This will hopefully be my last update until I return on Feb 15th, if I manage to get there in the first place.

  Something about January, especially toward the end of the month, is ripe for a good party.  

Ran into Marnie Scarlet again and had some time for some drinks and smokes too this time.  

All the performers stayed, and the backstage was like the kitchen in a party at home, everyone crowded in there chatting and drinking, then more, but the less said about that the better.  

I pity those that had to clear up.  

Following that we were back there again at the Lexington to shoot a video for the Urban Voodoo Machine’s forthcoming single, I’d Rather You Shot Me Down.  

Anthony and Miranda pictured below will be helping with the video, Anthony filming and editing, Miranda doing the fonts and staring in it too. More on that later.

Another round of wonderful performances including fireworks and bottoms.  

Enough said.

Run by Mat Fraser and Trixie Malicious, both veteran cabaret and burlesque performers, the night is all about New York Sleaze and audience participation.

Did this brief photoshoot to promote the night.

Photos of the night will be coming later in the month or you can find them on the facebook page, linked at the bottom of the home page.

After all the excitement of The New Orleans Wedding something a little calmer was called for.

That is not to say that front room vibe of The Dalston Devil Trio wasn’t a perfect start to a debauched evening of the usual stomping bands and burlesque.

Great Stuff.

Very friendly girl very well dressed and her friend had a black bird on her head.

Look out for much more from them this year.

New Orleans is all about art and music so it was great to mix with the cool locals at the All Ways lounge on St Claude.

Thanks to Rebecca for being the loveliest bar maid and for getting my woman drunk on Jack Daniels.  Was great to meet Maddie and Vic too, as well as English Craig and Tim.  

Married girl is officially a favorite now.

 I was thrilled to be asked to cover the graduation night with fellow photographer Tigz Rice,

this time actually performing herself as Raven Six.  

All the girls were great but Tigz did outdo herself with a great performance.

Friendly vibe and a great show, and I got to meet the refined and beautiful Lady Cheek herself, as well as see her perform.

Bumped into several people too, among them Banbury Cross and Betsy Rose.  

Lovely to see everyone and good to see Tigz get so much support.


I include here all 400+  photos from the night in small with a logo.  

Please feel free to use the photos as you wish but please don’t tamper with them or remove the logo.

Keeda Breeze (below) took control of the burlesque for the night with two acts and Jack Rabbit Slim entertained brilliantly.  

PR was in his sailor outfit and partying hard after NOLA.  

I arrived after covering a hen night so missed the other bands.

Great fun all round, find out more on facebook link below

Brilliant stuff.
