Panic! At the Disco Ask To Borrow Motley Crue's Circus Tent

And cover a Queen classic...

Share

Panic! At The Disco are hoping to line-up Motley Crue’s tent for future tours.

The emo heavyweights kick off the US arena tour on November 7 in Florida and say that the shows will have a circus feel to them.

Guitarist Ryan Ross tells mtv that in future they’d like to use Motley Crue’s famous tent.

He said: “We spoke to this guy about getting the tent, but then he told us that Motley Crue might use it again on some upcoming tour, so we’ll have to see, we may have to do without a tent.”

Explaining the theme of the current tour, Ross explains:  "We totally know the show needs to be bigger this time around, so we're throwing around a lot of ideas.

"We're going to build a house of mirrors, with ramps for us to come down. And in the front of the stage, underneath our keyboard and cello players, we're going to have animal cages, and we're going to put dancers painted to look like lions in there. I'm talking about full-body paint, with teeth and a tail."

The band are also planning to augment their set list with a cover of ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ by Queen.

Their covers of Smashing Pumpkins’ ‘Tonight Tonight’ and Radiohead’s ‘Karma Police’ are already a staple of Panic! At The Disco sets.
