On May 9, 2026, after a busy day at work, I headed to San Francisco, California, The destination was the DNA Lounge and the event was Mimi Banks opening for Little Miss Nasty for the Deaddollz tour and what a night it was. The near sold out crowd killed it and the artists were down for it.
When Mimi Barks hit the stage, she opened in a black trench coat, while the drummer wore a black shirt and shorts. The pair rocked the stage at the DNA with a passion. Taking off the trenchcoat for the second song, they powered through their music with an ease that was breathtaking. Their music was both mellow and hard, and the audience thoroughly enjoyed it. The highlight of the set was when they broke into “Wormgirl,” where she got into the pit and danced and sang. That was awesome. This artist was one to look out for; she is an excellent performer and puts on a great show.

When Little Miss Nasty hit the stage, everyone in attendance was stoked. Little Miss Nasty isn’t your normal concert; they blend burlesque with a heavy-metal soundtrack in a unique style. Featuring music from Nine Inch Nails, Korn, Rage Against the Machine, and Rob Zombie, they deliver a show second to none. Their skits ranged from simple spanking to doing the splits on anything around them, continually raising the bar with each act. It was sexy, fun, a bit naughty, and distinctly Little Miss Nasty. Many in the crowd were in awe of the setup off stage, with one performer dazzling us with her stunning routine. Another high point came when two girls executed impressive backbends and splits, demonstrating incredible flexibility. Bravo! With so much happening, it’s hard to capture the entire experience in words. This show shouldn’t be missed, and I will cover them as long as they have me.
