Back in May, Courtney Love briefly teased the possibility of a Hole reunion, telling The Guardian “We are definitely talking about it.”
Now, it appears as though those talks have materialised into something more concrete, with Love sharing a since-deleted Instagram post in which she, along with bassist Melissa Auf der Maur, drummer Patty Schemel and guitarist Eric Erlandson, can be seen on stage together.
Love captioned the photo “Whose rusty af? Ladies !!!” and added the hashtags #hole, #rehearsal, #tonight and #hollywood. As Uproxx points out, she responded to a comment with “ah! We r so rusty. Just finding our way through songs n songs we like n riffs seeing what’s what! It’s cool. Af nice to be together.”
It’s unclear what, if anything, will come from the rehearsal sessions, but Love commented two black heart emojis in response to a fan asking if there were plans for any shows.
Hole officially broke up back in 2002, and despite persistent rumours, have only ever briefly reformed in 2012 to perform a brief set following a screening of Schemel’s documentary Hit So Hard.
