On New Year's Eve I'm going to Chicago with my boyfriend to see the White Stripes and the Flaming Lips, bands I love and have stripped to. I sometimes get a kick out of telling musicians I've stripped to their music - they sometimes get a kick out of hearing it, though there's some I bet wouldn't be so amused. My favorite stories are of when I interviewed Kid Rock for my college paper right before Devil Without a Cause hit big, when he was traveling in an RV - he was very happy to hear his record was big with strippers, natch. Shirley Manson from Garbage was also happy to hear about how much strippers liked her band and wanted to know just which songs were most popular in the club.
Anyone else here have similar stories? There's a lot more obscure bands I've danced to and told - the Grifters, the Oblivians, Firewater, the Strokes, etc. and I know some of you have done the same.
