That's right, we're keeping it in SoMa again. You can go to Hi Tops on Saturday.
Way back before Bjork b-sides and Detroit trance disco acid tribal house whatever, the odiferous altera queers loved cheap eyeliner and listening to musicians who wore lots of black. Enter Depeche Mode and the marvellous Siouxsie Sioux. Tonight, Heklina will pit the two noted Goth rock against each other together for Trannyshack: Depeche Mode Vs. Siouxsie Sioux.
Who's better? Siouxsie, obviously. Have you listened to Depeche Mode? Who knows. But the following drag stars might help you decide:
Heklina
House of Glitter
Jason El D
Fauxnique
Raya Light
Lady Bear
U-Phoria
Suppositori Spaz Spelling
Cookie Dough
Nikki Sixx Mile
The Dark Dolls (Dark Room)
Rice Rockettes
...and more!
If you live in San Francisco and have never been to Trannyshack, you should a) punch yourself in the face, and b) make plans to head to DNA Lounge (375 Eleventh Street) this FRIDAY. Doors open at 9:30pm, show starts at 11pm. ($15, advance tickets here.)
