CAMP FREDDY / CIRCUS DIABLO frontman Billy Morrison has issued the following update on Camp Freddy's Wreck The Halls charity gig:
"Another great evening of Rock And Roll at The Avalon Theater in Hollywood. I gotta tell you that my job doesn’t suck. Not only did we get to play all the usual great rock songs with our friends, I also got to watch Jonesy and his NEUROTIC OUTSIDERS play three classic punk tunes …… AND we were able to raise a bunch of money for a great charity (Musicians Assistance Program/MusiCares). Now how’s that for a good night out?! The evening was a complete success, starting with our very own DRIVE A who rocked the place awake when the doors opened, and quite frankly left a lot of jaded old Hollywood hacks with their mouths open. How many times do you see THIRTEEN year olds rocking like they’ve been doing it for years? A great band, and ONE TO WATCH!!THE RINGERS and Lily Allen also played, although I didn’t see them ….. I was busy getting ready, doing press, and generally warming up for our hour of madness! The set was shorter than usual, so that we were able to make way for the Neurotics reunion. But we did change it up quite a bit anyway – 'EMI' instead of 'Pretty Vacant' with The Pontiff, a killer version of THE CLASH’s 'Police And Thieves', with Elan on vocals (awesome) and Tony Kanal from NP DOUBT hitting the dub bass lines, and even a run through of the new single, 'Merry Xmas Everybody', with Terri Nunn and Steve Issacs giving us a helping hand in the choruses. Which reminds me, click here to buy the single.
A really good night out, and I saw a few familiar faces in the front rows …… even a Circus Diablo ‘Made In Hell’ shirt staring at me from the front row. I LOVE it!!! I did actually answer all your questions on camera as part of the V-Blog, but it was so long that the Blog became completely impractical. It would have taken a week to download it!! So I removed the answers, and figured I would keep the V-Blog to three minutes, and type the answers to the great questions you’ve been throwing at me. So here goes ……"
