“Tonight the 360 drum rollercoaster will roll it’s final time! ‪#upsidedownlife ‪#historybooks,” Tommy tweeted today.

Motley Crue fans attending the Atlantic City show at Trump Taj Mahal will be the last ones to witness Tommy’s rollercaster drums-kit, one of the highlights of the Motley Crue show.

On the current tour Tommy has played his drum solo from inside the rollercoaster, mostly upside down.

Motley Crue will perform two festival shows in Minnesota and Wisconsin in July and then its back to Vegas for a residency at the Hard Rock Hotel.

“We are proud to have pioneered the Las Vegas rock residency last year and can’t wait to come back this year to take it over the top with a brand new show that will be unlike anything you’ve ever seen Mötley Crüe do before,” said Nikki Sixx.

Mötley Crüe will perform 12 shows at The Joint. Show time is 9pm.
