Drummer Tommy Lee has played plenty of stadium shows with his band Motley Crue. But none was quite like his performance with the University of Nebraska marching band before 77,881 red-clad football fans.

"Oh yeah, it's real different," Lee said of Saturday's halftime show at the Baylor-Nebraska game in Memorial Stadium in Lincoln. "That was awesome, absolutely great."

Lee is in Lincoln filming a prospective NBC-TV reality show in which he takes classes at Nebraska including chemistry and the history of rock 'n' roll. If the show makes the cut, it is scheduled to air on NBC in July.
