Samantha Ronson performing at The Viper Room with Jalopy 2009
On a dark and stormy night...
FINE, who am I kidding a lil drizzle in LA and everyone goes crazy! On the corner of Sunset Blvd and Larrabee in a lil joint known as The Viper Room gathered a group of rockers, fashionistas and twitter fans. For those of you unfamiliar with The Viper Room, it was once owned by actor Johnny Depp and was once a hang-out for Hollywood's hottest young actors, regulars included Jennifer Aniston and Sean Penn.
Lead vocalist and guitarist, Luke Sundquist took the stage with his band Jalopy and performed their songs for an electric audience. Luke who was once Samantha Ronson's guitarist rocked the crowd and made one special request. During the middle of Jalopy's set, the lead singer (Luke) requested that Samantha come up on stage with the band and sing a song with them.
Samantha took to the stage in front of a screaming audience and sang a cover of Kim Carnes "Bette Davis Eyes." It's always fun to see one of your friends be able to perform live and rile up a crowd. It's even more encouraging to see them continue with a laugh even if they mess up.
Check out a lil snippet recorded from the night. Apologies for the bumpy part, there was a dancing girl whose motion in her ocean kept flowing my way.
