A brief review of Club V, and a touch of meme-ery

[cupcake_goth]

Last night's edition of Club V at Neighbors Downstairs was fantastic. I REALLY like the new space. It has a good dance floor, tables and chairs in sensible arrangements, and doesn't feel like a basement rec-room. After all my complaining about the subject, it's nice to finally have a good non-smoking club night on a weekend. A not so-subtle hint to local folks: it would be awfully nice to see more dressed-up gothy types there on a regular basis ...

(Waits for the mutterings of "Dressed up? During the summer? She IS crazy, isn't she?!" to subside. C'mon peoples! I Dress Up for going dancing, and I haven't melted or passed out yet! Even with corsets. You Can Do It, I believe in you! ::grin::)

Meme-time! As seen all over my Friends List:

Rules:
* Post 3 things you've done that you believe nobody else on your F-list has done.
* If anybody responds with "I've done that," add another thing.
* Encourage your friends to paste this into their own journal to list the unique things they've done.

1. Done hair and makeup for the original line-up of Alice n' Chains before various shows.

2. Stood on the side of the stage as the Sisters of Mercy performed "Dominion/Mother Russia".

3. Took a photo of Ray Bradbury holding my beloved clovisdvlbunny.

I will be avoiding the outdoors again today. I hope all of you watching or marching in the Pride parade today have a wonderful time, and drink LOTS of water.

So what you're saying is that I should call and nag you some Saturday evening? I think that can be arranged ...

You could probably get us both to dress up and go out with warning.

I'd be there in a heartbeat if I was in Seattle *cry*

But Dany=stuck in San Francisco.....and that silly TARDIS idea is limited to some show about doctors ;)

If even you can go out on a hot night, so can the rest of the delicate flowers of the Northwest. I guess that makes me a jungle vine.

Let them wear lighter fabrics and fishnets.

Hee! It was at the Seattle stop on the last tour. The very ditzy and inept waitress carted me up there to apologize for constantly screwing up my table's orders.

Saturday nights are hard - conflicting things I want to do and generally not enough energy to do more than one... That said - maybe I will ask Ambrose if he'd like to go dancing next weekend...

I find that deeply pleasing - especially since iTunes just shuffled me up Man in a Box.

There was a whole contingent of quite nicely dressed goths in the parade today. I'm not sure what they were representing--no one seemed to have good signage in the parade, sadly...

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

They were representing the Seattle Goth scene. A whole bunch of my friends were in that group. :)

[mearagrrl.livejournal.com]

Well, they looked quite lovely! i enjoyed them!!

[poetry-lady.livejournal.com]

Do you have a link to the venue/night info? I might show up sometime--and I do dress up. :) In my eccentric style, to be sure, but hey! I'm wanting to go dancing...

Wow! O.O

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

I went to high school with them. :)

With Jerry Cantrell and Layne Staley?

Again - wow. O.O

I was a huge fan of the band.
