  • Midwest Mayhem, Chicken Fingers, and Drag: A Weekend in Missouri

    This week on Music Business, Nyx That Bitch joins us to recap a wild weekend performing at Truman State University alongside Shitty Princess and RuPaul’s Drag Race favorite Jessica Wild. The trip kicked off in St. Louis with chaotic pre-show antics through exploring the gay bars in The Grove. Once in Kirksville, the queens found an unexpectedly hype crowd and what Nyx swears are the best chicken fingers in the world. Between the laughs, the episode dives into the reality of touring through the Midwest and how different each audience can be. Nyx reflects on the challenges of adapting to new environments and winning over crowds who may not know what to expect. It’s a mix of chaos, comedy, and real insight into how these off-the-beaten-path shows shape performers in ways big-city gigs never could.
