We weren’t sure if Cindy Lee would keep going. Pat Flegel’s musical project and drag persona had an off-the-grid underground smash with last year’s double album Diamond Jubilee, then abruptly cut short the tour supporting the album. When the Cindy Lee catalog went Bandcamp-exclusive this year, with W.25TH launching pre-orders for vinyl reissues, it did not necessarily confirm the project was still a going concern. Then Flegel announced a brief run of fall shows, which began Tuesday night at Chicago’s Thalia Hall.
