This is a recording from the stars of the hit downtown NYC show Bar d'O, which was all the rage in the 1990's. The show was a place where the misfits and queers came together to meet in a small bar in Manhattan and hear their idols sing. Arais, Vine & O. It was an amazing week in the spring of 1998, when Joey Arias, Sherry Vine and Raven O came to Philadelphia and performed several shows, produced by the reckless young provocateur MoonFire Tower. Tower had a reputation for being a trouble maker club kid, with a sly wit and sound determination. He was secretly in love with Joey Arias. MoonFire Tower booked the stars of the hottest downtown show Bar d'O for dates in Philadelphia town, which were a hit, and simultaniously booked a studio in Fairmount to record this record. Soon after this recording, the studio moved, and the recording was lost for many years, over a decade actually. It is many years after that, and finally the entire surving project is being released, on the eve of the 25th anniversary of Bar d'O. Have a great show ladies! We know you will be amazing, the best there ever was! This is slice of downtown NYC history. Enjoy!
