CAMP FREDDY’s final sold-out show of their month-long May residency at The Roxy in West Hollywood culminated last night (May 29) with a special appearance by BILLY IDOL. Idol, guitarist Steve Stevens and drummer Brian Tichy treated the packed house to a cover of THE DOORS’ 'LA Woman', also featuring The Doors’ own Robbie Krieger on guitar along with Camp Freddy. The crowd went wild when Idol, Stevens, Tichy and Camp Freddy - Billy Morrison, Dave Navarro, Matt Sorum, Donovan Leitch and Chris Chaney - launched into Idol’s classic hits 'Dancing With Myself' and 'Rebel Yell'.

Another highlight of the night was a duet by Juliette Lewis and LEITCH on X’s 'Los Angeles.' In a surprise twist, while millions of Lost fans were at home watching the two-hour season finale of the hit show, Naveen Andrews (Sayid on the show) joined Camp Freddy onstage to play guitar on the Sex Pistols’ 'EMI'. Andrews also joined in the all-star CAMP FREDDY finale of The Stooges’ “I Wanna Be Your Dog,” when Olympic Gold Medalist snowboarder Shawn White also came to the stage to lend his vocal pipes. Earlier in the night, TRAIN’s Pat Monahan belted out a powerful rendition of LED ZEPPELIN’s 'Whole Lotta Love' with Krieger on guitar.

The star-studded night also featured special appearances from the following additional music guests: Nick Hexum (311), Jerry Cantrell (ALICE IN CHAINS), Mark McGrath (SUGAR RAY), Chris Vrenna (MARILYN MANSON, GNARLS BARKLEY, NIN), Wayne Static (STATIC-X), John5 (ROB ZOMBIE), Leah Duors (MCQUEEN) and the all-female punk rock dance group the Darling Stilettos (featured each week).
