(LA Times) Cool Perry Farrell celebrates 50th birthday bash concert with Dave Navarro, Debbie Harry, Tom Morello, Porno for Pyros and members of Cypress Hill. Clearly, lots of alcohol was involved because Billy Idol was allowed to perform (with pics)   (vegasblog.latimes.com) divider line 27

I'd rather hear Billy Idol than most of today's "artists".

A veritable who's who of who used to be talented.

Came in to say this.

Bruce Dickinson is ONLY 50. ONLY. NOT JOKING. (Started with Samson in 1973 (!) )

/Hope I look that good.

1) Saw Billy Idol live in 2004. He was really GOOD.

2) Had no idea Perry Farrell was anywhere near 50. He looks great.

I'd like to hear the all-star jam version of "Rapture" with that lineup. I can hear B-Real right now rapping about eating Cadillacs, Lincolns too, Mercury and Subaru and it don't stop...

Saw Perry up close and personal fall of '07. He looked about 30.
As much of an artist and creator, he's been an organizer and facilitator. Hopefully he keeps it up.

Happy b-day, rock star.

Saw Billy Idol several years back at Lollapalooza...one of the best live acts I've ever seen; and I've seen my share of concerts.

That guy is a creep.

I never thought that Perry Farrell would make old bones.

I saw Billy Idol in San Jose a few years ago and it was one of the best shows I've ever seen for the money ($20).

 
NittLion78 2009-04-14 02:10:39 PM  
Oh boy. Now I feel old.

 
Dialectic 2009-04-14 02:33:54 PM  
Yes, he's 50. And he's old, he should sut the f*ck up!

 
Uncle Pooky 2009-04-14 04:23:00 PM  
My first question to God upon arrival in Heaven will be "Why was Perry Farrell famous?"

Put me down in the likes Billy Idol group....Wife and I went to see him a couple of years ago (may 3 years ago?)...I was fully prepared for a piss-poor, grasping at the former glory, type of show.....


He farking rocked! Kick ass show for sure.......

You saw me here last week, you thought I was a pretty cool dude.

Well considering, he was like thirty, like 20 years ago... i'd say the math adds up pretty nicely for him being 50, now. Call me crazy.

Well, when "Been Caught Stealing" first came out nineteen years ago, he looked twenty, so I would believe he's forty more than he's fifty.

And BTW, there's nice-looking men in clean, white coats behind you! :D

 
Tect 2009-04-15 01:22:39 AM  
Wow! Didn't realize it's been 45 years since he was caught stealing.

 
sisterinarms 2009-04-15 03:45:35 PM  
I heart the Billy Idol.
