Dang

Wow... Belltown's first annual Founder's Day Festival was a hit!  And to be honest, our set brought the house down and stole the night!  It was wonderful, dreamy even.  And I have to thank everyone that was involved from the bottom of my heart.   I spent many of my own hours building a set, rehearsing, and working with a growing team of folks that were also part of the show.  And what a team!  Stone Crow Designs (headed by the amazing Jennifer Charkow) put a whole line together from design to construction and runway in a matter of weeks!  Marcia Burgess and her crew of assistants did out of this world hair/makeup.  Mandie Liscious made my costume, gloves, and headpiece in less than a month flat.  We had Avataria of Philli fly all the way out to the west coast to DJ and sing backup vocals with us... Ahh, and the list could go on.  Stage management by Joshua and Charlie, merch by miz Ginny, Dance piece by Erin and Sam.  More foxy moves from Stella Rose... Goodness, we had a serious team of folks pulling this show-mobile forward.  I also have to thank my pops for running the whole outfit and helping get our set built and put on stage.... Is the outro music playing already?  So many people to say "THANK YOU!" to.
But again, WOW.  Scobra mixed the show, and I have to say, we sounded like a million bucks, our tracks bouncing off of the walls of all the buildings downtown.  Crisp, clean, and clear.
And now, we have even more shows in the works.  Bookings from folks that saw our throw-down, so you can expect an even bigger show next time!
Putting this show together was an exciting first step for me (and perhaps everyone else... but I haven't asked them specifically yet...).  I feel like it is a hot 'square one' for our future shows, and I am now looking forward to 'square two'.  More fashion, more dance, throw in some aerial work and pyro, and I think you are looking at 'square three'.  We're getting there... all contacts in order... just need the venue.  But I am rambling, babbling out of happiness.  I am happy.  Simply put.  I am happy and thrilled that this show and everyone involved came together and gave something fresh and new to the audience.  Really entertained them.  And everyone involved is down for the next one!  What could be better than that?
Okay, I'll go now, otherwise I may overflow with all of this gooey happiness and ruin my computer ;)
