(antiMusic) Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx is feeling good about their upcoming Cruefest 2 tour, which kicks off this Sunday. He had this to say about the rehearsals for the outing: "Just drug my tired ass back from production rehearsal day three. The set is insane. All new stage. All new lighting, pyro and video. Tons of new music. Some of these songs have never been played live before so we're still blowing off the cobwebs. To be honest it sounds pretty damn good. This is my fav set so far and feels so good be doing something new production wise. I can't wait to see your faces when the show starts… it's pretty sick, beginning to end…
"I have to say, this show really is a labor of love for us but the real credit goes to all the crew. They have been working around the clock for over a month on this. That is the part fans don't see. It doesn't matter if it's a Broadway play, a rock show or even a movie… sometimes the real stars of the show are behind the curtain… Thank you guys… so much."
