What a night! Trannyshack’s Kiss-Off party came and went without a hitch, marking the end of an era in San Francisco’s drag scene and the start of a new one for all involved.
Over 3,000 delighted fans showed up at the Regency Center on Saturday night to watch some of the country’s best drag queens and drag-inspired musicians dazzle the audiences with their elaborate, colorful and majestic performances.

In many ways the Trannyshack Kiss Off was a collection of the best moments from one of the longest running and influential drag shows in the country.
On today’s show we hang out once again with gender illusionist and Daughter of Satan Peaches Christ and the delightful Curtis Jensen to look at the final moments of Trannyshack’s Kiss Off Party and to help us say goodbye to this wonderful city as we head home to Chicago.
Listen for the juicy behind the scenes details as we dish up the dirt on what rocked and what was mocked at Trannyshack.
Can the hilarious Lady Bunny read and write her own name? Maybe, but one thing the hilarious founder of Wigstock can do is make you laugh with her raunchy collection of rotten jokes. You can look forward to our backstage interview with her next week.
Plus- Raya Light and Hoku Mama Swamp’s crowd pleasing performances, Beyond the Valley of the San Francisco Underground Short Film Festival and Obama’s pick for President, whoops, I mean VICE President Sen. Joe Biden.
He’s the one who misspoke several months ago about Obama being “clean.” What do you think about his pick for VP? Will this alliance unite the democratic party?
