Kinky Friedman is on tour w/ Little Jewford & Washington Ratso (Highline Ballroom tonight)
Little Jewford & Kinky Friedman
“Kinky Friedman, author, musician, politician, beautician, and self-proclaimed Governor Of the Heart Of Texas, will be performing dates throughout the midwest and east coast, as part of his Springtime For Kinky Tour of 2011. Often returning to places he has not visited in two decades, the Kinkster will be touring solo and promoting his most recent book, Heroes Of A Texas Childhood. Books will be available for sale following each show, and Kinky will sign autographs.
Buoyed by his Go West Young Kinky Tour last spring and his monster appearance on the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival in October, Kinky will take his show to many of his favorite American cities. Playing the songs for which he is best known, such as “They Ain’t Making Jews Like Jesus Anymore” and “Sold American,” reading passages from his books, and carrying on his hilarious running commentary on the state of the union, Kinky, the prodigal son of Texas, will, indeed, return to the scenes of his crimes of years gone by”
Kinky cigars will be on sale at the merch booth at Highline Ballroom tonight (5/9), and at other dates listed below…
