Vince Neil’s next gig will be two weeks behind bars, as the rocker pleaded guilty Wednesday to driving drunk on the Las Vegas Strip last summer.
A temporary judge accepted Neil’s agreed-upon plea deal after the Mötley Crüe frontman arrived to court 90 minutes early and got a jump on reporters, according to The Associated Press.
A court spokeswoman told the wire service the “Girls, Girls, Girls” singer was allowed to move up his case to allow him time to make a family court appearance elsewhere in Sin City.
Per the terms of Neil’s plea agreement that were reported last week, the rocker begins serving 15 days in the Clark County jail on Feb. 15, followed by as many days on house arrest.
That leaves him free to celebrate his 50th birthday next week, the AP reported.
Last week, the rocker and “Skating with the Stars” alum said he accepted “full responsibility” for his arrest.
"I have recognized that you can't drink and drive at all,'' he told the Las Vegas Review-Journal in a statement.
Neil was busted June 27 for speeding in his Lamborghini near the Las Vegas strip.
Cops said at the time Neil failed three tests to determine if he was drunk and a breath test showed his blood alcohol content at nearly three times the legal limit.
Back in the ‘80s, Neil pleaded guilty to drunk driving and vehicular manslaughter for being behind the wheel in a crash that resulted in the death of Hanoi Rocks drummer Nicholas "Razzle" Dingley and that seriously injured two others.
He went on to serve 15 days of a 30-day jail sentence, paid $2.5 million to his victims and performed 200 hours of community service, according to E!

Mel's Lawyers Serve Oksana's Ex-Bodyguard
Oksana Grigorieva's former bodyguard -- the man who knows her playbook inside and out -- was subpoenaed today in her custody war with Mel Gibson ... and he got served while he was blabbing about the case.
Sources connected to the case tell us Kristian Herzog (left) was served on Wednesday as he left one of several interviews he did about Mel and Oksana. One of his stops was with Mike Von Fremd (center) of ABC News.
As for why Mel's attorneys want to get Herzog in court -- we're told he was in virtually every lawyer's meeting that Oksana had last year and knows all her secrets.
Most importantly ... he is not bound by attorney-client privilege -- which makes him the perfect fly on the wall.

Motley Crue’s Vince Neil to Serve 2 Weeks Behind Bars in Plea Deal
Motley Crue singer Vince Neil will face the music for his Sin City drunk driving arrest last summer, reportedly accepting a plea deal that nets him two weeks in the slammer followed by as much time under house arrest.
An aide to Clark County District Attorney David Roger told The Associated Press Neil has agreed to plead guilty on Jan. 26 to driving under the influence.
"I have recognized that you can't drink and drive at all,'' Neil said in a statement to the Las Vegas Review-Journal on Tuesday. "I take full responsibility for my actions and will learn from this experience."
The rocker and “Skating with the Stars” alum was busted June 27 for allegedly driving his Lamborghini 60 miles per hour in a 45 mph zone near the Las Vegas strip.
Cops said at the time Neil failed three tests to determine if he was drunk and a breath test showed his blood alcohol content at nearly three times the legal limit.
Two days after the arrest, Neil admitted he “shouldn’t have been driving.”
“I should have gotten a limo from the Hilton,” he said then, Fox5Vegas reported.
The 49-year-old “Girls, Girls, Girls” singer will reportedly begin serving time behind bars Feb. 15.
Back in the ‘80s, Neil pleaded guilty to drunk driving and vehicular manslaughter for being behind the wheel in a crash that resulted in the death of Hanoi Rocks drummer Nicholas "Razzle" Dingley and that seriously injured two others.
