NY Downtown Clown Revue

As Lady Luck would have it, the entire line-up this month was women at the NY Downtown Clown Revue! We couldn't quite convince Christopher Lueck to don a dress for the occasion.
Brenn Swanson, Butt Kapinski, Amanda Crockett and the lovely stagehand Aquarium (and, of course, Bony Lil) brought the house down.

Jim Moore at vaudevisuals.com posted a blog with a bunch of fine pictures of the evening.

These are from that.

It refers to what some fellas might yell out a car window at some ladies. or rather. it is something they would request to see. Tasmania is shaped like this. So are female nether regions, in their 'nature state'. Thus the dance track you see before you.

This was my first time back working with Michael Pope and Amanda Palmer on a video since the days of Coin Op, Girl Anachronism, Sing and the Paradise DVD. I ended up shopping for twinkly things, consulting on merkin logistics, dressing an evolving cast of dancers and extras, pulling some scenic painting out of my bum the day of and doing some set dressing.

The video has an exclusive on Spin Magazine. Go check it out.

Here is the amazing crew:
