Corey Feldman’s Back at the Whisky: Feldman’s back, baby! What does that mean though? Will he have his band of Angels with him? It’s not billed that way. No, this is apparently all about his friendship with Corey Haim, and the number 222. 

“I’m not part of the Clear Channel world,” Feldman told us back in 2017. “I’m not part of the big corporation world, I’m not in the big major-label world, which I’ve stayed away from intentionally for all these years. I think the fact that I’m beating them at their own game probably pisses a few people off.”

He told us of his attempts at a singing career when he was a child actor: “As I got older and tried to actually have a singing career, kind of professionally, I lost the confidence because I didn’t have a good upbringing,” he said. “I didn’t have a lot of support from my parents. When I saw Michael Jackson do ‘Billie Jean,’ I went, ‘Oh, I can do that,’ and I did it. That became a popular party trick. Every time I would show up (at a party), somebody would throw me a fedora. That’s where I decided, OK, what if I create a real band that makes real music where it’s not about dancing? Create a theater for the mind. That’s where the idea of Truth Movement came from. I wanted to create something that tells a story, is very genuine and organic, and doesn’t feel contrived. Creating a movement of telling the truth.”

COVID has kept Corey away from us, but he’s back at the Whisky and honestly, who the fuck knows what to expect?

Corey Feldman’s Back at the Whisky: The event takes place at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, February 22 at the Whisky A Go Go.
