Funky Friday - Something Old - Something New

Every Friday is Funky Friday on Planet Mondo and this week brings you several takes on 'Tell Mama'

Something old that looks like someone new, and someone new doing something old.


'Tell Mama' - Marva Whitney

I wonder if Amy Wino' may have taken a leaf or two out of Martha's style sheets?



Either that or Amy's a Time Lord! Which may explain the one size fit's all dimensions beehive and recent bout of 'fatigue'. Jet lag's nasty enough but jumping hoops through the space-time continuum is bound leave you a woozy, weary and struggling to make the gig.

Nah! That would just be too bizarre.


But not as bizarre as....


XENA WARRIOR PRINCESS OF SOUL!! sings Tell Mama



When Xena's done with cracking skulls, raiding the gates of Hades and slaying Cyclops, two headed serpents, and satanic wing-ed beasties, she hang's up her sword and shield and chills her boots by getting on the good foot at 'The Canal Rooms' (upstairs at the Prancing Pony). Where she likes to loosen up with some live on stage lungbusting.

Yes, it really is that Lucy Lawless

If all this has fried your brain, why not soothe your jangled nerves with this treat.
