Ah, Kiki and Herb... I remember when I could see them for the price of a cocktail at the gone-but-still-loved Eichelberger's. Thems were the days.
Yay! Finally gay stuff on the SFist. Real gay stuff.
But the straight indie hipsters need to see Kiki and Herb too! They need to have their minds blown by a postmodern cabaret act that covers the Mountain Goats, Public Enemy, Momus, and Bonnie Tyler!
Plus it's previews this week and extra-cheap!
