At 4 p.m. this afternoon PST (TUES), heavy metal rockers Mötley Crüe will reveal details of their monstrous $100 million-plus Live Nation deal involving new albums and world tours. I first broke the story three months ago and after weeks of denials from all concerned, today I will be vindicated when “Crue Fest” is officially announced. I can even now safely tell you that as I reported yesterday (MON)—click here for that story—the tour will start in West Palm Beach, Florida on July 1 at the Cruzan Amphitheatre. Our Vegas rocker Vince Neil along with Tommy Lee and Nikki Sixx will play Tampa on July 3, Charlotte July 5, Dallas on July 24, Denver on July 27 and California and Pittsburgh dates throughout August.

We’ll get all the additional tour-schedule details this afternoon along with information on the first of the group’s three albums in the Fuse cable TV broadcast simultaneously with a Microsoft Internet feed. Live Nation at some point will also reveal all the details of its future giant similar touring and recording deals with Madonna and Jay-Z.

Incidentally Jay-Z will be performing with Mary J. Blige at MGM Grand Garden Arena on Saturday night. Luxe Life will be watching to see if Jay-Z has new wife Beyoncé (and her huge bling-bling wedding ring) on his arm on Friday night when he throws a mega 1940’s themed bash at his 40/40 sports ultra lounge club in the newly-opened Palazzo resort here.
