A bunch of us went to the Bretagne Castle...the heart of Anne Of Bregtangne is there! WOW...I wanted to see that really bad and it was the first thing inside the chateau! Anne of Bregtange was a wonderful woman with a crazy life....she was an EARLY patroness of the ARTS! WE saw many sad things about this port city though...it was based on salty butter biscuits and the slave trade...really intense.......I have never seen anything quite like it and it reall affected me.
Someone had told me about Nantes this way BUT.....so people are making fun of HOW bad my French is.

I went on NANTES TV with Kitty and Roky Roulette today. I sang HOT But Swing.......
Fun fun fun! Roky looked alluring and I was a spazz....as usual dropping feathers and not being prepared....oh having ADD is a curse at times.

There was another little article about me in the paper PIL (tee hee like John Lydon's band.........) It talked about me loving Freddie Mercury and Black Flag! Woo hoo!

www.charlimars.com has more video of the Ilse de Nantes evening!
Oh, we also found a 15th century toilette in the chateaux......Dirty and I used it and our tinkle dropped in the moat....but astually all of my fave photos from that day got lost when we got into a HORRIBLE rainstorm that night........ My clothes aree STILL wet.....strange weather!

Little bun buns were there too....I eas eating a Breton Crepe...the lady who made it said I sounded like a little POUPEE or a crazy little doll.......Oh yeah she was right!

Roky Roulette stole my cute little pink pasties that Inga made me......He took 'em off with his tongue after we had crazy chocolate and bannana CAKE! It was so yum yum and GUILLOME or Billy Bob....that is what I call him cuz I can't speak French yet
brought it up to the stage! SO SWEET!


Well today I felt like I was coming down with a lame ass cold.......I stayed inside ALL day in my little French Apartment hoping my voice would survive the day and the nights show. Jasmine brought me tea , honey and lemon...what a great pal!
The show was FUN and those kooky kids got me some swell birthday presents! I got a puss print "massager" called the temptress...which is HAILARIOUS and a WONDERFUl ukulele book in French that I am DYING over! So cool! Cyril of the Uke club
wrote it. if I could actually get on my email account I would send him and email...OH and we were in French ELLE !!!!!!!

SF Weekly Best of Issue 2007
Best Burlesque
Best Burlesque Revue

The Cantankerous Lollies

Since 1995, the Cantankerous Lollies have been upping the ante on the art of coquetry with their distinctly DIY approach to taking it off. Founded by Harvest Moon, one of the nation's most vaunted showgirls, this troupe of vaudeville hotties spearheaded the West Coast neo-burlesque movement — birthing a panoply of pasty-loving adherents in the process. The great thing about the Lollies is that they're both sexy and riotously funny, replacing gratuitous T&A with entertainment. Whether they're regaling us with Montmartre-style cabarets, synchronized can-can dances, or acrobatic feats with hula hoops and parasols, the Lollies deftly mix hippodrome antics with classic theatre kitsch. And we love them even more because of Suzanne "Kitten on the Keys" Ramsey, an erstwhile Lollie known for her glamour-soaked, satirical piano cabaret. With the ba-ba-boom accompaniment of San Francisco's Famous Burlesque Orchestra, the Lollies are all about the classic tease, which necessitates leaving lots to the imagination — but they're too clever and unpredictable to be mistaken for any old striptease act.

Pandora's Trunk - 1 Year Anniversary!
A bi-monthly eclectic arts showcase & fashion sample sale

Saturday April 28th 1-7pm
free admission - live music - free drinks

http://pandorastrunk.com
Mina Dresden Gallery 312 Valencia @ 14th, San Francisco
Visual Vaudeville & Built Burlesque

"Vaudeville" is thought to come from the french 'voix de
ville', voice of the city... come let us speak to you. We
will tell you a tale of independent artists and designers,
making satirical and sexy statements like the vaudevillians
of old, out of anything they can lay their dirty little
hands on. Our first anniversary is shaping up to be a
blowout party! We have busted our old studio at the seams
and are coming to you from an all new location where the
Mission and SoMa meet.

The event will feature a fashion sample sale, including
local firecrackers Miranda Caroligne, Bad Unkl Sista, Medium
Reality & the inimitable Shannon Riley.

Artist and screenprinter Marshall Adams, who you may know
from his work at Porcelynne, will be there screen printing
his designs live onto a shirt of your own choosing. It
doesn't get any more custom than that!

Local musical bombshell Kitten on the Keys will be there
playing the sexiest instrument known to womankind, and the
smoky-hot Jahmayo will be joining us from LA, guaranteed to
be wearing the tightest pants ever donned by a black man who
wasn't Prince.

Indie designers, producers, and artists will be joining us
with jewelry, photography, paintings, gourmet chocolate,
comic books, paper goods and more, using silks and satins,
leather and feathers, metals precious and base, acrylic
plastic, and resin-coated paper along with the traditional
ribbons and bows to make you beautiful... with teeth.

Visit our website for a frequently updated roster of artists
with pictures and links! Contact us to get involved!

Benefit for Irene McGhee starring Exene Cervenka, Kitten on the Keys, Vinsantos,Ben Fong Torres at the Red Devil Lounge in SF!

Here is what Ben Fong Torres (of Almost Famous ...and he wrote for Rolling Stone) wrote about her situation:

CATCH A FIRE: A dozen or more people may owe their lives to the fact that Free FM (KIFR 106.9) let talk-show host Irene McGee go. As I reported a column ago, McGee was dismissed from her midnight to 2 a.m. Friday show for unspecified reasons. On her first Friday night away from the radio studios in more than a year, she was at work in her apartment in the Western Addition when the electricity went out. Outages were an all-too-common occurrence in the 12-unit building, McGee said. She called the building manager, and when he flipped the circuit switch back on, flames shot out of a wall in McGee's apartment, setting her bed and, in minutes, most of her apartment on fire. It was 1 a.m., and McGee dashed around the building, rousting her neighbors. All of them escaped the flames and smoke, which rendered nine of the apartments uninhabitable. "She's absolutely a hero," said Heather Moon Black, who lives in an adjacent apartment. "Irene left her cat to come and get us first. If she hadn't, it would have been too late for my daughter (8-year-old Exene) and me." It was, in fact, too late for one of McGee's two cats. Star died in her arms, while Sergeant Johnson ran off. Two days after the fire, her second cat was still missing, and McGee appeared to be in shock as she looked through the rubble on Broderick Street and in the blackened shell of her apartment. She grabbed her laptop computer as she fled, she said, but everything else was destroyed. Necklaces were welded together. All her clothes were damaged. So were a new camera and audio recorder she used for her radio work (She continues to do her podcast show, "No One's Listening," Fridays at San Francisco State). Her brother, Bill McGee, a lawyer in Portland, Ore., arrived Sunday morning to lend support. At a nearby cafe, she praised the San Francisco Fire Department for its rapid and compassionate response; one female firefighter, she said, sat with her and offered comfort and assistance. McGee is staying at various friends' homes and slowly accumulating clothes and other necessities. Her grateful neighbor, Black, is helping organize a fundraiser for her at the Red Devil Lounge, with her daughter's godmother, Exene Cervenka, ex- of X, as headliner. A date has yet to be set. Meantime, online contributions can be made via Paypal at www.nooneslistening.org. Through the smoke and depression of the fire, there was one ray of light. Her missing tabby showed up in Black's apartment on Sunday. He suffered some burns but looked OK. "It's a miracle," McGee said, breaking into tears. Moments later, she regained her composure -- and her sense of humor. She'd mused about the irony of it all.

Not a Burlesque show....but a fun trip back in time.....w. Buster Keaton and others!

For the 5th year in a row songstress Kitten on the Keys
pulls out
her flapperiest ditties of the PG-13 nature
and tickles the ivories to help celebrate the
Balboa's Movie Theater's Birthday. This is one of the last old movie houses left in San Francisco-
they have damn good pop corn and an awesome repitoire of films and it is in the Richmond District!

(Some of you may even remember Kitten, the Muddflappers, the Lollies and
the Scenic Sisters producing Sin in Soft Focus at the Balboa last year...in a horrible rainstorm!)

Be sure to check out the pianist Frederick Hodges who wrote the original score for the film! He is a world class pianist and composer!
