Quintessa Touche, a drag performer involved in organizing the Mother’s Day performance, reached out to both Spike and Stine to apologize for what occurred.

“If this was my bar, I would be embarrassed to put this on in front of children. This isn’t like drag queens reading books about queens and drag and whatnot. You have a pole there in the bar,” KIRO Newsradio host Jack Stine said.

ReMyx’d, which also recently hosted an adult-themed “Naughty Bingo” event, has yet to respond to The Post Millenial’s request for comment if the show was vetted for age appropriateness and safeguarding. “I wish it didn’t happen. It happened,” Touche told KIRO Newsradio. “That performer is not a terrible person, they just didn’t understand the context that they were putting out at that particular time was not appropriate for that event. We brought in performers of all ages, and sometimes, I guess performers don’t grasp the gravity of their performances. No intent to be negligent, but we’re not a strip club, and it can be used as fuel against the community. That performer is a great performer.

Drag shows, including drag queen story time, have been the target of hate crimes in the region, including a Renton bar,, which was shot at in protest of hosting a drag queen event. Gay rights activists quickly turned out in support in response to the incident.
