Michael Cerachi was/is BY FAR my favorite karaoke partner. He used to come into the bar and after two hours of watching a bunch of buzzed people sing songs like Hotel California, he would walk in with his Tina Turner dress and wig and say "Trenny, when I rip off my jacket as 'Proud Mary' kicks in, catch it so it doesn't get stained on the floor. "
He moved to San Francisco a couple of years ago and performs with a self made drag group called The Tranny Shack. I think he can also be found on google under his drag name
"Tweeka Turner"
His you tube performance of "We Don't Need Another Hero' by Tina Turner is memorable.
The above pic was posted on his page the other day with a message that he wrote to the friend who sent it to him:
"Oh wow, 'Working at the Car Wash'! Remember going to the Haight to get the outfits and wigs? And what about our earlier performance of 'Hell Is For Children' by Pat Benatar a couple of weeks earlier?"
LOL!! Funny, good stuff! That San Francisco crowd better be appreciating his dope lip synching grooves as much as I did- I'm so jealous I'm missing them! He is a super sweet person- for real.
**He did a version- at my request- one time of "Spill The Wine" that literally made me pee in my pants a little- I was laughing so hard.
