The Radical Faeries present The Kasbah Caberet

Monday, November 29th, 2010

If you missed it last year be sure to get your tickets in advance

The dates: Two nights!! Friday, December 10th and Saturday, December 11th.

A Kasbah Cabaret will be an evening of magic, entertainment, harem boys and girls and sumptuous treats. Put on by The Radical Faeries of Santa Cruz, you can expect the unexpected.

I know from insiders that there will be a full blown re-enactment of the Nativity  and the show will be hosted by Prince Mikalini who is flying in from Dubai!

The show will benefit the Santa Cruz Diversity Center and Radical Faeries.

The place: Live Oak Grange Hall, 1900 17th Avenue, Santa Cruz

Given the intimate venue, there’s a good chance both evenings will sell out… may be a good idea to get tickets sooner rather than later.  [$25 per person, including the tasty morsels, the edible ones that is.]

You Light Up My Life

If you are a devoted fan of Patti Smith (as I am), you must see this. Watching this put chills down my legs. My thighs are moist. My feet are numb.

I love Patti.

BONEY M – DADDY COOL

Thursday, October 14th, 2010

Not sure how I missed this 35 years ago.

Boney M from West Germany was a disco cross-over group created by producer Frank Farian in 1975 and was composed of four West Indian artists working in London.

Despite his success with Boney M, controversy followed the group’s founder, Frank Farian, in what was to later shadow his involvement with Milli Vanilli.

I LOVE THIS..Thanks for sending Frank.

Laisse tomber les filles

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

Probably best described as the French version of “These Boots Are Made For Walking,” France Gall’s “Laisse tomber les filles” was written by Serge Gainsbourg and is one 60s French Pop song that has enjoyed a huge revival.

HOT SWEDISH Tranny Genius

Sunday, June 6th, 2010

Eccentric Geniuses.

Swedish experimental-pop duo, The Knife, have been around for a while but keep a VERY low profile. They avoid the press and publicity in general and rarely do interviews. I stumbled upon them while vacationing in Bangkok and have not seen or heard one peep about them in the U.S.

The Knife is Olof Dreijer and Karin Dreijer Andersson. They are based in Stockholm, Sweden and have made music together since 1999, released on their own label Rabid Records.

I was 16 years old

Some Punk Rockers asked if I would perform at the San Francisco Art Institute…I did what they asked.
