They were amazing live! I was totally blown away and everyone was bugging out from the get go to the get lost. You couldn't help but smile the entire time. Talk about costumes...Khan has a new one that consists of a kind of 1970s robot/knight helmet with a gold beaded beanie that he wears under it, a gold cape, and shiny boots. He wears this while shirtless and in his boxer briefs. Ha! I love this band, but I do have to say I prefer King Khan and BBQ Show. The interplay between Mark Sultan's(BBQ) amazing soulful vocals and Khan's raspy deeper voacals is perfect. Sultan is an amazingly talented live one man band. Khan is the visionary mad man.

They are The King Khan & BBQ Show. I love both bands, but I must say that I prefer the doowop flavor of The King Khan & BBQ Show to The Shrines. And I am pretty sure the more soulful vocals are actually those of 'BBQ' (Mark Sultan). King Khan is the entertainer. King Khan is King Khan and BBQ is BBQ. They are The King Khan & BBQ Show.

On the other hand, BBQ isn't 11 musicians! Hurrah for the Shrines. Speaking of his wardrobe: I have a great photo from the King Khan and BBQ Show show at Spaceland last year, with Khan shaking his ass in a minidress. The cover art for this album is even more Common than Common could pull off.
