Crobar, aka the things we do for money

So tomorrow instead of a burlesque show, I'll be gogoing at Crobar.

I like doing this gig. But its a somewhat qualified "like"

Gogoing is by no means the same as doing burlesque. In a lot of ways it is much harder, because you have so much less control (and you dance for so much longer!). You can't tell the dj what to play--so you can end up dancing to songs you have never heard, or that you hate ("Dont you wish your gf was hot like me" comes to mind), and you have to completely hide the fact that you would rather be picking your navel than dancing to that song. You have to look like you are having fun!

On the other hand, it makes it challenging, and therefore interesting. And I think it definitely helps me to be a better performer overall. It is also my main form of exercise.

The crowd at crobar, well, I'm not sure they get it, and that takes away from the fun somewhat. But at least they usually keep their distance, and the management is good about making sure no one screws with us, so its never scary feeling at least.

The other reason I like the gig is that the people I work with are a fun and fabulous group that I always enjoy being around.

Tonight I have no gig. I'm not sure what to do with all these fridays I have off this month--its very odd not to be working every friday. Not bad, but odd. I shouldve gotten tix to see Romeo and Juliet.
