19 ore 17 lugl 2016 anni - HOLLYWOOD VAMPIRES Johnny Depp LIVE: River Center St Paul, Minnesota

Descrizione:

Johnny and the Hollywood Vampires played live at St Paul River Center, St Paul, Minnesota.

Joe Perry was not playing.

FROM THE CURRENT:
The evening’s itinerary consisted of introductory and acceptance speeches from honorees (including Blair, who mentioned he “always wanted to be Alice Cooper”), along with videos showing Starkey’s mission trips to other countries, where they donate and help fit hearing aids. An hour-long auction-style event raised money for future mission trips, with some attendees pledging to donate upwards of $100,000. The entertainment lineup featured Jay Leno, the Tenors, American Idol winner Trent Harmon, and country singers Maddie and Tae.

Though Depp and Cooper were there for the Hollywood Vampires, their stage banter could have served as its own act, filled with odd humor.

“I went to sleep in Detroit and then I woke up next to a Charlie Brown statue in St. Paul,” Depp said upon taking the stage. He didn’t elaborate much afterwards.
Depp and Cooper also got serious, though. The pair have previously attended Starkey mission trips in Rio de Janeiro, in 2015, and in Lisbon last May.

“It’s a very emotional experience to watch the change on a person's face when they’ve only ever experienced silence,” Depp said.
Later, a video montage featuring dozens of deceased rock stars introduced the Hollywood Vampires, who performed five songs.

“We’re the Hollywood Vampires. We do songs for all of our dead drunk friends,” Cooper said.
The band’s five-song set got some attendees dancing to “Sweet Emotion” and "School’s Out.” Other songs included “Pinball Wizard” and “My Generation.”

After the band took their bows, the lights returned and the event went back into action mode. The guitar that Depp played, along with his and Cooper’s autographs, sold for $120,000.
‘On top of it, he’s gonna teach you three chords,” Cooper said.

“I don’t know three chords,” Depp said with a laugh.

The night continued, with speeches from honorees and promotional Starkey videos about its mission trips. Towards the end of the night, John Mellencamp closed out the night with “Pink Horses,” “Stones in my Passway,” and "Jack and Diane,” which immediately got the audience to sing along.

“If you want a better world, it starts with you,” Mellencamp said.
