Kiki & Herb at A.C.T. - 7/13 - 29

I've read about these guys, looks like a great show, and tix are discounted on Goldstar. The Show starts 7/13 and goes through 7/29 at A.C.T.

Here's a little write up on the show:

The outrageous cabaret duo is bringing their hilariously naughty act to A.C.T. in a three-week summertime run. Get ready!

Kiki & Herb: Alive From Broadway finds the acclaimed duo back in San Francisco displaying their musical prowess with reinventions of songs by artists ranging from The Cure and Dan Fogelberg to the Wu-Tang Clan, the Scissor Sisters, Radiohead and Bob Merrill. 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!

Kiki & Herb: Alive From Broadway is the perfect introduction to an act The New York Times called "grand, vivacious and sordid." Join the duo in their latest installment of musical madness.

Let me know if you're interested in joining me.

Audium - any Friday or Saturday night

I think this sounds really cool, check it out....

"a dark and eerie sound labyrinth leads you into a small performance space where 169 speakers are suspended from the ceiling, and hidden behind sloping walls, under chairs, and beneath a floating floor. you sit in total darkness and are bathed in pure, moving "sound sculptures." ocean waves. children frolicking. you're experiencing audium. fifteen bucks will get you this brain massage inside their 49-seat theatre. consider it a secret destination (a building within a building, really) that's entirely space-aged and retro. performances are a combo of art and technology. no cimema. no live concert. just sound. bouncing from structure to structure. not your typical night out, no doubt. (can you say close encounters of the third kind? yes. and you should.)"




audium tickets:
$15 live performances starts at 8:30 p.m. most fridays and saturdays
box office opens at 8 p.m.
1616 bush street at franklin
415.771.1616

Martin Amis in Conversation - Wednesday, January 24th

I have to admit I've never read any of Martin Amis's books, but thought it would be interesting to see him speak. Maybe it will even inspire me to read something of his!

He's speaking at the JCC in SF on Wednesday, January 24th and Goldstar has tix for $5. I know they'll sell out fast at such a great price so I went ahead and got 2 tickets. Whoever RSVP's first gets to go with me. If you miss that go ahead and get tix yourself at Goldstar or from the JCC if Goldstar is sold out.
