Can it be? Why, yes it can… announcing the LIVE debut of YouTube weirdo, Tonetta!

Yes, this Friday at Show Cave here in Los Angeles, the pervy, thong-wearing purveyor of his own special flavor of nasty ass R&B will be exhibiting his art and video work and doing a special live performance in celebration of his new album 777 Vol. II. So what if he looks like he’s got someone chained up in his basement, Tonetta knows how to party.

Show Cave, 3501 Eagle Rock Blvd , Los Angeles, CA.

Below, Tonetta wants to be your “drain” if you know what I mean and I think you do:
 

 
Thank you, Jason Louv!

My friend Shaun Frenté is screening the Japanese classic “Funeral Parade of Roses” this Wednesday at Show Cave in LA—now the greatest venue in the city!

Funeral Parade of Roses (Bara no soretsu)
Black and White. 1969. Japan. 105 minutes.
Directed by Toshio Matsumoto

Unequivocally the best Japanese 60s avant-pop tranny tragedy I’ve seen, Funeral Parade of Roses is a must-see time capsule (I only wish the future Thetans who sift through my ashes hope this is what the 20th century is all about). Part self-conscious art film, part exploitation film, and part gonzo documentary on Tokyo’s underground scene – though where the zones overlap is up for grabs. Even on DVD, the black and white dazzles, as one quotable image supplants another. If you’re into the whole Asian catholic schoolgirl ladyboy thing, and who isn’t anymore, this is the jackpot.

Pithy introduction and discussion following the screening – this is part one in our run of “New Waves” around the world.

Hazel Hill, the designer of Thee Psychick Bible and one of the masterminds of Show Cave, showed this video to an awe-struck crowd this weekend at her art space. Jaws dropped.
