September 11, 2004 (Events Up The Wazoo)
I impersonate a clothes-hanger during a performance of "Mera Naam Chin Chin Chu." It's a song about being Chinese, sung in Hindi, done in a Bavarian polka style.
Since we were doing all non-English songs, here's a shot from another Hindi number; my recreation of Helen's "Baithe Hain Kya" from "Jewel Thief."
Morgan and I pose with Michelle DuBarry, Canadian drag icon and totally sweet broad!
I do some "Hidden Hostessing," the only option when you need to say a few words but you don't want to give away your outfit.
Looking nothing whatsoever like Agnetha Fältskog, I perform her version of "SOS" på svenska.
And here are the performers from the night! It was great to get a chance to do some non-English numbers. Special thanks to Craig for these photos!
During our most-recent "Drag Yer Ass Out" show, we enjoyed some relatively unorthodox change facilities! Here's my little corner.
The best thing about my corner of the change room was that it came equipped with a fingernail sharpener!
When I wax my body, I prefer to do it in the old-fashioned way.
Chris and I have a quick cuddle before the show...right next to the vacuum cleaner, I might add. So Chris, when am I gonna see you on a stage again, huh?
I thought of this as the "Date Rape Shelf," a little platform where you leave your drinks when you go into the bathroom. Safe!
This woman has absolutely the COOLEST purse I have ever seen...and she turned out to be darn cool herself!
When I found out that cigarettes "hurt babies," I realized there was a good reason for smoking after all!
Anybody who thinks that women are just a bunch of sensitive, delicate, sweet-smelling flowers needs to read the graffiti in the Bomb Shelter bathrooms. Shocking!
As we DJ'd during Monte Carlo Night, part of our audience was a group of music-loving Betta fish. They didn't request anything, but they didn't explode either.
I relax near the flowers at the end of the night with Rodica and Chris. Thanks for organizing such a great event, Mr. Abbott!
September 4, 2004 (Crashing Parties)
I try on a brand-new Pride hat in our hotel room, courtesy of a curtain and an extremely vigorous air conditioner!
The best part about our room at the International Conference Centre were the incredibly low light switches, which I am attempting to use here.
Without a doubt, the "Coolest Dog Of Toronto Pride" award went to Ally! I don't know what sort of animal she is but she looks calm, cool, and mercifully featherless.
While resting our weary feet at Woody's, Victoria, Annie and I pose for a quick photo taken by my left hand.
After years of searching, I finally meet another Muffy! She's from Australia, though, so we'll probably never meet again (outside of the Billabong, at least).
