I post this announcement for the upcoming rare show in SF, because.... they do Joni Mitchell song(s) as part of their act. New Yorkers will know them well...
[10-25] Kiki and Herb at the Great American Music Hall Kiki & Herb, bringing good old fashioned New York camp cabaret to The Great American Music Hall for one night only! The bizarre duo was described by the Village Voice as "watching a train derail in front of you," and have been likened to '70s phenoms Sonny & Cher, Captain & Tenille and Donny & Marie. Don't expect an evening of Cole Porter or anything as trite as a send-up of Liza Minnelli. But you can expect an elegant performance from this bizarre American drag duo. In the guise of a boozy over-the-hill drag queen, gender illusionist/chanteuse Kiki (Justin Bond) and cohort Herb (Kenny Mellman) perform songs from Belle and Sebastian to Joni Mitchell and Meat Loaf. Picture Kiki as part Helen Gurley Brown, part Janis Joplin -- only then will you have an idea of what you're in for. "The most hilariously disturbing show you'll see." NY Times "The glitterati's favorite dysfunctional, drink-swilling downtown nightclub act." Harper's Bazaar "Demented...deranged...scary...mesmerizing." Variety "Scathingly brilliant!"
