Paris Black is
Billy Idol

You won't find a more realistic tribute to an iconic artist out there today.

Billy Idol began as a true 'punk' artist but soon targeted the commercial fringes of the genre. Always the randy, self-aggrandizing showman, his shtick always carried a bit of an edge. Mostly punk without politics, but always dangerous and over the top.

Rebel Yell

   
Rebel Yell have risen to do tribute to an artist who is as familiar today as he was 20 years ago.

Gutsy, raw and extremely visual, Rebel Yell offer the best of Billy Idol material in rapid succession. "Dancing With Myself," "Ready Steady Go," "White Wedding," "Scream" and an pounding encore of "Mony, Mony."
