SMUT
is
a provocative new weekly series that presents explicit
art side by side with intellectual discourse.
This
week at SMUT:
THE
LIPSTICK LOVELIES in "Hotel Femme Fatale"
Welcome
to the Hotel Femme Fatale, a lush paradise where music
fills the air, seduction lingers through every corridor,
and The Lipstick Lovelies eagerly await your arrival,
ready to entice and delight you.
During
your stay, be sure to tip the bellboy for his assistance,
sample some sensual treats concocted by the house chef,
summon hotel security for some late night comfort, and
lose your inhibitions with the wickedly fun madame.
Described
as a feast for the eyes and boost to the libido, Hotel
brings to life a cast of bordello staff and patrons, played
by The Lipstick Lovelies and their favorite bad
boys, through song, dance, camp and video. Since their
creation in 2003, the Lipstick Lovelies have been
"camping it up on the Hudson" at the Hudson River Theater
(New York Times) and throughout the Capital District,
earning them the title of "bombshell squad" (Metroland
Magazine).
With
their bawdy tunes, comedic quips, gorgeous costumes, and
sexy stripping, the Lovelies never cease to keep
the class in their acts or their tongues firmly planted
in cheek.

LUMINESCENT
ORCHESTRII + UNCLE EARL + WIYOS + DOC MARSHALLS
 Luminescent
Orchestrii: Romanian gypsy
melodies, punk frenzy, salty tangos, hard rocking klezmer,
haunting Balkan harmony, hip-hop beats and Appalachian
fiddle, all eaten and spit out by three violins, resophonic
guitar, bullhorn harmonica and guitarron. www.lumii.org
 Uncle
Earl isn't your run-of-the-mill band. First of all,
they're all female. But these aren't the Spice Girls.
Think Agent Scully meets Janeane Garofalo in Mayberry,
with a shot of whiskey. Uncle
Earl is literally a who's who of young women in old-time
music, and wherever they go they're likely to raise
a ruckus. www.uncleearl.net
 Wiyos:
A trio comprised of three-part vocals, washboard/harmonica/kazoo,
guitar, and upright bass. The WIYOS transport listeners
back to a time before TV and mass-media were the main
sources of entertainment, to the days when music could
be heard on live radio and at community dances, juke
joints and house parties. The band creates an interactive
and visual show in the tradition of performers like
Fats Waller, Spike Jones and Uncle Dave Macon. They
are passionate about infusing old-time American music
with new blood; carrying this rich musical heritage
into the 21st century and having a darn good time doing
it.
The
Doc Marshalls:
With influences ranging from traditionalists such as
Buck Owens and Johnny Cash, to innovators like Gram
Parsons and Dwight Yoakam, this New York City quintet
delivers an honest, unflinching honky tonk sound. "This
Brooklyn-based Zydeco outfit has somehow escaped my
radar for too long. If this don't get your Cajun blood
boiling and a dancin', ya just ain't got no heart. Go
out and see these guys and save the trip to the Big
Easy." -The Village Voice

A
Week of Kindness
sketch comedy
A
Week of Kindness until recently was a bad handball team,
with a bad handball team name, who had never won a handball
game. They began to dabble in sketch comedy when a grizzled
kinesiologist with insect strength told them that sketch
comedy is good cross-training for handball. And the rest
is history.

Don't Destroy
A
Benefit for Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn
with The Spunk Lads and DJ Motormouth
The
Spunk Lads are London's legendary punk rockers. Incendiary
live performers noted in both the annals of rock and police
blotters across three continents, the Spunk Lads have
called Brooklyn home since 2001. "We saw first hand
what happened in London when the GLC was taken out by
Thatcher," says lead singer Nick Knickers. "When
government stops working for the regular yobbos, we have
to work twice as hard to snatch it back."
Before
and after the Spunk Lads is DJ Motormouth, spinning
a molotov cocktail of hard-edged dance and rock mixes
that has packed clubs in Brooklyn and Manhattan.
Develop-Don't
Destroy Brooklyn leads a broad-based community coalition
fighting for development that will unite our communities
instead of dividing and destroying them. DDDB's fight
is costly -- legal teams, outreach, mailings, events,
political lobbying. Tonight's event will help raise much-needed
funds for our struggle. (www.dddb.net
