Burlesque-esque
So, I went to a comedy theatre show thing at the Fringe Festival last night with Monique - ate dinner before hand (too much cheese) and watched a woman talk to us about kinky sex for an hour. Quite fun really... there was a pop quiz where we yelled "penis" or "vagina" to answer the questions and won sex toys.
I didn't win any.
Further audience participation: a man who was dressed in a pink cowboy costume and then encouraged to strip for us all. Nothing like seeing pink chaps go flying to define an evening really... But overall, not a super exciting play. As we left, Mon said that she sort of imagines that she might learn more about sex and shit than she already knew but, nothing really. EXCEPT, apparently Ricky Martin is into watersports. And then Mon told me kind of a funny story about Ricky Martin stealing George Michael's boy toy at a benefit concert of some description?
In other news, I was listening to a Patti Smith track the other day and my (25 y.o) flatmate walked into the lounge and said - "What the hell is this? All that screaming - it's not really music is it?" To which I replied "Thanks Grandad. Check your birth certificate". Sometimes he really really bugs me. Actually it's more like often, and a fair amount.
Especially when he criticises my music and then listens to John Denver tracks on repeat, really loudly, in his room, on a Saturday morning. Passion killer. This flat really isn't big enough for four adults. I always feel like people are all up in my space. And I"m not great at krumping, can't show them how that shit feels, MAAAAAAAN.

Its worse when you get to my age, people keep telling me to grow up, as though I have no right to listen to good music.Don't have any flat mates so I'm one up on you there.
ReplyDeleteWas the Burlesque show called something like Hot Pink Does Vegas? I went to one of her shows once, and won an Elvis Dancing Competition (best out of four amateur dancers! Yeah!), which procured me a whole bunch of ribbed prophylactics. And a night in a hotel.
ReplyDeleteI was celibate at the time.
Bex darling, it was indeed Hot Pink, but was rather Hot Pink Bits... I remember the hotel room though, that was a very cool party. The best thing was when we got kicked out of the room, I felt sooooo bad ass. Lets have a party in a hotel room again.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what I did with those pants that I wore?
