Pretty Boy Floyd hit the side stage promptly at 5:15
p.m. in Burgettstown to warm-up fans for the evening’s show. Recalling glam
rock favorites like “Leather Boyz” and “Junkie Girl,” Pretty Boy Floyd rocked
things out for a small crowd of real fans. Highlights included the sing-along
favorite “48 Hours” and a cover of Motley Crue’s “Toast of the Town.”
These
days original vocalist Steve Summers is joined by Lesli on bass, Dish on drums,
and Chadpole on guitar, which was a disappointment to Keri Kelli fans who'd
heard of him touring with the band again in Europe. While Kristy “Krash” Majors
is not touring with Pretty Boy Floyd, he is concentrating on his booking agency,
Artist's Worldwide.
Even though the band was exhausted
from several days of travel and no sleep, they made it out to Hoorah's in
West View, a jaunt across town from the amphitheater, to perform as special guests during
the local band Skell's performance. While most fans who'd heard the rumor
that they would perform for an hour to an hour and a half, most who'd journeyed
out after Poison only caught a few songs, but it was worth it, because the band
was blessed with much better sound and perhaps even a few hours rest.
Pretty Boy Floyd has recently released The Vault, which includes
19 unreleased demos and liner notes by Majors and is available through
Perris Records.
Majors will be releasing his first solo CD this August, also through
Perris Records.
