Hole played a semi-surprise, late-night show at the Roxy in Los Angeles last Friday night, and
the sold-out crowd witnessed Courtney Love and company rock, if ever so fashionably, through a
two-hour set.
The group also tossed out a wildly varied batch of covers during the show, including the
Lemonheads' "Into Your Arms," Bob Dylan's "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue" and the Velvet
Underground classic, "Pale Blue Eyes."
Frontwoman Courtney Love also brought her current boyfriend and "People vs. Larry Flynt"
co-star, Edward Norton, onstage to play guitar for a few songs. As we previously reported,
Hole is reportedly looking to recruit a third guitarist for a spring tour -- but it's not
likely to be Norton.
The performance at the Roxy marked Hole's last show of its December mini-tour, and the band is
set to enjoy a little holiday downtime before traveling to Australia and New Zealand in
January for The Big Day Out festival.
