We started off with Rosado without any introduction, which was nice, because the song in itself is so... Good! The drums at the start - I just love it, it makes me all excited. It worked well, despite the stage being quite shallow.
Magduschka had her work cut out for her with the initial introduction, since Pepper had a direct change AND her shimmy belt decided to dig its heels in and prolong the change. It worked out fine, but Madame M was not loving it...
As soon as she got her costume on properly, Pepper did her fast paced Switchblade routine while some of us got changed for Minnie.
Minnie the Moocher also went well, and Georgettes fancy moustasche-pasties were much appreciated.
Contessa brought our whiny glitter girl in under gun-point and after making her pick up our things she proceeded to perform her Mambo Italiano while the rest of us changed for Pussies.
Miss D made her solo debut as a Kitten with her Cellblock routine, much to the audiences delight! Marvellous! She's a real diamond, that's for sure.
We finished the set with our awardwinning Pussies on Parade routine, and got roaring ovations.
You'll find some showphotos here.
Back to the dressingroom, sorting out the costumes with two most unfortunate MIA's - one heartshaped tassel and one entire bra which is a tragic loss. Still hoping they'll resurface.
I walked the stage area with a tech guy after Mustasch played their set and he helped me search with a flashlight. We found nothing but he assured me that if the things were still there they would be found as the stage was dismantled.
"Great", says clever me. "Well, it's a red and pink bra with satin bows and rhinestones, and..."
"I'm pretty sure we'd suspect anything of that general description to be yours."
Ah. Yes. Well, you never know what those metal blokes might be donning underneath. Right?
Anyways, after packing up, we headed over to Clarion Hotel for the afterparty, had some drinks, danced a bit, behaved silly. I found a pair of 3D-glasses on the floor which really made my evening (although obviously not in a 3D-capacity, but rather in being fun glasses). They played soul and then they played lots of rock so we sang a lot too and played air guitar.
Manager H left early, but Martin, our most dedicated live photographer who had been shooting us in the dressingroom and on stage, came to Clarion and had some drinks with us. We love him, he's Kitten family.
The guys in the band (or bands rather) we're super nice and seemed pleased with our show, and we're all looking forward to Gothenburg next Saturday.
