Burlesque, ladies, fire, alcohol.... What's not to like?!?!?!


My shoulder is finally starting to feel better, so I decided to start getting out again. The Brass Rail, in Hillcrest is host to a monthly show: The House of Pink Boombox! monthly review. Hosted by the always great Xanadu Rocketship.

Head Mistress Lilly Holiday started off the night in a formal looking blue ball gown with red opera gloves (reminiscent of a Disney princess), slowly and seductively bearing all to the rhythm of the music the excellent JoshTheBear, DJ at The Brass Rail was pumping out.


Next up was the beautiful Elena playing with swords and fire! With a mixture of belly dancing, sword play, and fire dancing (Tribal Fire Dance), she can hypnotize you, cut you and burn you all at the same time! All while staring at her gyrate like a snake...


Next up was a solo performance by the ultra talented Anna Yanushkevich. Showing what sultry is all about. Well balanced would be a complete understatement watching her contort, flex, while her paused stasis on a lonely fold up chair was mesmerizing.


Next, a burlesque performance by San Von Zombie, takes you back to the old time prohibition era speakeasy. Sensual, her measured disrobing, piece by piece... Slinky... Smokey (if a dance can be smokey, and I mean that in the best way possible).


Next was the ladies of Bete Noir, of Sarah Saraphim Edgar and Avarra LaRoux Ponto, dancing with sharp objects. Avarra apparently has the nickname, "The Snake", it's quite apparent that she EARNED that name as she winds her way across the floor with sword in hand. Her sword carrying counterpart Saraphim dancing Ying to The Snake's Yang. You have to see them perform to appreciate the delicate harmony of point/counterpoint. 


After a bit of Xanadu Rocketship's grifting, back out was the head Mistress, Lilly Holiday sexily clad in a gorgeous full length gown. Head adorned with a beautiful plumage of a feathery hat. She danced a swing style dance, sexy, shaking, vibrating, exhilarating.


Saraphim, solo, next to dazzle with a hula-hoop. Round and round, the hoop never stops, her body, slinking in a hypnotic, rhythmic motion, keeps the hoops attention and yours!


San Von Zombie, far from a glissade, she swings and sways her hips up to the stage, clad in what appears to be a full length black and silver corseted style dress. But wait... She's not gonna show you everything all at once... Are you crazy?


One more slither for The Snake, this time, a solo performance art dance. Watch her slither, slink, slide.


Lilly, her final dance of the night. She skips the nice full length numbers, instead deciding to go with a corset, a sheer wrap style skirt and not much else... This is what we're here for...


Last, yet far from least... Anna and Elena, in a Tribal Fire dance, spellbinding, sensual, loving, and fierce.


The night, was electric, the Pink Boombox squad spanked and slapped it out of the park. I highly recommend taking in one of their shows. They will be performing monthly at The Brass Rail, don't miss it!
