    CALENDAR
Helen Mirren is appearing at Luckey’s Cigar Club in downtown Eugene. Not really. But
New Orlean’s Quintron and Miss Pussycat are playing Luckey’s, and the duo hyped their
summer tour stopping off in Eugene with a video that, in a true WTF moment, actually
features the revered British actress. Capitalizing on this kind of WTF-style pop culture
detritus is what Quintron, along with his wife, vocalist and puppeteer Panacea Pussycat
(AKA Miss Pussycat) does best. Often instrumental, German-born Quintron plays the
Hammond B3 electric organ and an assortment of invented instruments, creating a mix
that’s a little funky Meters, a little surf rock and a little headache-inducing sugary breakfast
cereal: like hosing down the slaughterhouse floor of post-1950s American popular culture
and collecting what’s left in the drain. You’ll recall The Cramps; you’ll recall Saturday
morning cartoons the way they were when you were a kid; you’ll have a sweaty good time;
you’ll dance and you just might feel deliciously guilty in the morning.
Quintron and Miss Pussycat play with Eugene punk band Chest Cavity 9 pm Wednesday,
July 5 at Luckey’s; $5, 21-plus. — Will Kennedy
