After weeks of waiting for the June 1 announcement about the status of “The Stadium Tour” with Motley Crue, Def Leppard, Poison and Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, not much news was provided other than the inevitable: the tour is being moved to summer 2021.

According to a posting from Motley Crue, the new dates are being rescheduled and tickets will be honored. Information about refunds will be forthcoming.

The bands were supposed to kick off the massive run – a reunion of sorts for Motley Crue, who announced in 2015 via an elaborate public signing of a "cessation of touring" document – June 18 in Jacksonville, Florida, and visit Truist Park on Aug. 9.
