hooray for cabaret

went and saw dresden dolls last monday, who were fairly awesome.. and as an added bonus there was a freak show of support acts.. sword swallowers, cheesy burlesque dancers, a very overdramatic puppet show, body painting cyborgs, a very gay fishnet clad MC and the spunkiest accordian player on the planet.. if you EVER get the chance to see JASON WEBLEY.. DO IT.. he will have you singing about ardvarks, twirling around in the crowd to get dizzy if you're not drunk enough.. the guy is a genius. a very very hot sexy genius.. "hey ya" singalong on the accordion.. i shit you not.. the actual support band "the red paintings" were pretty typical goth industro rock, the lead singer did "mad world" with the piano girl from the dolls as an encore, which was really fucking awesome.. the dolls themselves were FAIRLY awesome.. they didn't really blow my mind like hot accordion dude but they were still very watchable and the drumming rocked as did the lyrics.. and it fucken beats me how she can POUND those chords out so hard while singing like a wounded child but that's raw genius for you.. 9 out of 10.. accordion guy.. 13 out of 10
