Midnight mashup show by Miss Nix

Launched in 2003, Bootie was the first club night in the United States dedicated solely to the burgeoning artform of the bootleg mashup -- and is now the biggest mashup event in the world, with monthly parties in seven cities on two continents. Mixing and matching every conceivable musical genre, era, and style into one big dance party where everyone feels welcome, Bootie provides the soundtrack for the A.D.D. generation -- with free mashup CDs given away like candy!

Resident DJs Adrian, the Mysterious D, and Party Ben keep your brain guessing and body dancing with creative song combinations, celebrating -- and satirizing -- the many different forms of music. Guest mashup DJs from around the world are featured, and the infamous midnight mashup show showcases popular local drag and burlesque performers.

Flying back tonight from their European tour, A Plus D - aka DJs Adrian & the Mysterious D -- return to the club they founded, with a special DJ set at midnight. Bootie house band Smash-Up Derby will hit the stage at 11 pm with a set of live rock mashups. In the upstairs room, party like it's Friday night at The Stud back in 2004 -- it's the return of club Guilty, with guest DJs Suppositori Spelling and Mr. Anthony. And for the midnight mashup show, Miss Nix reenacts the title song from the movie "Xanadu."

More details TBA...

In late 1987, artist/performer Groovie Mann and musician Buzz McCoy met one night in a dark and seedy Chicago bar. Discovering their common love for tabloid newspaper tales of sex and Satan, kitschy horror flicks, and trashy exploitation films, and boys started conjuring up the plot for their own B movie to be called My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult. Yet without much experience and limited access to video equipment, the duo scratched their dreams of celluloid, but decided to transmute the project~s accompanying soundtrack into a live band scenario. To accompany their vision, they also formed a trio of bodacious and sultry back-up singers/dancers known collectively as The Bomb Gang Girlz, and later that year the group hit the road!

In continuation of their 20th Anniversary celebration, this show will be reminiscent of the infamous "1989 Inferno Xpress Tour". It will feature many songs from the Wax Trax years: including hits like "Kooler Than Jesus", "A Daisy Chain 4 Satan", "The Days Of Swine & Roses", "The Devil Does Drugs", and, of course "Cuz It's Hot"!
