On Dec. 4 the guru of bad taste returns to San Diego for 'A John Waters Christmas' at the Belly Up Tavern. cinebeth has more ⤵️
John Waters is old school, and I say that with absolute respect. I have had multiple interviews with him over the decades and he still uses the same muffled landline piped through his office. But no matter what the sound quality, he is John Waters and he is always a delight to speak with.John Waters and KPBS arts reporter Beth Accomando at his 2014 Christmas show. Dec. 2, 2014"I'm not interested in Facebook," Waters said."That's a lazy way to be a friend.
Waters has just finished writing a new version of his"A John Waters Christmas," which he is taking on tour. "It's completely different," Waters insisted."It's about how everything seems like it's over, the end of the world, and I'm going to tell you how to fix it. And is Christmas broken too? Is that even going to work this year? Everybody's despairing, including me. But I believe in hope. So it's an optimistic show about the problems of Christmas.
Waters occupies a unique place in pop culture. He's rebellious, anti-establishment, on the fringe but his particular kind of challenge to authority seems to be free from the kind of hate and anger that usually fuels that kind of attitude. "That's why I've been able to get away with it for 50 years," Waters said with glee."Because I make fun of the things I love, not hate. So I'm not mean-spirited. And the first step is I make fun of myself. I did in the very beginning of my career, and I still do. And that's the difference. The politically correct crowd is so self righteous. So you don't try to make your enemy feel stupid.
