It was a dream come true for a fan of hard rocking band Motley Crue. For one night, he filled in for injured drummer Tommy Lee.

The lucky guy, Harvey Warren, performed with the band Wednesday at the Enmax Center in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada, Motley Crue's publicist Dvora Vener Englefield said in a press release issued here.

"After playing multiple shows wearing a brace and taking anti-inflammatory injections, Tommy Lee's doctor instructed him to give his injured right hand wrist a break after his tendinitis made it difficult for him to perform," Englefield said.

Warren, a Calgary resident who manages a Starbucks by day, moonlights as a drummer in the Canadian Motley Crue tribute band Broken Toyz.

When the show's promoter contacted Warren at work, according to the press release, he thought the call was a joke.

Lee hopes he will be ready to return to his drums for a concert on Friday night, Englefield said.

There are six dates left on the tour, she said. Motley Crue has played more than 100 shows so far on its Carnival of Sins tour.
