she's supremely talented and an incredible songwriter/producer! linda looked adorable with a pair of headphones on - telling us since she's always in the studio and they were her security blanket! after playing a few songs ms. perry joked around that she had discovered a 'new talent' and wanted to bring her out to play a few numbers... that is when **_courtney love_** took to the stage...with a mixed reaction from the crowd - either you love her or you hate her - i really don't think an 'in between state' exists when it comes to ms. love (she even joked that the crowd seemed to be split over her!) as you all know i simply worship her plus she's the inspiration behind my one lone tattoo - the flaming heart symbol from 'celebrity skin' (which i proudly displayed for **james st james** earlier in the evening) courtney looked great - a little on the skinny side but nothing to be concerned about - i did notice that she seemed a bit self-conscious about her stomach (pulling her shirt down) which looked ok to me - she played four songs off her upcoming new album **[nobody's daughter](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobody%27s_Daughter)** - although sadly there's no definite release date! i thought she sounded great and i was thrilled to see her sing live again (the last time i saw her play was may 19th '98 in NYC) i thought all the songs were great (plus she had the help of linda!) i especially liked her last song called 'letter to god' which was amazing and could be hit if she can find someone to release it! below is courtney's setlist... **†** nobody's daughter **†** sunset marquis **†** pacific coast highway **†** letter to god she didn't appear to be intoxicated in any manner but she still managed to keep up her messy vibe - knocking over a mic stand - demanding a cigarette (which she called a fag) she thrashed around a bit - a few flips of her head tossing around her blonde locks and even reaching out a bit to the audience - she hasn't lost a drop of her stage skills - i was in heaven! although i had some fat bitch behind me who was so drunk and way annoying - she kept trying to push her way past me but i totally stood my ground - she was about to get a swift kick from me if she didn't calm down! after ms. love was done - i was disappointed to see the crowd thin out a bit - which was really a shame for them - ms. perry knocked out a bunch more songs including the hit **beautiful** which she penned for **christina aguilera** and a few covers including **maybe i'm amazed** and a few **led zeppelin** tracks which blew me away! by that point i rejoined my pal **audra** and we totally rocked out - i was sweating profusely - hands up all around - it was just such a great show - i was so happy that i made the effort to get down there! make sure to check out what **NME** had _to say_ about the show... too bad linda doesn't play more live shows - she said that about every two year she like to play and get her 'ya-yas' out - and damn that's exactly what she did! by the time the show ended around 1:15 - i had almost forgotten that courtney had played - she was great too but **linda perry** was the star last night and deservedly so - right before ms. love left the stage she did say that what linda was about to play would blow our minds - and she was 100% correct! let's not forget though that courtney doesn't have the best reputation for being the 'nicest' person around - you have to read **sham ibrahim**'s _terrible experience_ after the show - i would have been devastated too! as much as i'd love to meet her - if i didn't go down like i envision - i'd be upset too! anyways i just wrote a really long post and i'm so beat and tomorrow i've got a big day ahead of me - it might be cool - it might not - either way i'll be sure to fill you all in! popbytes over & out for tonight - xxoo! ( right now i'm going to finally watch **casino royale** on DVD - see how far behind i am on movies?!?) **PS** many thanks to [**slippy**](https://www.vox.com/) for allowing me to use his pics - i tried to sneak my camera in but i had to toss it back in the car and my blackberry doesn't have a camera! i might be adding in more pics so check back if your interested... ## Related Posts - [What Will a Spice Girls 2007 Show LOOK like?](https://allwomenstalk.com/what-will-a-spice-girls-show-look-like/) - [Popbytes Loves Karen Black!](https://allwomenstalk.com/popbytes-loves-karen-black/) - [grease le mouret](https://allwomenstalk.com/victoria-beckham-gets-inspired-by-sandys-grease-threads/) - [Pop Nosh: 'the View' Now Rosie Free ...](https://allwomenstalk.com/pop-nosh-the-view-now-rosie-free-popbytes/) - [Rupaul in Starrbooty!](https://allwomenstalk.com/rupaul-in-starrbooty/) - [Oh That David Duchovny](https://allwomenstalk.com/oh-that-david-duchovny/) - [Paris Hilton: the Weekend Update...](https://allwomenstalk.com/paris-hilton-the-weekend-update/) - [Fabulously Rich and Famous: Justin Timberlake](https://allwomenstalk.com/fabulously-rich-and-famous-justin-timberlake/) - [Jane Bows out](https://allwomenstalk.com/jane-bows-out/) - [paul sculfor girlfriends](https://allwomenstalk.com/jens-hot-new-guy/) - [Rose McGowan Sees Red](https://allwomenstalk.com/rose-mcgowan-sees-red/) - [Pop Nosh: Courtney Love Drops 45lbs!](https://allwomenstalk.com/pop-nosh-courtney-love-drops-45lbs/) ## Site Information - [Main page](https://allwomenstalk.com) - [Contact us](https://allwomenstalk.com/contact.html) - [HTML article](https://allwomenstalk.com/linda-perry-courtney-love-the-review/)
