Vince Neil delays Mötley Crüe's Las Vegas residency due to 'required medical procedure'

"To all the Crüeheads who were looking forward to see us this Spring, I'm truly sorry," Neil said in a statement shared on Instagram. "My health is my top priority so I can bring you the awesome shows you deserve, and I can't wait to return to the stage. 

"Thank you for all the well wishes that keep reaching me. Your support means more than you know."

Mötley Crüe's residency at the Park MGM was originally scheduled to begin at the end of March and run through April 19. 

New dates will be moved to September "due to a required medical procedure recently advised by vocalist Vince Neil's doctors," the band said online.

"Please join us in wishing Vince a speedy recovery," Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee and John 5 said in a joint statement. "We are looking forward for him to get well again and to take over Vegas together in September. 

"We can't wait to see you all out there, and thank you for your understanding and support in the meantime."

New dates for the residency at Dolby Live begin Sept. 12 and run through Oct. 3.

It's unclear what medical procedure Neil will undergo. Fox News Digital contacted the band's representatives for more information.

"On board Mr. Neil's plane were two pilots and two passengers. Mr. Neil was not on the plane," Neil's representative confirmed to Fox News Digital at the time. 

"Mr. Neil's thoughts and prayers go out to everyone involved, and he is grateful for the critical aid of all the first responders assisting today."
