Thoroughly enjoyed the Tassel Club on Friday. Glad to hear it'll go monthly. Don't mean to sound pervy but it is very entertaining with comedy, song & of course the beautiful ladies.
Was joined by lady_bastet, ickle_tayto, paddywisha, nephster13, tabilities, Maggie, Orla, Arthur & Catherine. All the ladies looked fantastic & received numerous compliments throughout the night from other audience members. Well done girls.
EDIT:
Felt my review needed a bit more detail...
First up when we got in, Herb Dade was building up the mood with a little jazz. Was surprised when I saw the site a few weeks back to see he's the chap that works in Yamamori. Small world again! He has the familiar jazz jangly voice, decked out in suit & bowler hat with a cool rustic cane.
Next up we had a faithful Cabaret performance of Mien Herr. Neglected to take any photos as I was still unsure of the policy. It was a great performance despite a slight audio hiccup. Hats off to lady for continuing on unabated. Great start to the show to get the tempo going.
The stunning Ms. lucifire took to the stage then to compare for the night but also to give us a little of her vocal elicitation. Things were kept straight burlesque for the night, no stabbing, poking, swallowing or suspending for the night. Gotta keep with a mood I suppose.
Camp male comedy from Dusty Limits followed up with some double entendres & sorrowful pining to song.
lucifire returned again for another song & a striptease complete with stocking slicing via cutthroat razor. Very efficient method of getting them off.
Next up was Betty Broadway to give us some old time choons.
A performance for the ladies next by a rather entertaining chap singing "He has big balls, she has big balls but I've got the biggest balls of them all" LOL, was a good routine though.
There was an intermission somewhere here. Chance to mingle, grab drinks & snap a few photos.
lucifire returned again to introduce the first of the burlesque ladies of the night, Fancy Chance. Humorously, she came on all nerdy & nervous in a wedding dress & threatened to kill herself as her husband to be jilted her. But of course, blink of an eye off came the dress to reveal a gorgeous petite Asian lass. Check out the photos to see her fantastic feather cloak.
Bit hazy at this point. Wasn't drinking but think I'm muddling things up a little. lucifire came on again to introduce the final lady, Gwendoline Lamour. Gwendoline also played up the innocent charm decked out in lace with her frilly parasol. She did 2 routines which were excellent of course.
The night was rounded off with a rousing bit of jazz from Herb Dade, calling all the performers back onto the stage.

ReplyDeleteMy photos don't even show the venue which was totally awesome. They had what was, for all intents & purposes, a tent. But the exterior had paneling with 20's patterning & images & the interior had wood paneling & mirrors. Twas fantastic.
ReplyDeletestop stop! you are making me so jealous.. we have NOTHING like that over here well not that I know of.
ReplyDeleteIt's only kicking off now. The Tassel Club have had shows over the past year but with minimal publicity (have to aim for the right patrons, I suppose).
