MX JUSTIN VIVAN BOND, two added performances on July 20 & 21 at 11PM:

Extended by popular demand, Mx Justin VivIan Bond plays two newly added late night engagements on Friday July 20 and Saturday July 21 at 11PM. Silver Wells, an evening based on the newly released album of the same name, covering songs made famous by Ronee Blakley, Kate Bush, Leonard Cohen, Tracy Chapman, Joni Mitchell, Mark Eitzel and Brecht & Weill, among others. Silver Wells is inspired by - and takes it name from - Joan Didion's 1970 novel Play It As It Lays. In the show, Bond chooses a group of songs that allow V to cover the book's themes of nihilism, postmodernist identities, loss and the retrieval of memory. Doors open at 10PM. Cover charge: $20-30. $25 food and beverage minimum.
