical in a lot of songs.
There's I wouldn't narrow it down to a particular song,
but there's a lot of accents that he does, symbol chokes,
certain fills. You really, when you're learning them, you gotta
feel them rather than just going into it because they're
just they're so particular.
Speaker 14: Yeah, in a lot of tunes.
Speaker 17: And the other great thing about our drummers he can't
play to a click either.
Speaker 14: Oh really, that's not.
Speaker 3: Lee Crue is here with us live in studio. And
so you guys were recently featured in Paper Jam Paper
Jam magazine. Are wonderful friends and yes, yes, how did
that come about? Did they find you? Did you find them?
Speaker 12: Or?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 19: I think a little mutual. We were talking.
Speaker 16: I met Sheila online and we actually went back and
forth a little bit and she said, yeah, you guys
should come down and do it.
Speaker 19: So we said why not.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, oh that's very cool. Yeah, they're amazing, you know,
they're they're doing great things in the scene. And now
so speaking of the scene, like where where do you
all play?
Speaker 14: Where?
Speaker 3: Where does uh? Where does not Lee Cruz perform? Like
are there certain places that you go back to on
a regular basis?
Speaker 17: That's a little personal ye.
Speaker 3: Together, all of you together on that's even more personal.
Speaker 19: Yes, So there's not.
Speaker 16: I mean, there's there's a couple of places we've done
repeat stuff at. Where more we're looking for the kind
of the bigger venue to play in the production is
so huge, it's tough for people to get the actual
you know, you you scale it down, it's not the
same yea, So we can do it and the music
will still hold up, but it's but it's like we
like people to have that whole experience. So we're looking
to do like the theater circuit things like that. So
we kind of try to reserve it for bigger.
Speaker 3: Places, okay, okay, and not as much.
Speaker 16: We don't want to oversaturate. We know there's a lot
of bands that go out there and to be gigging
every weekend, but we don't want, you know, we don't
want to do that. It's such a you know, we
want to want to keep it real and keep it,
keep it new every.
Speaker 15: Time, you know, right, right.
Speaker 3: I'm always curious about this too. So with tribute bands,
is there anything like like legally like does anybody from
Monty Crew?
Speaker 17: Well, now you're you're opening up a can of worms.
You're you're you're putting the word out talking about we
don't own the rights to anything, right right?
Speaker 3: But you so, but you don't hear from anybody right
like nobody?
Speaker 16: No, I think it's I think so I'll tell you
if Facebook is strange, So the best thing to do
in like the social media world, if you label yourself strange,
if you labor yourself as satire, as a parody, then
you kind of you're you're protected. So I have another
friend who's in another Martley Creature bit band who had
a similar thing happened.
Speaker 19: But we both had our pages taken down in the beginning.
Speaker 16: Yeah, and and that was because in the beginning, it
was because we're not labeled as satire. Okay, okay, So
now we are and we haven't had that problem. So
we've built a good following where I think we're closing
it on five thousand people.
Speaker 3: Excellent, right now, that's really good.
Speaker 17: And a thousand of them are actual people and the
other four thousand.
Speaker 14: That's not.
Speaker 5: Liar.
Speaker 3: Now that's great though. No, you guys are doing great.
By the way, paper Jam is in the chat room
and says, hi, not Lee Crue, great band, great, we
love you guys. Sorry for coffee. I had a I
was sick like back in December, and uh, this cough
just lasts for weeks and weeks and weeks. So I'm
not sick. I just I was sick.
Speaker 17: But the dry weather doesn't help.
Speaker 3: No, well that's the thing, Yeah exactly, that's what it is.
I have this dry cough and every week it's a
little bit better.
Speaker 9: He has this magic thing called a humidifier.
Speaker 12: He just doesn't actually turn it on.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: You have to put governed mail, you have to put
water into it and then turn it on. It's it's
a lot. It's a lot cleaning.
Speaker 17: Every once in a while it gets molding.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, exactly. Well the one we have is new, newish, right,
but brand new. Buy a new one every year and
throw it out at the end of the season.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not kidding. I won't I won't keep them. Yeah,
I worked in a nice U s see you. Nope.
Speaker 9: Oh, yeah, bye.
Speaker 3: Do you guys, do you have anything coming up? Do
do you have some shows uh booked for twenty twenty five?
Speaker 19: Yeah, we've got to.
Speaker 16: We've got a couple of things we're working on, which
we're branching out to some other states too. We're looking
at New York right now, a couple of things like
that putting together. And we want to put together, like
I said, some theater shows with two or three band
type shows, you know, bigger houses.
Speaker 19: Yeah, bigger productions.
Speaker 12: We do.
Speaker 19: We do have one right now in the calendar for June.
Let's see.
Speaker 16: That's it in Worcester at Ralph's. And we also haven't
we have something else coming up on potentially uh at
the end of June. Okay, And that's that's the New
York show. We're working on something trying to work with
the Rochester Opera House, so I'm in communication with them
right now. So we're hoping to put together something over
there also with a couple of the bands.
Speaker 3: Oh, very cool, yep, very cool, excellent, excellent.
Speaker 15: That Ralph show is a summer it's an outdoor show,
right yeah, outdoor. Yeah, it's outdoor, so outdoors.
Speaker 3: Yep, that'll be fine.
Speaker 15: It'll be cool in the summer. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Absolutely absolutely. Is it a lot of work to get
into because because you do the whole uh you know what,
what do you play live? Obviously you're in full full costume.
I mean, is that a lot of work to get
into that?
Speaker 14: Or yeah?
Speaker 3: Pretty definitely absolutely.
Speaker 16: We We have our costume designer, Brittany over here in
the room. If it weren't from her or for her,
we wouldn't make it. So we her and the other
girls help us out a lot. Brittany actually designed and
made all the costumes pretty much for us.
Speaker 3: Okaddy, it's very very frustrating.
Speaker 18: You cannot find anything of eight.
Speaker 3: Rock really yeah, you actually like hands stitch.
Speaker 18: I literally went the.
Speaker 3: Oh that's incredible.
Speaker 22: Wow that so chains on everything made fringe from scratch
because that's pretty You.
Speaker 5: Learned real quick.
Speaker 19: You have to look up women's stuff.
Speaker 22: Oh yeah, definitely, and I just took stuff from there
and then made modifications to it.
Speaker 3: Oh wow, okay, I just wanted to look very authentic.
Speaker 17: Yeah yeah, yeah, my heart does all the makeup to
Oh really yeah, we help, but I mean she's okay.
Speaker 5: I'm very good at like.
Speaker 18: You give me a picture, I can make something like
the picture got.
Speaker 4: Them all done?
Speaker 3: Oh excellent, excellent, very cool.
Speaker 16: Yeah, so that's that's another thing. I mean, these lovely
ladies here. We have the third one who couldn't be
with us today, but we we've been.
Speaker 19: They're in our show.
Speaker 16: I mean, they come out, they do backups for most
of the set now, which is really good. Adds another
depth and dimension kind of what not Motley Crue does anyway. Yeah,
but but we're even adding them to some of the
earlier stuff and you know, it's it's sounding good.
Speaker 19: It's just bring bringing everything to.
Speaker 14: A new level.
Speaker 17: And Motley Crue had the nasty habits and we have.
Speaker 15: Right my vocal backup support and gives me a chance
to breathe.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 20: On stage, you know, the costumes they're great. Yeah, put
you in character. It feels awesome. But they're they're hot,
they're they they you know, they're not very super functional.
So yeah, the ladies help us a lot, as you said,
you know, whether it's hair, makeup, costume design, all the
all the ladies are not used.
Speaker 18: To having long hair, a face full of makeup and
wearing leather.
Speaker 26: Right.
Speaker 17: Yeah, I pretty much come out and I say hello
to everybody in the band at the beginning of the show,
and then I put the wig on and and that's it.
I don't see them again until the end of the night.
I can't see anything.
Speaker 9: Yeah.

chat room from Legion of Solace. They're a great organization
