By the time we got to Tompkin's Square.....

It was one hot summer night around 5:00 in the morning that me, the Lady bunny and few others, grabbed a couple six-packs and wandered over to the bandshell in Tompkin's Square park. WHilst cavorting around on the stage, we were struck by a drunken vision of wig-wearing worshippers. Thus Wigstock was born. THere were always rock shows in the park, so we decided it was time for our own variety show. The first Wigstocks were different in the fact of being more word-of mouth. The crowd consisted of the colorful wig-wearers we envisioned, plus the smelly bums that lived in the park. To really get a taste of what it was like, you should see Tom Rubnitz's "Wigstock", the movie.
