The show, her first with Hole for 11 years, included established hits from the band’s career, alongside a clutch of new tracks set to feature on the new album ‘Nobody’s Daughter‘. As previously reported on Live4ever, Courtney Love was due to make her return with Hole at the Proud Galleries in Camden last week, but the band were forced to cancel after she was held in her hotel for safety reasons due to an illegal party nearby.
Courtney and her new Hole line-up, which now includes Micko Larkin on guitar, Shawn Dailey on bass, and Stu Fisher on drums, debuted eight new songs last night (Feb 17th), which included ‘Skinny Little Bitch’, ‘Honey’, ‘Letter To God’, and ‘Pacific Coast Highway‘. The show was opened with a mix of ‘Pretty On The Inside’ and The Rolling Stones‘ classic ‘Sympathy For The Devil‘, before being closed with an acoustic-laced encore of ‘Northern Star‘ and new track ‘Never Go Hungry Again‘.
New record ‘Nobody’s Daughter‘, which has been recorded with the help of Smashing Pumpkins leader Billy Corgan, is set for release in April 2010.
