For anyone who was curious about the concert: yes, it was kickin’. I even jumped up and down to the beat–but of couse, I kinda had to if I wanted to see over the fat, fat girl who decided to climb up on the go-go box directly in front of me. (I was angry at first, but several bourbon-and-waters later, I mellowed.)
Here are a couple of pics, courtesy of my friend, Robert:
Nina Hagen performing on her 52nd birthday.
Richard, strangely oblivious to Cutie McSweetcheeks, the go-go boy.
(Who, as fate would have it, is a friend of the boyfriend.)
Not pictured: shots from the insane wedding reception held at the club the following night, featuring Japanese anime/punk icons Peelander-Z in a free concert to honor the newlyweds. Also not pictured: mom and dad of the bride rocking out onstage at same.
