Win Tix to Richard Cheese & Lounge Against the Machine on Wednesday!
The cheesiest cat in the music biz brings his swanky show to the Fonda this Wednesday…and you can go! His lounge-lizard versions of contemporary rock blockbusters and his regular gig as the house band on Last Call with Carson Daly has earned him worldwide renown, but I have to give the maddest props for his clever reworkings of modern rock titles: Aperitif for Destruction, for example, Viva la Vodka and OK Bartender.
The man is a genius, clearly.
If you could Cheese-ify any music album or song, what would it be? Leave yours in the comments for a chance to win tickets. For example, my submission would be Don’t Stop Drinkin’ (Journey).
Now you! Info on the show is here.

I’d pay money to see Richard Cheese and Lounge Against the Machine take on ‘Du Hast’. Can’t think of any Rammstein related lounge puns at the moment, but hearing Richard’s velvety booze soaked tones transforming gravelly screamy German would be well worth the price of an album.
Back in the mid 80’s when I was living in San Francisco we had an act named the Dino’s who performed lounge covers of disco, contemporary and old standards. Their motto, “Take A Walk On The Mild Side.” I saw them perform 95 times in one year, it was a very good year.
