Mötley Crüe performs first concert with guitarist John 5

Mötley Crüe and Def Leppard kicked-off their 2023 tour last February 10 at the Etess Arena in Atlantic City, NJ. It was the first concert that the American group made with their new touring guitarist John 5. He replaced the original guitar player Mick Mars (71), that due to health issues retired from the road in 2022. For decades he struggles with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) – a form of arthritis of the spine that causes inflammation between the vertebrae and in the joints between the spine and pelvis.

I'm a Brazilian journalist who always loved Classic Rock and Heavy Metal music. That passion inspired me to create Rock and Roll Garage over 6 years ago. Music has always been a part of my life, helping me through tough times and being a support to celebrate the good ones. When I became a journalist, I knew I wanted to write about my passions. After graduating in journalism from the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, I pursued a postgraduate degree in digital communication at the same institution. The studies and experience in the field helped me improve the website and always bring the best of classic rock to the world! MTB: 0021377/MG
