Hard Rock’s 2008 Ambassadors of Rock Tour (AOR), a global concert series featuring top artists and bands, sets another killer stop on its worldwide trek. Actually, make that five stops. Mötley Crüe, heavy metal survivors of self-inflicted '80s decadence, will join the AOR Tour for five big shows across Japan, from Fukuoka to Tokyo. These boys survived themselves and continue to rock harder than ever. Believe it. From October 21 to October 26, Japan will be under the influence when Vince, Tommy, Nikki, and Mick bring their rock to the people and the people bring their love of rock to Vince, Tommy, Nikki, and Mick. Go check it out for yourself. Japan loves the Crüe more than most and these shows are gonna be off the chain.

Oh, the '80s. What a wonderful decade. At least for the boys in Mötley Crüe, that is. The '80s brought them great success and riches as they rode atop the heavy metal wave that sprang from the volatile and churning currents of the Los Angeles music scene. Unfortunately, the '80s also brought them monstrous drug addictions, from which they'd eventually emerge years later, thank you very much. They've learned and experienced much in the last 27 years and they haven't slowed down a bit. Well, maybe Mick, but that's not his fault, as you know if you know anything about the guys. Mötley Crüe has endured, despite their worst habits, and have come out the other side stronger than ever.
