SOME THING Solid at The Stud Sold Solid Gold

Solid Gold. Solid. SOLID SOME THING boogied into the night with disco inspired numbers and avant-garde interpretations of the word SOLID. I really didn’t understand the night or my assignment as I joined Opalteen on stage for our version of SOLID by Ashford and Simpson. It was a very special moment for me in my life. It was a lot of fun ;]

For a show about disco there sure were a lot of unusual non-disco songs.

A lot of songs featuring poop.

Solid Poop. Solid. And SOLID SOME THING pooped all over the stage… or it could have been chocolate. It’s difficult to judge.

¡SOME THING Doble Quinceañera!

Faux King Awesome — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 02:37:49 +0000

Ambrosia Salad hauled her lettucey house up to The Stud for a special SOME THING with Dressing to celebrate and fundraise for her Doble Quinceañera on 14 de November. For the non-Spanish-speakers that means your 30th birthday, kinda.

I really loved every number that evening. Each was very entertaining, even Primadonna Reed, who had me laughing so hard I could barely hold the camera steady. Highlights were lips syncing in Spanish (especially Stanley Frank Sensation’s spot on telenovela sync, and Glamamore’s Spanish hog reina), Oxana Olsen and Tess Tickle’s American Gladiator fight, and Vivvy Anne Forevermore and Elijah MIneli’s amazing, ripped right from YouTube, rendition of the Olsen Twins’ “Gimme Pizza.” Priceless.

Enjoy the videos below and stay tuned for more info on Ambrosia’s Doble Quinceañera.

SOME THING Celebrates Mr. David’s Birthday

Faux King Awesome — Sat, 16 Oct 2010 02:06:08 +0000

I can’t remember the first time I met Mr. David, and it’s prolly because he was dressed like Glamamore at the time. He seems to have always been there, looking out, watching everyone’s first steps, encouraging more and more from you. Now I may not remember the first time I met him, but I won’t forget the first time he burned me (on purpose) with his cigarette. And although I fretted, and scowled, and then blistered a tiny bit, I knew that it was some sort of initiation, a tough love, or perhaps I was just standing too close. I of course got over it, and now I can gaze upon the tiniest of scars on my wrist with affection. It’s fucked up, but it’s true. I love you granny.

I’ve always seen David as a drag mentor. He knows about the outfits, the makeup, the wigs, the moves, the lip sync, the style, the music, the look. He can talk to all of this; it’s really amazing to have so much wrapped up into one person. So the drag wonders at SOME THING celebrated Mr. David’s birthday with a special night of performances from some of his nearest and dearest, and newest friends.

Please check out performances below from Hoku Mama Swamp, Putanesca, Vivvy Anne Forevermore, Miss Rahni, Fauxnique, Suppositori Spelling Nikki Starr and more.

SOME THING Gets Classy

Faux King Awesome — Tue, 05 Oct 2010 06:20:04 +0000

I rolled up into The Stud last Friday with a new bedazzled ZARA t-shirt that i swear my closet ate a month ago. The tags were still on it when I found it. I was sporting a giant can of Tecate in a reused Walgreen’s paper bag, soaked from the PBR i poured into it that I got from from the bar. I looked sleazy and offered everyone fruity mentos as I passed through the club.

“It’s SOME THING with Class,” I told them as I took a chug and popped a mento into their hands. “I didn’t plan to be this classy for the show.” I’m just always this classy.

Amazing performances from Martha The Failed Actress, Glamamore, Katya Smirnoff-Skyy, Mercedes Munro, Honey Mahogany, Kalisto, Turleen, Margaret Cholo, Elijah Minelli and April Mae Joon.

I got video below.

SOME THING EVIL!

Faux King Awesome — Wed, 26 May 2010 05:40:22 +0000

So Joshua Grannell (aka Peaches Christ) made this movie called All About Evil, and the night before the world premier at the Castro Theater she teamed up with my drag sister Vivvy Anne Forevermore and my drag granny, Glamamore to help celebrate this instant cult classic horror film with a wonderful drag show at SOME THING at the Stud. The film is fucking great. I may be biased (I’m an extra seated next to Heklina during the grande finale), but I’m also a very skeptical and cruelly judgmental movie-goer, and I have to tell you that being on the set, getting to know everyone involved from actors to extras from crew to producers, I could, with confidence, say that this movie was going to be gaymazing! And it is.

Peaches Christ gives good grindhouse with evil twins Jade and Nikita Ramsay

I got a first look at it when Joshua screened a cast and crew show late last year at the Victoria Theater. It was great to see all the folks from the set back in the theater where we filmed. And All About Evil was awesome! Experiencing the movie again this month at The Castro with so many fresh eyes watching it for the first time was a raging hoot! We all laughed so hard, people heckled, I even discovered new things to laugh at this time around. That is a great sign. Any good cult movie gets funnier the more times you see it because you recognize more things and find different levels of humor in some things than you did before. Plus the shared experience cannot be beat. You have to experience this at the cinema. And Peaches Christ is taking this movie on tour all over the US complete with a pre-show dragstravaganza that is sure to give you more bang for your movie buck. Check out this link to see if it’s going to come to your hometown. Not coming to a theater near you? Then I would suggest starting a Facebook page to demand it come. Many cities like my hometown of Detroit did just that. We gotta show booked within days!

The SOME THING EVIL show was a riot. Lots of fake blood, horror movie references, torture and laughs. Here’s some pics:
