 NEW YORK (EMI press release) - A Perfect party! the release party on May 11, for A Perfect Circle's just-releasd DVD Lost in the Bermuda Triangle proved to be an evening of strange and colorful diversions. The moody, atmospheric rockers - A Perfect Circle: Maynard James Keenan (vocals), Billy Howerdel (guitars), Jeordie Osbourne White (bass), James Iha (guitars) and Josh Freese (drums) - and their celeb friends including actor Christopher Meloni ("Oz, "Law and Order") and gal rockers Kittie were at the bash held at NYC's Coral Room (where mermaids glide through a large aquarium above the bar). The outrageous bikini-clad cult film stars the Bikini Bandits - who appear in the video for A Perfect Circle's current Top 5 Modern Rock hit "The Outsider" - reliably drew gasps of delight from partygoers. Guests were treated to a screening of the Lost In The Bermuda Triangle DVD and the bizarre comedic stylings of Jimmy Kimmel Live veteran funny man Neil Hamburger, plus a lounge act performing versions of the band's sprawling rock epics from their platinum debut album and the current nearly platinum Thirteenth StepP album (Virgin).
The DVD features the unedited "The Outsider" video, along with bonus previews for the upcoming Bikini Bandits feature films 'The Golden Rod' and 'Bikini Bandits Save Christmas.' Meanwhile, A Perfect Circle are currently headlining a national arena tour.
