PIPER VINCENT....
BLOODRUSH..... 2001 SHOW REVIEW
The stadium became darkened... the immense
stage was filled with what appeared to be a blueblack eerie smoke or
fog.... the massive theatre screen at the back of the stage was lit up
with a blank white
canvas.... spotlights from behind..... everything being played out in
slow motion... a small thin silhouette of a finely shaped woman appeared
rising slowly from beneath.. on a circular stage... as the fog
like smoke thickened.... a roar of African like drums began to beat a
constant pounding ...back
up singers shouted out in an almost angelic harmony of ''BANG BANG
BANG'' from the back of the stadium and from the sides of the
stadium and from above the stadium comes a shrill of distant thunder and
lightening... and a sound of pouring rushing rain... a howling wind
blowing over the entire crowd seems to somehow direct its path toward
the silhouette... the smoke clears the silhouette
is standing with arms raised in the air in a victory
like stance the silhouette of her waist length hair.... flying on
the wings of the wind uncontrollably... and frantic... the silhouette
drops suddenly to the floor..... a bewildering hush and silence comes
over the musicians and stage and fills the air..... there is a gasp heard
from among the crowd then... appearing on the giant theater screen is
film of GENE VINCENT appearing in a black leather suit holding on to a
microphone stand he starts
singing '''well ...be bop a lula'''... all of a sudden the silhouette on
the floor rises and a spotlight shines on the silhouette... IT'S
PIPER .!!!. and she and Gene together sing BE BOP A LULA...the fans go
crazy.......as dramatic as any broadway show PIPER VINCENT'S BLOODRUSH
show grabs you from
the very beginning and DOESN'T LET GO !!!!!!
As a phenomenon her performance generates
an EMOTIONAL ROLLER COASTER RIDE... you laugh, you cry and your
senses reach new heights even if you don't know who GENE VINCENT is
you can't sit through this performance without becoming a lifetime fan
of him and his young sister PIPER VINCENT truly a combination of soft
femininity yet raw soul stirring captivity... she's just great!!!
there is no other words ...she 's just great !!!!
Piper always ends her show by tossing the
black scarf into the audience (that she keeps tied around her knee
during her whole performance) the black scarf is symbolic to show
that she is performing and dancing in the way that gene
could have performed and danced had he not had a broken
leg in other words piper is giving to the fans a
finish to every one of the live GENE VINCENT SHOWS that his fans
have ever seen him do all over the world WHEN HE WAS ALIVE the black
scarfs have become collectors items. Each scarf is dated ...numbered and
signed by piper and coded for a
specific live show that gene did while he was alive.

Some comments from piper's fans
exiting her show:
"... when piper walks on to the
stage she doesn't just walk onto the stage but she walks into your life,
she kinda takes you over, you just can't seem to get her out of your
mind or somthin' wierd like that. That hasn't happened to rock and
roll fans since the BEATLES!"
"... for a girl she really has that
Jerry Lee Lewis and that Elvis thing down"
