Tuesday, December 02, 2008 Liza @ The Palace monday night, i picked Lahoma up at LAX and headed directly to Allee Willis' house, where she was having a shindig for the touring cast of The Color Purple. there was fried catfish, greens and peach cobbler. we walked in just as Jenifer Lewis was re-enacting the Helen Lawson - ladies room scene from "Valley of the Dolls". then we tipped over to Here Bar for the drag talent show, and later to The Palms for their David Lynch inspired drag show. i hadn't gone out in ages, so it was fun to show my friend the twisted subversion Hollywood has to offer, without the "cool" factor that ruins Manhattan nightlife. tuesday night, we went country line dancing, and then we "made it rain" for the pole dancers at Jumbo's. by 11pm, we were at Rage for The Dreamgirls Revue, where they were performing a Male Drag Special that prompted Lahoma to say "there should be a Proposition 9 on the ballot which denies Drag Queens the right to perform in Male Drag". i'd vote for that. wednesday night we watched Rosie Live, but turned it off after 20 minutes. was it just me or did Liza sound like Jimmy Durante? it'll be another 20 years before anyone tries to do a tv variety show again. thursday night, we drove to The Valley for the drag show at Cobra. gorgeous, twisted, fabulous and wrong. they had a Thanksgiving buffet that was free for all the Tranny Chasers. Lahoma flew back to NYC friday night, but we still managed to do some hiking, shopping and sightseeing during her short visit. it was also good for me to break my "all work - no play" routine for a little taste.
