“People can make a nice little crawl out of it if they want to,” Ani Meinhold tells New Times.
A co-owner at Phuc Yea, Meinhold spearheaded the project. MiMo is a quaint, casual little neighborhood and people should experience its diversity, she says. The vibe is not over-the-top or pretentious. Businesses are owned by locals and eateries offer more than meets the eye. People don’t even realize how many hidden gems there are in the area.
VulgarGrad
DATE
Time
This event is part of the 2021 Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
Is the gulag a laughing matter? Is alcoholism a joke to you? Are songs written by, for, and about Russian criminals anything to chuckle about? Maybe that gravel-voiced rough diamond of stage screen, Jacek Koman, and his band VulgarGrad are guilty of making light of these serious matters? You be the judge! It’s folk-punk-polka-ska-swing – so dance!
Sometimes good men do bad things…
VulgarGrad bring you the old songs of the Russian thieves (called blatnie pesny or blatnyak), along with punk classics of the Perestroika era and a strong dose of contemporary St. Petersburg swearing ska. Their latest album is The Odessa Job (2019).
