I have a CD of the Leningrad cowboys, a bona fide Russian pop, except  
sung in English. If it were in Russian I would have used in class.  
Verka Serdjuchka is a performer in drags more akin to Dame Edna (and  
I am a great fan of Dame Edna), but they hardly have anything in  
common, I mean Verka Serdiuchka and Leningrad cowboys.
