Night of the Sistah

Thursday was the annual Helsinki Night of the Arts, and we decided it was time to get some fresh air with Milla. We went shopping together on Tuesday, and ended up buying identical tops and skirts. So it was gonna be Night of the Sistah.

What makes a girl happy?

Venue was the usual dtm, and it was gonna be Les Femmes drag show. The show was fabulous! I'm not a connoisseur of drag shows but I've been in dance show/performance business for last 10+ years and I can tell when I see a good show. Les Femmes is an ultra-famous drag group originating from early '90, many performers ended up all around Europe, some spent couple years performing in L.A. I guess they must be the stunning drag queens Stephanie was refering to in Jo's blog entry.

Again it was a threesome party - me, Milla and Mila dancing, drinking & chatting. Johanna and Asta whom we met at last week's coffee night were also there. We had fabulous talks with some gg girls, I think I fell in love with a very very cute naughty stewardess.. It's funny so many people approach me when I'm dressed, not quite so when I'm out as a boy. The place was sizzling with non-regular people (because of the big party night) and the atmosphere was exceptionally good.

Actually poor Milla was driving, so no drinking for her, and working the very next day - we got to sleep at 5 am...

Yes, unfortunately the artistic level has dropped years ago as it grew much much bigger, and nowadays it's more about bars and general going about town and teenager boozing.
