Other burlesque performers and patrons of the arts. Pin up models with which to trade stories, gals who like to bake in high heels and corsets, waist trainers, marathon runners, sassy ladies and dandies who are lions.
I adore tango music. I largely blame my friend Melanie for this. I also love Gothic Americana such as The Dead Brothers, The Reverend Glasseye, Munly and the Lee Lewis Harlots, and the Legendary Shack Shakers. s-Careoline is the cause of this.I have a soft spot for anything jazzy that a girl can do a little bump and grind to, but some more modern music I enjoy is more industrial/new wave. A girl can never shake off her goth roots, can she?I also dig Big John Bate and the Voodoo Dollz. In a big way. So much so that I perform with them as part of the live show. I like the music THAT much.
Horror. Everything from Susperia to Kill, Baby, Kill. I like gore, zombies, and talking skeletons.Musicals ~ Anything written by Mae West is a hit in my mind, but Moulin Rouge is a given favorite. I also love Guys and Dolls and Little Shop Of Horrors. A people-eating plant? How can you not love it?
Weeds, Mystery! (presented by Diana Rigg), Antiques Roadshow, Addams Family, The Grimm Adventures Of Billy And Mandy
Anything on the printed page, although I love Warren Ellis, Poppy Z. Brite, Penny Birch, Frank Miller, Minette Walters, and Martha Grimes.
My mom, grandmother and every woman who has led an unconventional life and been proud of it.
