So its no wonder that lead singer Kevin Barnes and his Athens, Ga., band has since gotten more lyrically subversive. Their latest effort, Skeletal Lamping, is an epic sexual journey from the eyes of his alter ego, Georgie Fruit, a black transvestite. Its a perfect fit for a live show that is half Ziggy, half Zappa, but completely original. And dont worry, hipsters: After Barnes performed nude on a few tour stops this year, there is reason to believe that Outbacks CEO definitely wont be attending. So skip the bloomin onion and see Of Montreal this Saturday at 6:30 p.m. at Revolution (200 W. Broward Blvd., Fort Lauderdale). Tickets cost $17. Visit jointherevolution.net.
