The weekend
With a cast of characters that any Bravo TV serial could only dream of showcasing, the band Mötley Crüe is set to rock three stages in Oklahoma this week. Vince Neil, Nikki Sixx, Mick Mars and Tommy Lee first touch down at the Choctaw Events Center way down in Durant for a show on Thursday, Sept. 12 (www.choctawcasinos.com) before making their way to the OKC Downtown Airpark, 1701 S. Western Ave., Oklahoma City, on Friday, Sept. 13. Special guest bands Filter and Hinder open the show just ahead of Stone Temple Pilots-minus-Scott-Weiland. The motley boys will finally get the stage to themselves for hits, such as “Girls, Girls, Girls,” “Dr. Feelgood” and “Kickstart My Heart.” Tickets are $46-$128, available at www.ticketstorm.com. The band finishe its tour of Oklahoma at the Buffalo Run Casino & Resort, 1000 Buffalo Run Blvd., in Miami — the final stop before Mötley Crüe's extended residency at the Hard Rock in Las Vegas. Hinder opens in Miami at 6 p.m. Tickets are $40 at www.buffalorun.com.
