Demoan has been a regular performer at the White Horse since before June 2010, when Rebel Kings of Oakland was founded. He has embarked on a new journey in launching the Baltimore chapter of Rebel Kings. Be sure to support us on both coasts! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5af3ec23c258b48a2ee8c352/1550188092538-UZCC0Y59JILZFT17RS2K/_MG_8126s.JPG Meet The Producers - RANDY PUCK Director of Tenderness, VP of Gender Affectionately known as the "Puckster" amongs the boys, Randy Puck is a mischievious prankster with a penchant for clowning.
