Sunset Boulevard will be shut down to traffic on Saturday August 20 between Doheny Drive and San Vicente Boulevard to accomodate the immense rock of the Sunset Strip Music Festival.

Mötley Crüe's headlining set will feature Tommy Lee's “360” vertical drum roller coaster. His wha? Watch the video. Tommy Lee (and a fan he'll pick from the audience) will be "launched into multiple vertical loops while continuing to perform," says SSMF.
