Rollerderby writer Lisa Carver reflects on her time in the touring scuzz revue Suckdog (ca. 1987-1998). Founded by Carver and Rachel Johnson, Suckdog was a showcase for psychosexual operettas characterized by wildly convoluted tales of seduction. Fractured Casio melodies, aggressive falsettos, and sloppy, passionate orgies were mainstays of Suckdog productions. Featuring Meat Cake artist Dame Darcy, renowned baritone GG Allin, Bill Callahan (aka Smog), and the feral French performance artist Jean-Louis Costes.
