Linda Blair Spins Hits And Heads At Cherry Bar

Linda Blair, the child star of The Exorcist, took over the turntable at Melbourne’s Cherry Bar nightclub on Friday night to spin hits and heads.

Blair opened her playlist with INXS’ ‘Devil Inside’ and ended with the equally appropriate Blue Oyster Cult classic ‘Don’t Fear The Reaper’.

Linda Blair is in Australia to promote the 40th anniversary of ‘The Exorcist’. Blair was 15-years old when she played the possessed Regan McNeil in the 1973 horror film.

Linda Blair’s Cherry Bar playlist was:

INXS – Devil Inside
The Rolling Stones – Let’s Spend The Night Together
Led Zeppelin – Whole Lotta Love
Stevie Nicks – Edge of Seventeen
Aerosmith – Train kept A Rollin
Jimi Hendrix – Foxey Lady
Blue Oyster Cult – Don’t Fear The Reaper
