Mötley Crüe have been around for more than 40 years, and they still now how to make an entrance! On Monday night (October 7), the band surprised fans waiting outside the iconic Troubadour club in Los Angeles by arriving in the back of a trash truck. The unassuming sanitation vehicle parked in front of the 500-capacity venue and the band hopped out of the back, accompanied by an old mattress, bra, pair of high heels and bags of trash.
The intimate show is the first of three being billed as the "Höllywood Takeöver," where Mötley Crüe is playing the intimate venues that helped give them their start in the '80s. It will continue Wednesday (October 9) at the Roxy and Friday (October 11) at the Whisky a Go Go.
The band shared a video of the stunt, along with footage from the packed show, on social media. Check out their Instagram post below.
Earlier this month, Mötley Crüe announced a 2025 Las Vegas residency. They'll be playing 11 shows at Park MGM between March 28 and April 19. See a full list of dates below.
