You might think Courtney Love would guarantee some headlines for the first new Hole album in over a decade by turning the release party into a trainwreck, but the singer looked as respectable as we’ve seen her in ages at the Vegas nightclub Tao this weekend. Sipping on Pellegrino in a tasteful black dress, Love played a brief acoustic set in the wee hours of the night and otherwise kept things low-key with bandmate Miko Larkin. Not that she appreciates you noticing any (potentially lawsuit-inspired) move towards classiness. “Oh stop w the marianne comparisons,” she tweeted in response to a positive review’s references to ex-junkie singer Marianne Faithfull. Hey, if you’re a raspy blonde woman singer in recovery filling your set with Stones covers, you’re asking for it. See more photos of Love in the gallery below.
