Review by Heather Slossen
I was raised on all the big rockers of the 80s, so of course I was in love with Billy Idol at a young age. I have my parents to thank for that. One of my childhood dreams was to see Billy Idol live, I never thought it would happen. That is until his new album, Devil’s Playground was announced.
We left for the House of Blues early in the day and had about an hour to spare before the show started. There wasn’t an opening act, it was just non-stop Billy for close to two hours. He played all of his old hits and quite a few songs from Devil’s Playground. It was an amazing show, I was completely blown away. He ended the night with “Mony, Mony.” The only other song I wish they would have played is “Cradle of Love”, that is one of my favorite songs of all time. All in all, this was one of the best shows I had ever been to. Billy looks just as good now as he did back in the 80s, I’m hoping he’ll make his way back to SC soon, I’m keeping my fingers crossed!!! If this tour comes to your area, I highly recommend going to see the show. You won’t be disappointed!
