Over the wall

Velvet Revolver smoked the Roxy on Sunday night. Those who scored tix to the last-minute show by the rock ‘n’ roll super group, composed of Stone Temple Pilot’s Scott Weiland and Guns N’ Rose’s Slash, Matt Sorum and Duff McKagan, as well as Wasted Youth’s Dave Kushner, included Christina Applegate and hubby Jonathan Schaech, Jerry Cantrell, Ron Jeremy and the boys from Hoobastank. While treating fans to various STP and GNR numbers, Weiland hopped off the stage and performed atop the wall separating the floor from the seating area.... This just in: Tempest nightclub in WeHo just added Aireoke to its Monday night menu. That’s right, you play air guitar while singing karaoke (in other words, Air Guitar + Karaoke = Aireoke).

Birthday wishes

In the Irish blood, English heart category, the Smiths/Morrissey tribute band the Sweet and Tender Hooligans is performing at the Key Club on May 22, to celebrate Morrissey’s birthday.... Dance music legend Felix da Housecat hits L.A. tonight for a stop at downtown’s Mayan Theater. The Chicago turntablist is headlining the BPM/E3 party along with Junkie XL.... We hear the Golden Gopher is gonna be one swanky spot. The downtown bar, currently being redesigned by Ricki Kline (Swinger’s, the Olive, North), is owned by Cedd Moses (Liquid Kitty/Cobra Lily) and Marc Smith (Three Clubs/North). That trio knows how to create a mood.

Tapas on tap

We hear Hillmont owner Steven Arroyo is transforming the Los Feliz steakhouse into another Cobras and Matadors, his popular Beverly Boulevard tapas lounge.... And don’t miss the new promo, Hook (as in, off the), an all-day frolic at the Concorde club in Hollywood beginning at 4 p.m. each Saturday.... Kudos to the Derby for assembling a Ray Condo memorial show this Saturday. Among the artists scheduled to perform at the tribute to the Canadian crooner: Big Sandy, the Lucky Stars, Jake La Botz, Speedbuggy and Champagne Velvet.
