What is VivaLaGlam I hear you say?.....
Well... where do we begin...
*WARNING* lots of babbling at this point.. just scroll down for pictures if you cant be arsed to read it..
Back in my glory days in SL, I ran a Burlesque theatre called the Lady Garden Cabaret, with THE most amazing troupe of ladies I could ever have hoped to find to do it with, every month we would build spectacular shows and utterly wow folks, it was amazing!
Was I always a marauding showpony?... God no...
This passion for performing Burlesque style shows was ignited when I stumbled across this little place called Ellie's in SL one all nighter, on a region called... VivaLaGlam..
It had a plethora of other venues they used for differently themed shows through the week, sadly they were on soooo late for me, but I'd stay awake and attend as I was hooked, utterly hooked on what they did! Those girls... man... to this day my heroes in SL are still Slappy Doobie and her crew! So.. in hommage and to keep the memories alive I decided to name my home in OSGrid after them.
I soooooo wanted to apply to do the shows with them, but I was fangirling and starstruck when there so I doubt I would of been able to function properly had they accepted me.
I started planning what I'd create if I ever did a show to see if I could just do what they did as well, at the time I'd just started a club with a freind, so we had a spot I could tinker with so I just built props and gadgets I could use.
Then one day I met Shea.. her and I just became this force of nature with ideas and things we could do, and she convinced me to just give it a go sometime, like.. "Just do a fucking show!"... I thought she was crazy!
Somehow though, these girls kept finding us who all had this same idea and passion for performing, or our enthusiasm just got them fired up or something I dont even know! They came to be strippers.. but became Minxettes instead, and the LGC Burlesque Bustle was born wayyyyy back then...
Those were some amazing years, the skills.. make a grown man weep! I tell ya...
The cherry on my cake though was having Slappy grace MY stage for one of the last shows I had there before leaving... MY STAGE! I was in heaven..
So I'll stop waffling on about nostalgia and shit as Im sure your bored shitless..
VivaLaGlam is my playground basically, Its a shady, seedy little back alley full of delights.
Home to sooooo many places and things to do.. its like the Mary Poppins bag of OSgrid!
Where to start with this mess...oh boy..
Let me introduce the Empire Lounge...
This Goddess of gin joints! The palace of Pussy parlors! The She-Ra of strip clubs!.... work with me here... The stage here will be the home to any shows that eventually are born, lots of work currently in progress, just a matter of finding people with that same burning desire to flash their ass as I do to hopefully form a crazy troupe in OSGrid and bring forth the splendor :)
Currently this is set up as a casual strip lounge, complete with switching stage props, lots of working fucktoys and poles etc for those in need. I know.. classy right.. at least you know shit will be wiped clean first eh..
Then we have the little perverted sister to the lounge.. Monroes Bar..This came about from my love of the old Lars bar in SL, my second home
when i was not working, god ..I spent many a crazy night in that
place...
to be continued :)
