Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The Central Park footage was shot during the 2004 tour where Rufus performed in full Judy Garland ' Carnegie Hall drag'—the documentary only hints at this legendary era.
This DVD dropped right as 'Want Two' cemented Rufus as the bridge between queer cabaret and indie rock stardom—essentially capturing the moment before he became opera's problem child.
