SISTER HYDE ... A swaggering leather-clad figure,eyes hidden under a veil of black hair and a half-cocked top hat dances to the tune of a dirty Les Paul. Venting poison with a hail of feedback,Hyde shrieks with a razor-tongued sneer that ignites the crowd!!!...................................... The LEGEND of SISTER HYDE began in 2006 when vocalist/guitarist/songwriter & frontman extrordinaire, HYde moved to Seattle from Vancouver via LA. He met up with some likely looking droogs at a New York Doll's concert The four rockers decided to form a band that incorporated the excitement of Glam with the edge of Punk...GLITTERPUNK, they would call it!!!

Hello dark and delicious one. Well, I have a couple different things planned for Saturday evening. Of course, we will be dressing up. So many costumes, and I just don't know which to pick... We will start off by watching a local band/friend play. Then, I think we may go over to the Monte Carlo for the "Vampire & Vixens" event.
And what are you and the lovely Soma doing this weekend?
