“a monumental and surreal career highlight”
Speaking about his performance atthe Hoover Dam, Billy Idol had this to say.
“Our show at Hoover Dam was a monumental and surreal career highlight,” he said.
The singer also added, “I’m excited to get State Line out into the world. With this film we set out to highlight the continued importance of one of the most inspiring infrastructural achievements of the 20th Century, while also bringing the power of rock n roll to a stunning, magical location. I think we more than succeeded on both accounts”.
The film itself explores the history and significance of the Hoover Dam. It also features performances of two iconic Idol hits.
Other items on the menu also include an acoustic duo set on the roof of the powerhouse at the foot of Hoover Dam straddling the Colorado River, directly on the Nevada/Arizona state line.
A full band concert at sunset with special guests that electrified and illuminated the surrounding Black Canyon is also included.
