Friday, August 30, 2002 THE HOUSE OF BLUE LEAVESit was purely by accident that i darkened the doorway of THE HOUSE OF BLUES for the third time in four weeks. the only other time (before this month) that i ever went there was to see the great TOM JONES, right after i moved here four years ago. as a rule, i try to stay away from the sunset strip at night because of the desperate singles trade that cruise the boulevard. earlier in the month i saw DOLLY there, last week it was NINA HAGEN, and tonight i saw THE ABSOLUT VODKA REVUE starring THE “LADY” BUNNY. the show also featured RAVEN O, FLAVA, ANGELIQUE ALI aka MARIAH CURRY, EDIE and the EDIE DANCERS and miss lady show stopper herself SADE PENDARVIS. the show was fantastic and it was fun for me to expose TOM to the sick and twisted stylings of BUNNY HICKORY DICKORY DOCK for his very first time. i am very familiar with THE “LADY”. twenty years ago, we were inseparable for a whole year. traipsing around MIDTOWN ATLANTA, getting crunked up on placidills, pot and olde english 800. we were young, gifted and homeless, and loving every minute of it. LESLIE JORDAN was also at the show and he beat my claim to knowing BUN BUN the longest by many years. seems he knew “LIL JOHNNY” way back in CHATTANOOGA TENNESSEE, where they’re both from. seeing LESLIE also gave me the opportunity to tell him how incredibly fabulous his performance in the film SORDID LIVES is. if you have the chance to see it, RUN...DON’T WALK. i don’t foresee another visit to the HOUSE OF BLUES anytime soon, but ya never know... a performance by TANYA TUCKER or PAM TILLIS would surely get me back over there quick, fast and in a hurry ! click here to see LESLIE JORDAN'S filmography . . | Permalink 2009 RuCo, Inc.—All Rights Reserved |
