THANK YOU, VEGAS!
Thank You for making the 2008 “Cocktails & Cheesecake
Party” such an amazing success!
Wow! What a party it was. A big thank you to everyone who came out to
our big Cocktails and Cheesecake Party at the Art Bar in Las Vegas. It
was a swinging crowd with tons of pretty girls, photographers, and a video
crew or two. I even saw a few old Java's Bachelor Pad Exotic World Tour
t-shirts in the crowd!
First of all, I have to say thank you to my wonderful co-hosts Kay
O'Hara and Gigi Valiant. They make putting on these
parties so much fun.
We had seven wonderful burlesque performers who just knocked the crowd
over--Betsey Bosen, Bunny Bravo, Lolita
Haze, Veronica Lashe, Ravenna Black,
Kalani Kokonuts, and Ava Garter. Thank you,
gals! I'm glad I had a front-row seat (and even an on-stage seat!) for
your acts!
Also thanks to Second Life Entertainment for setting up
an amazing sound and light rig. And thanks to DJ Goo Goo Muck
for keeping the party going after the burlesque performances. Thanks to
Jesse, Larry, and all the folks at the Art Bar for their help keeping the
cocktails flowing.
And I can't forget our sponsors: BowlingShirt.com, CruisinUSA.com,
The Burlesque Hall of Fame, Secrets In Lace,
Bad Attitude Boutique, Badland Beads, The
Atomic Age Alliance, Sheer Miracle, HonkItUp.com,
and Mark K. Hollinger Photography. Thank you for the swag
for the tables and the great door prizes!
Did you see all the great people in the crowd? Bachelor Pad Magazine
cover girls Heidi Van Horne and Sabina Kelley
were in appearance. (Of course Kay, Betsey, and Ava--all who have been
in the magazine were also around signing copies for people.) Cheesecake
Queen 8 Asia DeVinyl was on hand as well as more pin-up and
burlesque girls than I could count.
The swinging band Spy-Fi were there with legendary James
Bond guitarist Vick Flick to promote the brand-new album
of their's called "Black Tie Spy." (Which features Kay on the cover!) Those
who got the bar early were able to hear selections from the cool new cd.
The folks from the Burlesque Podcast were there too taping
future shows.
All and all, it was an amazing evening. Thanks again to everyone who
came out and make the Vegas launch of Bachelor Pad Magazine
such a success. For those who didn't make it, better mark your calendars
now for 2009's Cocktails and Cheesecake Party!
