For the Guys Only- If you could do a drag Stevie performance - Page 2

I would make a terrible drag queen, so I would have to do RAL coke version - with the demon eye liner, torn shawls & a dove stuck in my hair.

When I was 18, I did Stevie, twice...

One at amature night: "Talk to Me" was my weapon of choice. I found a great replica of the black dress from the video. I mastered all the balck dress choreography in high platforms. Of course when you take out all the other elements of the video, the number ended up being me walking up and down the stage with gesticulating hands. Horrible!

They asked me back for a benefit, so I did GDW in the same outfit with a gold lame shawl. It actually was not bad...

NEVER AGAIN!!!

I will post as the hag of this thread, if that's OK with you boys

.

I think you guys definitely have to go with flamboyant mid-late 80's Stevie. Big hair, big clothes, big hate, big tits

, big everything! Songs I'd like to watch you do:

Sister Honey
I Can't Wait
Juliet (must be the ribbons & bows, lol)
Sable on Blonde
Wild Heart

I actually have (and used) that square Sennheiser mike in my band, for inspiration of course!

As for drag..... drag is a drag on me. I'm way too tall and I don't have feminine features, so it would never work. Instead of drag and lip sync, I would just be me and do "Violet and Blue" or "Sisters of the Moon" live.

But that just wouldn't be as fun as seeing chest hair peeking out from a bustier as you twirl, darling.

What he said!

However my roommate tells me I do a pretty good 'Seven Wonders' while in the shower... (and no, he's not in there with me!

Yeah, right......

Only one song would fit: "Destiny Rules."

Um...I disagree about your features. Twinkling blue eyes, a delicate, refined bone structure....

If I was a girl, and I looked like you, I think I'd be veeeeery cute!!!! Wait, I am a girl. But you see what I mean.

You are tall, though, but still, I think the face is golden!

LIAR!

I could never do drag. The mere thought of it makes me wince. Horrid.

I would definitely do some Stevie songs live though and totally rock them. Rhiannon, rosebud version perhaps?

That sounds like a great date. If you can sing the Petty part I will officially set aside hours for worship.
Peace.
Out.
