If not, what do you think could be improved upon? What sort of songs/music would you like to see a king perform? I am a drag king in Florida. I mostly do punk/goth/industrial performances. Just looking to see if there is something else that the community would like represented. Thanks!

Additionally, I have been kinging for over 2 years. So far, I appreciate the feedback. I'm just looking to see how an audience would prefer to have it "mixed up".

I've seen a couple. Odd (as in, not what I was expecting), but good. I dated a king for a while who specialized in big band era songs. Full tux and tails costume, top hat, cane, songs like "I Won't Dance". The routines were wonderful.

I've seen a few drag king shows. I like your idea of punk/goth/industrial. Sounds good. Some of the drag kings I've met are so damn serious and self-important, though. Be sure to keep some humor in your show.

I have, in Los Angeles... It was too amature and they didn't have the right costumes and they were silly not funny... I was bored... My friend use to be a drag king and she said that she could have done much better.....
I think changing it up is a good thing, I would try something for everyone.. Challenge your self... Do some Elton John, Something different.

maybe a comedy act that take the mickey out of the guys
offspring "pretty fly for a white guy"
pretend to be a male cheer leader. a good song would be "Tennessee boys" by Grits.
Business suits/tradies outfit
tap dancing act in tradies outfit (hard hats, short demin shorts, singlets, flip flops, sheep shearing boots)

You should look up All The Kings Men, here in Boston. They are really good, have amazing choreography, and have a lot of humor in their shows.

Please, have a heart! ... spare us. If you must have drag shows, please distant it from gays. I am gay and I just dont understand the wish to pretend to be a woman. Gays are as different from transgendered as are straights. To each his own. But please lets not confuse people about gays and transgendered being sort of similar. Thank you, Sir/Madam.
