SOME THING

Better than: Being gored to death by a pack of zombies.
San Francisco has a rich history of drag performance. Look back, and the founding of organizations like the International Imperial Court System, troupes like The Cockettes, and the international popularity of artists like Sylvester pop out of our city's cultural heritage like gleaming beacons to San Francisco's enduring play with the norms of American society. Yet while those things happened years ago, drag in San Francisco still seems as though it hasn't lost any of its vibrant cutting edge. One bar that's consistently stood at the fore is The Stud. The original location for local drag institution Trannyshack, the bar now plays host to the weekly avant-garde antics of SOME THING on Fridays. Run by VivvyAnne Forevermore, Glamamore, and down-E, the event celebrated its second anniversary last week.
