ABCQuinn at the Opry


They got both types of music here... Country *and* Western.
Thankfully Quinn play neither, only their own amazing songs, mostly from their about to be re-released album Sun Moon Stars, which I have been playing on a loop for the last 10 months.

Club Naaaar


Went to the "World's Biggest Burlesque Club ©®" this weekend. Hmmm. As the saying goes, size is not everything.

Went twice before and didn't rate it. Now that it packs in 2,000 each time, the acts are marginally better but the audience is very much firmly in the Having A Night Out In Fancy Dress mode. Think Skool Disco in corsets. They do for Burlesque what Singalonga did for the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

In fact, the show did even include a singalong moment. To Remember You're A Womble.

Says it all, really.

This is how I could have looked in 1986...


... If I'd had a clue how to go about it, and a set of crimpers
