 Punk Rock BBQ for Pris
Ego’s, December 20th
Texas Rollergirls’ own badass Pris (Chelsea Taylor) of
the Hotrod Honeys suffered a holiday tragedy when her
house caught fire and burned down. Pris and her mom
lost most of their personal belongings in the fire.
The big-hearted folks at Ego’s and some kick-ass bands
threw a punk rock BBQ to help Pris and her mom get back
on their feet in time to enjoy the rest of the holidays.
Amber Violand, Seaflea, The Dickens, Pink Swords and
The Rockland Eagles gave it up for the love of Pris.
The Rollergirls moshed in rolling chairs while the Rockland
Eagle cheerleader held up a “Pris.” sign. Steve Austin
was on drums.
Pris’ own father is a noted musician so it was nice to
see all the musicians donating their merch sales. Tattoo
Artists donated their goods and Rolletta Lynn donated
100 novelty buttons to a raffle.
Next time you see Pris, buy her a drink! She’s a great
lady, and I know she appreciated every single person
there. Take care of each other during the holidays because
some times the only thing you have is the love of the
people around you.
Minus the unfortunate circumstances, this was more fun
than a barrel of monkeys. Check out future punk rock
BBQs at Ego’s. If you want to make a donation to Pris
and her mom, visit http://www.txrollergirls.com/.
