JAMES & AMANDA-
were a gay male & fag-hag female singing duo. they were fixtures in weho during the new wave 1980s. i used to see them @ every club and bar on a nightly basis. of course i also went out on a nightly basis so the chance of running into them was high.
i fondly remember greeting james on many occasions to which he would respond with his now legendary stark reply- "HI, HOW ARE YOU?"
i even saw them perform their classic remake of "i need a man," @ the spike. a leather bar on santa monica blvd that's long gone. now a trendy bridge & tunnel bar.
i even saw james & amanda perform @ daddy warbucks in palm spring in the late 80s. glen meadmore opened for J&A.
between the both of them, glen meadmore's crab dance, and jame's flat singing style, they succeeded to clear the room.
