Can we pretend that the airplanes in the night sky are shooting stars

I've been neglecting my blog a lot but hopefully that shall change now as i've finally got a laptop so i should at least be able to update once a week :) though james will probably comment on the fact i should get a tmblr like all the 'cool' kids, I think not.

I'm working on new routines and maybe a new blog just for burlesque I have't decided yet.
Unless i set up my own Von Vap website which is a very real possibility as my lovely Peski has offered to set one up for me, I just need to work ut if its wort while profit wise.

Saturday night was AMAZING!! performed at The Kitty Kat Cabaret in Shrewsbury at the old post office hosted by the delightful Raven Meadows! It was one hell of a fabulous show and I have to say my two best performances ever I actualy came off stage from both so happy with what I'd done which was a lovely change :) I did my completed Mermaid act with my giant clam shell and my original act 'gentlemen prefer blondes' as it was Kitty goes to te movies. So much had gone in to the whole production even before each act there was a presentation on the back wall with a noir movie feel as our names flashed across the back wall with some of our routine information!!
My little muffin Peski took me to the gig with the lovely El Kapitan!! we looked a right weird lot walking through the streets of shrewsbury with a giant clam, bed of nails and one eyed jack [my ferret thomas bought me saturday and surprised me with at work].
The other lovely ladies performing that evening were Ava, Cherry Zombie, Peski DeVille and Miss. Raven who's Pink Panther act I fell in love with, she looks just like Ann Fur Laxis too [lucky lady] Peski told me Khandie said she wanted to 'cut off Ravens face and wear it'I'd like to point out I feel the same way - Creepy minds think alike.
Peski's acts were bloody fantastic a balloon pop to mein heir as liza minellie and her brand new Medusa act with the fabulous new headdress of snakes!! with fire eating, body burning, stripping and bed of nails what more could you ask for??

The Sunday before I was Cabaret Carnage the Aftrmath but sadly being a Sunday afternoon I wasn't feeling it from the crowed so my boudoir act and mermaid act did suffer a little but Saturday definatly made up for it!

Coming up is 7th May - I'm performing at The Darkside I might adapt my 'TheDoctor will see you now' act, new song maybe? something more sadistic? I need a new shower curtain for it.

I need to start house / flat hunting very soon!!

Upcoming acts, well acts that I'm working on

Post Woman - I want to do like a 60's postwoman act mainly because I have short 60's hair now [stupid bleaching] using a mix of the song return to sender by Elvis and STOP! wait a minute Mr Postman by the carpenter, I think I need to get making some form of red post box [theres no room to store these things in my bloody atic room] - I better get some navy cotton too to start making the a line shift dress, white under wear, card to make letters and envelopes and a brown satchel!

Balloon POP:

I'd like to do a classic balloon pop to Big Spender by Peggy Lee - with cream/black balloons filled with silver glitter with a champagne pop finale.

theres also a few more but I best not run before I can walk - I want to go over some of my old acts too to refresh and change a few things.

Hopefully I'm of to Derby tomorrow night.
Time to get packing.
