Joey Arias Tonight (And Tomorrow Night!)

Posted by on Fri, Mar 1, 2013 at 4:53 PM

This weekend, two nights only, at Re-bar. Read Christopher Frizzelle's Suggest. And more about this show, with Kristian Hoffman, "Lightning Strikes," from FB:

Two veterans of the fertile East Village Art Scene of the 1980's,
Joey Arias and Kristian Hoffman, share the stage for the first time since they both appeared at seminal New York venues like Club 57, Mudd Club and CBGBs.

Borrowed from the title of a Klaus Nomi song, "Lightning Strikes" marks the first collaboration between Arias and Hoffman - both of whom were close friends and collaborators of the late German counter-tenor. Nomi and Arias famously backed up David Bowie on Saturday Night Live in 1979 and the two were close friends up until the time of Nomi's death.
