Live: Kanye & The Kids at One Step Beyond

January 28, 2008


There were already a few pre-show rumors circulating about a Kanye appearance at Flavorpill's party at the ANMH Planetarium last Friday, so we weren't surprised to find the other performers at their sartorial best—most notably Kid Sister in a Jetsons-appropriate monochrome swing dress. Kanye, on the other hand jumped on stage for "Pro Nails" in an outfit that was totally anti-spacey. No futuristic specs or planetary moon boots, instead our man shows up looking decidedly vintage in a Starsky and Hutch fur jacket and a pin that might as well read "MJ for president." Smuggled on stage by his bodyguards, the performance was actually perfect timing (Kid Sister had just rallied all the ladies in the audience for a huge girlie sing-a-long) for a simultaneous meeting of spontaneous enthusiasm (Kanye's, the crowd's, Kid Sister's) that had people climbing up on to every single planet/meteorite/satellite on the museum floor to get closer to the good vibes. All-in-all a pretty stellar way to end a good night, although falling asleep to the soothing sounds of Robert Redford who narrates the Space Show upstairs comes a very close second. Check some more dazzling photos after the jump and over on Flavorpill.
