Bob…

Bob the Drag Queen, that is. A friend and I have tickets to see Bob the Drag Queen tonight in Burlington at the Vermont Comedy Club. The show was originally supposed to be back in May, but for some reason was rescheduled. 

Christopher Delmar Caldwell was born to Martha Caldwell on June 22, 1986. His last name, "Caldwell,” was later incorporated into the professional name "Caldwell Tidicue.” He was born in Columbus, Georgia. He moved a lot as a kid, which included Phenix City, Alabama (across the state line from Columbus), Corinth, Mississippi, LaGrange, Georgia, and Atlanta, Georgia. 


He was raised in Clayton County, Georgia. Caldwell explained, "You can call it the hood. You can say it. That's where I'm from." His mother owned a drag bar in Columbus, Georgia. On the nights that she could not afford a babysitter, she brought Caldwell to the drag bar, where he would work and collect money from the patrons.


In the summer of 2009, Caldwell started doing drag, after watching the first season of RuPaul's Drag Race. In 2016, he competed on season eight of the show and was crowned the winner.


We should have a good time tonight. I’m excited. Luckily, I’m working from home today, so I have plenty of time to get ready to go out tonight.

  1. How was the show?

    Do you ever go to other gay events, like Folson Street, Market Days or P-Town?

  2. RB, the show as great and we had a wonderful time. We got there early and got seated at the stage, so we had a front row view.

    I've always wanted to go to Folsom Street, Market Days and P-Town, but I've never had the chance to go. I would love to, but it's just too expensive.
