Lee to Miss Three More Motley Crue Gigs

3 months ago 22nd Aug 04:29

Tommy Lee will miss three more Motley Crue gigs as he waits for his wounded hand to heal - the rockers have recruited another replacement drummer for their upcoming shows.

Lee scorched his hand while playing with sparklers earlier this month (Aug09) and was sidelined for a string of concerts with Sevendust star Morgan Rose stepping in to help.

Rose's last show came at the Crue Fest 2 concert in Mansfield, Massachusetts on Wednesday night (19Aug09) but Lee is still suffering - so his bandmates have tapped their longtime pal, Street Drum Corps star Frank Zummo, to play the next three gigs.

Zummo will replace Lee at the band's gigs in Virginia on 21 and 22 August (09) and a show in North Carolina on 23 August (09), according to Blabbermouth.net.

The missed shows mark the first time Lee has been forced to sit out of a Motley Crue gig since June 2007, when he was sidelined with an arm injury.
