Like Pee Wee's Playhouse, but real - The Trachtenburgs
Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players

Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players are taking their show on the road in July. The variety show/vaudeville act/sing-along band will travel down the East Coast over the course of three weeks.

Before that, the Trachtenburgs will play a headlining show at (Le) Poisson Rouge on Thursday, July 2nd. Joining them will be Tammy Faye Starlite and .357 Lover (Corn Mo's band). Tickets are on sale.

That band will stop home in NYC for a few days mid-tour. In that time, they'll be two free performances (or episodes as the case may be) of Rachel Trachtenburg's Homemade World, the youngest member's spin-off project. Both of those will be on July 12th: first at Solar One's Citysol (11:30 AM), then at the Beach at Governors Island (3:00 PM). The Governors Island show is a collaboration with Wakka Wakka Productions, "known for their creative and entertaining puppetry." The program describes the show as "a magical journey of music, reading, puppetry and live performance to find out Where The Wild Things Are."

You can see a few clips of Rachel Trachtenburg's Homemade World the TV Show, which looks amazing, and a preview of Rachel's new band, The Oh My God Girls, with other videos and all tour dates, below...

Trachtenburg is a kindly stuttering mess that lashes out when least expected. Don't trust him. And he's a dick to his wife.

You can tell he's mad at his wife there.
Too much Rimbaud,lemon poppies, and baking pies.
Oh Trachtenburg, a less fiery eye I beg you!

Corn Mo is worth the ticket price - this guy can blow your mind with his vocal power. What I wouldn't give to see him! Go .357 Lover!!
