July 3, 2006

A video clip of CAMP FREDDY — the Los Angeles-based "jam" group featuring guitarists Dave Navarro (ex-JANE'S ADDICTION, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS) and Billy Morrison (ex-THE CULT bassist, current CIRCUS DIABLO vocalist) alongside VELVET REVOLVER members Matt Sorum (drums) and Scott Weiland (vocals) — performing the DAVID BOWIE classic "Ziggy Stardust" at The Palms Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday (July 1) has been posted online at Morrison's official web site. The clip, which features Morrison on lead vocals and a guest appearance by VELVET REVOLVER guitarist Dave Kushner, can be viewed at this location (Quicktime required).

Commented Morrison: "Let me tell you, we had a LOT of fun [on Saturday]!! Absolutely crazy temperatures on stage (add about 30 degrees with the stage lights on top of an already sweltering Las Vegas heat!!) and a few bucks' worth of fireworks were added to the mix and CAMP FREDDY had a blast. We played a 45-minute set, with special guests Brandon Boyd, Slash, Abby Gennet (from SLUNT),Cisco Adler, Benji Madden (GOOD CHARLOTTE) and Steve Issacs and Stephen Perkins from THE PANIC CHANNEL. Those guys had a hell of a day, as they did an acoustic radio set, then performed a full TPC set, and THEN did the CAMP FREDDY set!! But everyone had an awesome time. Big thanks to The Palms, Area 108 and 944 magazine for putting on a hell of a party. After the show, we were treated to some real Palms hospitality in both Ghostbar and Rain (the two clubs in the casino)."

Check put pictures from the show at this location. More photos can be found at Film Magic.

CAMP FREDDY has been in and out of the recording studio over the past couple of years recording what is expected to eventually be released as the band's debut album. Among the cuts that are set to appear on the effort are a version of Marc Bolan's "20th Century Boy" (featuring CAMP FREDDY's own Donovan Leitch on vocals, and Steve Jones from THE SEX PISTOLS on lead guitar) and THIN LIZZY's "Jailbreak" (featuring ex-ALICE IN CHAINS guitarist Jerry Cantrell on vocals and Billy Duffy [ex-THE CULT] on lead guitar). Other guest musicians include RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS drummer Chad Smith and singer Macy Gray.
