Report: Rock Star for A Night At ROCK 'N' ROLL FANTASY CAMP

Tom Berg of The Orange County Register reports:

Five minutes till showtime at the House of Blues and something is amiss.

The lead singer of LISA & THE STREET SURVIVORS is not talking. Two guitarists are missing. And the drummer doesn't want to be here. Yet Paul Stanley of KISS is waiting to sing with them. Dickey Betts of THE ALLMAN BROTHERS has his guitar plugged in. And former LYNYRD SKYNYRD drummer Artimus Pyle has agreed to play congas — all with a band that's been together less than four days!
