After nearly 10 months away, Vince Neil, lead singer of Motley Crue, made a powerful comeback Friday night at Boston’s MGM Music Hall at Fenway. His return follows a serious but undisclosed health scare that forced the postponement of Motley Crue’s much-anticipated Las Vegas residency earlier this year. Fans captured Neil’s energetic seven-song solo set, which shared the bill with rock icons Bret Michaels and Stephen Pearcy.

Overcoming the Odds

Neil’s last performance was with Motley Crue at the Aftershock Festival on October 13, 2024, while his final solo show happened a month earlier in September. Speaking candidly to the crowd before launching into the title track of Shout at the Devil, Neil expressed his gratitude and determination:

“I haven’t been on stage for almost a year. I had a medical thing that they said I wouldn’t recover from in time to perform again. But I said, ‘No way.’ And here I am tonight, proud to be with you all.”

This comeback is a testament to Neil’s resilience and passion for performing, especially following the announcement that the band’s planned residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM in Las Vegas would be delayed. The residency, originally set for March and April 2025, was postponed to allow Neil time to focus on his recovery.

Looking Ahead: Motley Crue’s Rescheduled Residency

Motley Crue’s 10-show residency has been rescheduled to begin September 12 and wrap up on October 3, promising fans an unforgettable experience once again. Neil previously thanked fans for their patience and support, emphasizing that his health remains his top priority to ensure he can deliver the high-energy performances Crueheads expect.

As Neil proves he’s far from done, the rock community eagerly awaits the band’s triumphant return to the stage later this year.
