[Oakland, CA] BetterThanSomething recommended him as a great
perverted show – and he came through. He wore a dirty ragged rabbit mask, a
ratty wig, torn mangled clothes, and a torn mangled body. The clothes came off
by the end of the show to reveal torn mangled underwear. He mouthed his
microphone, and then stuffed it in his underwear. Jumped in the crowd, pushed
people. The music and his performance style is similar to Hunx & His Punx: wooing
the audience in a fey way and engaging in shocking behavior while all the time
singing ridiculously innocent doo wop style songs. As a young girl, I would
have gloried in it. As a less young girl, I felt kind of sad that we watch
artists self-destruct to appease whatever part of our selves wants to
self-destruct. He was backed by a cleaner cut Ramones-esque trio of guitarist,
bassist, and drummer. Don’t see this band for the spectacle, see them because
they are a very good punk n roll, lite garage punk, dirty doo wop band.
