Faster Pussycat brought their sleaze Glam Rock in true metal style kicking off the 90-minute set a little after midnight with \u201cCathouse.\u201d Taime Downe dressed in his black leather pants and leather cap puffed on his cigarette, as the band unleashed their pure raw punk sound. Taime commented that the band has been coming to Vegas since 1986. One thing was for sure; Faster Pussycat turned back the clock and turned the Vegas hotspot into the Glam Rock scene of Hollywood via 1986 for the entire set.<\/p>\n<p>The music of Faster Pussycat has a definite Ramones meets New York Dolls meets LA Guns vibe with huge punk rock influences. Guitarist Ace Von Johnson turned up the volume with his sledgehammer guitar riffs. Taime Downe spit out the hardcore lyrics to \u201cSex Drugs, and Rock \u2018n\u2019 Roll.&#8221; The most heartfelt and only toned down moment occurred when Taime sat down on the amp in front of the audience and sang for \u201cHouse Of Pain.\u201d Taime took a moment to say be nice to all your friends and family because when they are gone you never see them again. It was a pretty intense moment as fans sang along to the chorus. It was also great hearing \u201880s anthem \u201cBathroom Wall.\u201d That song is so catchy.<\/p>\n<p>Bassist Danny Nordahl sang on the song \u201cPretty Fucked Up.\u201d Faster Pussycat ended the show with \u201cShut Up And Fuck.\u201d  <\/p>\n<p>Set List:<br \/>\nCat House<br \/>\nSlip Of The Tongue<br \/>\nNumber 1 With A Bullet<br \/>\nSex Drugs And Rock \u2018n\u2019 Roll<br \/>\nPretty Ugly<br \/>\nHouse Of Pain<br \/>\nPoison Ivy<br \/>\nPretty Fucked Up<br \/>\nShut Up And Fuck<br \/>\nEncore<br \/>\nBabylon<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">by Deb Rao &#8211; Senior Columnist &#8212; November 30, 2013 at Vampd in Las Vegas, NV. &#8212; What better way to celebrate Thanksgiving weekend than enjoying some Glam Rock with Faster Pussycat at Vampd?
