The RecordBar might not be Berlin's Tempodrom, but that's not stopping Magfuckingnificent from performing the albums Pornography (1982), Disintegration (1989) and Bloodflowers (2000) back-to-back over two nights in Westport.
"It's quite an undertaking," says Byron Huhmann, frontman-and-Robert Smith impersonator.
Once a KC supergroup, Magfuckingnificent has scaled itself down from eight members to three. Bronson Kistler (Lovers in Transit) and Mike Alexander (Hipshot Killer) round out the tribute band on keyboards and guitar, respectively.
Huhmann and the fellas get all emo-ish and goth-y with Pornography and Disintegration at 10 p.m. on Friday, November 12 and then bring it home with the heavy keys on Bloodflowers at 11 p.m. on Saturday, November 13. Actors & Actresses open on Saturday.
