In any event, the show in question is next Wednesday night at behemoth venue Terminal 5 (in our opinion one of the worst venues in New York City) which finds a headlining performance by the one and only party destroyer.

They also do absolutely fuego-breathing original productions, some of which you will listen to in short [...]

I've got these in .wav right now and you better bet they're gonna be my indie dance crossover slam dunk when I'm DJing! Iggy Pop's voice is not one you forget, or ignore... Speaking of...
