Keeper of the Gems

Do you know who Leslie & The Ly's are? If not, then we seriously cannot be friends any longer. Just kidding. But you really do need to find out about this group. Specifically the lead singer, Leslie Hall. Leslie had her very first Denton show yesterday and I was there. It was fan-flippin-tastic! My brother, L, went with me and we had a great time!

After two opening acts, Leslie hit the stage. She was wearing her gold jumpsuit, blue eye shadow and oversized glasses. She rocked, she rolled, she shook, she danced. She was amazing. Her show started with her famous "Gold Pants" song. Then she went into her classics such as "Zombie Killer" and "Shazam I'm Glamorous." The whole crowd was totally into her and she had a room full of loyal fans. Her songs are hilarious, her stage presence is strong and her sparkly magic is incomparable. After the show, she came out to sign autographs, take pics and just chat with those who stuck around. That was the best part! I loved getting to meet her.

For those of you not familiar with Leslie, she is the owner and founder of the Gem Sweater Mobile Museum. She collects those sweaters that were attacked by the Bedazzler in the 80s. She even dubs herself "Keeper of the Gems." Also, she is a rapper from Iowa who writes all her own lyrics and her mom makes all her stage costumes. You really should check out her Web site to find out more:
