Nina and GLJ... truly a grouping of the sublime and the ridiculous.

The last time I saw Nina was also in the 80s, though I've followed her career since - from doing the voice of Sally in the German version of Nightmare Before Christmas to her Indian-influenced spiritual records to her appearance in Weill/Brecht's 'Threepenny Opera' to her Big Band album - Nina just doesn't stop, and doesn't disappoint.

The one (and only IIRC) time I saw GLJ in the early 80s, the show erupted into a silly string fight. And that's pretty much all I remember about them.

Sounds like a fun show. I ought to check it out.
