CHRISSIE HYNDE Performs With (And On) CAMP FREDDY In Hollywood; Video Available

July 18, 2008

CAMP FREDDY — the Los Angeles-based "jam" group featuring Dave Navarro (ex-JANE'S ADDICTION, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS),Billy Morrison (ex-THE CULT bassist, current CIRCUS DIABLO vocalist),Matt Sorum (VELVET REVOLVER, ex-GUNS N' ROSES),Donovan Leitch (son of legendary folk singer Donovan),and Chris Chaney (JANE'S ADDICTION, ALANIS MORRISETTE) — performed last night (Thursday, July 17) at the Viper Room in West Hollywood, California. The show was a benefit for their longtime tour manager Scott P, who has been diagnosed with cancer.

Commented Navarro: "We, CAMP FREDDY, thank you and I know that Scott thanks you! We had an amazing line up featuring Abby from SLUNT, Warren DeMartini [RATT], Terri Nunn [BERLIN], Corey Parks, Corey Taylor [SLIPKNOT], Billy Duffy [THE CULT], Dave Kushner [VELVET REVOLVER], Mark McGrath [SUGAR RAY], Stephen Perkins [JANE'S ADDICTION] and Chrissie Hynde [THE PRETENDERS]! Yes, THE Chrissie Hynde. She got up with us for a totally unexpected version of 'Brass In Pocket' and a version of 'Suffragette City'. I think she even threw some Elvis in there, if I am not mistaken. So, this is where I'd expect the press to make a big deal out of the performance, but let me tell you this... She turned in what rock is partly all about... Not giving a fuck and having a great time not giving a fuck! Sure, I had to coax her into doing 'Brass'... But once we got there... It was magical! We have done 'Brass in Pocket' many times as a band but doing it with Chrissie was absolutely a highlight in my career. Sure... Making out with her during the song didn't suck either!"

Video footage of Navarro and Hynde "making out" on stage and Hynde pretending to "go down" on Navarro can be viewed below.
