“We haven’t
played recently
because we were
working hard on
the album,” said
Judi Lethcby,thc
band’s vocalist.
The Perks
were formed when Judi and her
husband Bob, who is the bassist,
moved to Lincoln from Norfolk.
“We put an ad in the paper and
Butch (Berman, the band’s guitar
ist and keyboardist) called us up,”
she said. “We held auditions for
drummers, and we chose Dean
(Bridges).
“Everything just clicked.”
The Perks have played at the
Zoo Bar before, as well as the
Howard Street Tavern in Omaha,
among other places.
Lctheby described The Perks’
sound as “rockabilly and blues,
though we have a surf song called
Bobby Dean’ on the recording.”
The Perks also have built up
“kind of a fan club at the Legisla
ture,” where Lctheby works.
“Three of the songs are about
people I work with there,” she said.
When asked i f she had any songs
about problem people at the Legis
lature, she replied, “'Slick Little
Louie’ is about someone who used
to work there. The song tells it all.”
“Twisted Twang!” is being re
leased on Sty Records, The Perks’
self-run record label.
“I’m doing all of the public rela
tions myself. It’s a lot of work,”
Letheby said.
The Perks will play tonight at
the Zoo Bar from 5 to 7. There is a
$4 cover charge. They also will
play at Eldorado Hills in Norfolk
on April 6 from 8 p.m. to midnight.

Continued from Page 12 .
men the typical love songs become
hilarious.
I found iheir takes on such clas
sics as “Macho Man” and “Fever”
to be especially humorous.
Their use of essential props is
also great.
They would be worth seeing even
if they just had amusing lyrics and
jokes, but there is more.
They are really talented. They
have beautiful voices, and yes, beau
tiful is the word to describe them. If
you close your eyes and try to block
out the fact that what you are watch
ing looks like a bunch of women,
you will hear four men belting out
some of the best a cappel 1 a you have
ever heard. When they are not goof
ing around with their music in a skit,
they really can make some impres
sive and beautiful noise.
It was a great way to spend a
couple of hours in a scene that was
very new to me, although it was
somewhat sad to be in a room full of
attractive guys with the realization
that Brian would probably get a date
with one before I would.
“Kinsey Sicks” will perform two
more shows at “Q” tonight and Sat
urday at 8 p.m. with doors opening
at 7 p.m. Tickets are $ 10, but seating
is limited.
