A band that has always had public health and good hygiene at the forefront of their collective mind (not!), Mötley Crüe have released a new official lyric video for its Theatre of Pain classic “Home Sweet Home,” which is newly relevant as people around the world try to help curb the spread of the new coronavirus through self-quarantining and social isolation. “Crüeheads. We’re ALL in this together, please follow the guidelines in your area,” the band commented on the clip’s release. “A short time of social distancing will mean we sort this out ASAP. Stay safe out there and make sure to wash your hands and most importantly, stay Home Sweet Home. Love to you all.”
A few days ago, Crüe bassist and songwriter Nikki Sixx commented on the global crisis on social media, calling for fans to do their part. “Wouldn’t it be great to see people stop self promoting right now and turn towards friends & family instead?” he offered on his personal Instagram. “Reach out to people around you who might be scared or need help.Also,do we really need more fear mongering? The news is doing a great job at that already…Maybe find a way to dampen down the hysteria.”
This summer Mötley Crüe are, of course, set to raise some hysteria when they hit the road on a massive U.S. stadium tour with Def Leppard, Poison and Joan Jett & the Blackhearts. The run is scheduled to kick off on July 7th in Miami, Florida — see the full routing below.
