Motley Crue's Vince Neil Bids Tearful Farewell At Final Show (Top Story)
. The concert ground to a temporary halt when drummer Tommy Lee's roller coaster stopped working, leaving him hanging in the air until roadies came to his rescue. Crue signed a legal document before their final tour began, making it all-but impossible for them to reunite after the Staples Center concert. Neil said: "This is the last time you'll see the four of us. Back in 1981 you got four teenagers roaming the streets of Hollywood, eating, drinking, smoking, f***ing. And here we f***ing are, 34 years later." He was overcome with emotion and had to pause while thanking the band's backstage team, then continued: "Most of all I want to thank you f***ers for coming out. Let's get to the f***ing music." Lee's bolted-down drumkit set off on its usual journey into the air above the stage on the Cruecifly roller coaster, before it came to a halt partway through. He said: "I can't believe this is happening on the last night. I knew something wasn't right when I took off." He had to climb off the construction before the kit was returned to its stage position.
