" & send off awsome Ali for her rockin European tour"  ;D
When are you going Ali? Soon, right?

Go as Lenny Kravtiz's drummer: That girl out-fros Erykah Badu!

[ali]

who is wendy o williams?

in exactly two weeks i'll be sitting on my bum in the plane...

erykah badu! excellent! my flatmate was trying to think of someone with an afro (she has an afro wig)... cool!

[ratsprayer]

going as wendy o williams would be fuckin' scary.

wot about going as walter/wendy carlos?  you could dress one half of your body as a man, and the other half as your normal woman self.   ;)

[ali]

sorry for sounding like a broken record, but who is walter/wendy??

[dragonboy]

I looked for pictures but it would appear there is a porn star with the same name  :o

Here's a site about the singer:

I'm pretty sure she recorded a duet with Lemmy once...

walter/wendy carlos was an electronic musician back in the late 60s and 70s.  he/she is best known for the album SWITCHED ON BACH which was mostly the soundtrack for A Clockwork Orange.

Wendy O. Williams was a wild, wild lady.   Check out this link for her bio:

I love that picture of Jim nd the Flying V, i have it as my wallpaper on my work computer.  

as for costumes...can you pull off a pat benatar? (there are a few fun looks you can work as her)  or can you grow a lions mane, toss on a "visit bermuda" shirt and go as Jim?
