WHO TOOK THE BOMP? LE TIGRE ON TOUR
Super-queer, upbeat, edgy, and often hilarious, Who Took the Bomp? takes us on a tour bus across the globe with post-punk feminist electronic band, Le Tigre. Hugely influential, the band melded music, performance art, and politics with a confident quirky style that was uniquely their own.
We travel around the globe hitting four continents with outspoken Riot Grrrl pioneer, Kathleen Hanna (Bikini Kill), and from MEN, Johanna Fateman and the ever brilliant and charming, JD Samson. As the band negotiate the challenges of being feminists in a male-dominated rock world we get to be flies on the wall, and the interviews are candid and totally endearing. The scene where JD anguishes over whether or not they should run a piece in a Japanese magazine because the publishers want to take out the word ‘lesbian’ just makes you want to hug her. The concert scenes are, of course, brilliant. Dancing and thinking at the same time – who knew?
Keep your ticket stub and join us for half-price at the special GAZE party at Mother, Technicolor Super Mother, an all movie music night at Copper Alley from 11pm
