Mardi Gras is coming to NYC next Tuesday at the Roxy and we’re wetting our pants with excitement. Our pals over at Spin Cycle with help from LIFEbeat are producing a show that will feature over 75 go-go boys. 75? Um, we’re there.
If that’s not enough Michael Lucas, Robin Byrd, and Reichen Lehmkuhl will all be on hand. The party is benefiting the NO/AIDS Task Force, which was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina.
Oh and get this. MC Hammer is performing live. Yes, the MC Hammer performing live at the Roxy! This is going to be one surreal evening. We just downloaded “You Can’t Touch This” in anticipation.
