this friday

coming up this friday, Ahmy is having a burlesque show at the Hyde gallery. Ryan Agler right now is telling me that he ran into (disco-ball) Chris downtown and that he's going to be involved on this event with a grip of other people. I'm not sure what else is happening besides the burlesque, but it seems like a bunch of shit might be goin on.

Anyways, she said they want to pay us a cut out of the raffle that they are going to hold, so we might be comin out with some cash.

The problem as I understand it, is that Andreas won't be here on Friday. So me and Mills are going to have to bust this one solo (and on bikes too, most likely! yay). I believe that Kelly Peach is down to let us install and use Arkaos on her laptop for the show, but I, personally, have not asked her.

They want to know if we can rehearse with them on Thursday...
My sisters phone number is 917-2013 if you want to talk to her directly but here is an email she shot me about what she hopes we can pull off for the visuals:

Opening song: life is just a bowl of cherries.
no dancing during this number, so you can be as elaborate as you want. cherries, balloons, red stuff.

next...

Classic stripper music... you know wahhh waaaahhhhh.... trumpets and stuff...
the dance is the balloon popping act.
if you can make the visuals to this one have the holes on the side, like a film strip rolling, and maybe langerei floating around...

transition is to some more big band jazzy stuff, and we sweep up the balloon parts, and confetti from the first number. \

next...

the pink room. we are going to have a strobe light for this number. if possible, i want you to turn it on for us.
projection, nothing moving, but we want the image of a red curtain, like in twin peaks.. the song is called pink room off of the fire walk with me sound track.

then another transition. the music is the tool organ music from the enima album. we will be just changing.

next...

rendez vous. this is the creepy bdsm dolls. the music is french. its from the tripletts of bellville soundtrack called rendez vous. if you could,
we want the visuals to be more film strip stuff, really gritty. you know? like a really old movie, with lines, and scratches in the film.

then another transition to some funkey disco with the sounds of a woman most likely being pleasured orally. something discoey maybe?
bright colours, sexy women with afros would be cool. james bondy shilouettes, or fanta girls would also work. you know.

then the umbrella dance. this is our grand final. its ultra dreamy. its to the goldfrapp song 'uk girls (physical)' and we dance with umbrellas.
visuals, maybe bubbles, slow blury things, birds, timelaps flowers, timelaps sky. timelaps clouds. especially the timelaps stuff if you can.

then our closing music will be thank heavens for little girls. this is an easy one, just a bunch of cute girls and girly stuff.

when i get home i can tell you how long the tracks are.

im so happy yall can help! it warms my heart.

hugs and kisses
