CRUISE DIRECTOR ALERT: Bouncin’ back from the birthday

Hey everyone!

Been swimmin’ around in a lot of champagne and a lot of love this past week, and really wanted to thank all of you so much for the embarrassingly excessive birthday wishes and bubbly and gifts and rallying. It’s so nice to get so many warm fuzzies at my advanced age!

Haven’t been seen on the big gay dance circuit since (gasp!) Independence Day, so I’m ready to pounce this weekend. Here’s what’s coming up:

Saturday, July 21:

Adonis with DJ Escape

10pm - late

$15 before 11pm, $20 after

Club NV

525 Howard @ 1st

Also Saturday:

So much more than just the typical club night, Non-Stop Bhangra is a collective vision that has taken the SF dance scene by storm, featuring live dhol (drum) players, dance performances, dance lessons and DJs dedicated to sharing the art of Bhangra.

9pm – 2am

10 advance, $15 door

Also wanted to mention something that keeps popping up on the lips of all SF’s finest cabaret queens, cuz it’s a limited engagement and people keep telling me things like “Run, do not walk, to get your tickets!”:

Kiki & Herb

July 13–29

A.C.T. - 415 Geary St.
Kiki (Justin Bond) is a brash, boozy septuagenarian chanteuse. She's seen it all and done it all, just don't expect her to remember it all. On stage with her stalwart accompanist and only living friend Herb (Kenny Mellman), Kiki lets rip with political rants, searing social commentary and confessions about their own highs and lows. Together they've self-medicated their way through numerous regimes, fads and fascists, presidencies, pregnancies and personal challenges that would send most people into rehab or retirement, but not Kiki & Herb. They don't quit!
