FROM: MITCH SCHNEIDER/MARCEE RONDAN/LATHUM NELSON
THE PLACE TO BE: Chris Rock, David Spade, Lorraine Bracco ("The Sopranos"), Anthony Kiedis (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Fieldy (Korn), Rick James, Elijah Blue (Deadsy), Don Was and Andrew Dice Clay were on hand when BILLY IDOL made his triumphant return to Los Angeles. IDOL performed classics from his GREATEST HITS collection (Chrysalis/EMI)--which remains charted for 23 consecutive weeks on the Billboard pop albums chart--alongside new material ("Walk The Monster," "Fire Song") at three hot & sweaty sold-out shows at the Roxy (September 13, 14 and 15). Traffic on Sunset Blvd. slowed down outside the Roxy as onlookers took time to savor the club's brazen marquee which read: "Billy F&%*in Idol!"
