Is that a clump of seaweed or Bunny's wig? From: NewNowNext  From 1984 to the mid-2000s, Wigstock was the New York drag world’s answer to Woodstock, with Lady Bunny gathering performers like Lypsinka, Deee-lite, Joey Arias, Ffloyd, Leigh Bowery and RuPaul herself to gag the crowds with once-in-a-lifetime performances.  Gentrification brought an end to Wigstock , but last year Bunny resurrected the fest as a boat cruise through the New York harbor.  And on August 21, she’s bringing it back for a sophomore voyage with co-host Linda Simpson, plus downtown favorites like Connie Fleming, Jimmy James, Ebony Jett, Glamamore, Juanita More, John Kelly (as Joni Mitchell, of course), Tabboo!, Michael West and the Dueling Bankheads, and beats from DJ Johnny Dynell and DJ Ed Bailey. Join 1,200 fist er, first mates for performances, cocktails, dancing, a free buffet and more. What’s more, if the boat capsizes, Bunny’s wig doubles as a lifeboat!
