I just found out that Macworld has nothing to do really with Macintosh/Apple etc. It's a private company that puts on big conventions. I'm sure the fathers of Apple would NEVER ban the House of Domination!

We hope you can join us tonight at CBGB DOWNSTAIRS LOUNGE AT THE GALLERY for SHE-DEVILS IN HIGH HEELS. We're delighted to present
FIVE of your favorite Domination legends - MARTI, JESSICA RABBIT, DOLLY, ELIZA and LILY, along with DEE FINLEY and the Jackie debut of SLANTY EYED MAMA, Kate Riggs' amazing Asianatrix spoken word
troupe.

We urge you to take advantage of the reduced web printout at
http://www.houseofdomination.org/annuals/shedevil.html for $10
admission all night.

Also, as always, all past and present House of D. members not performing are of course our guests!
Always love to see Annabel, Mad Dawg, Betty, Gloryhole, Brown Bettie et al on these nights.
In answer to question above, Kym Domination lives in Minnesota (or is it Wisconsin) now and is still GORGEOUS! She is raising the first Domination spawn, a boy I believe.

This will be our last summer event at the beloved CB's space, so we really hope you can make it. After tonight, JACKIE 60 FURTHER returns there Saturday, September 21 and again for HALLOWEEN.

Sitting in the back room ... wedged between my make-up mirror and the ever-glowing monitor ... putting swipes, dashes and dots of shadow on my eyes in anticipation of high glamour and sweating it all off in a few short hours with the rest of the over-heated She-Devils ... a newsflash comes running down the hall in the form of my naked and hairy boyfriend telling me the electricity has gone off in parts of lower manhattan ...

I smile -- sometimes I just can't help myself -- when I see a grown, unclothed man (just starting to put on a bit of eye liner as well!) in a panic that he won't be able to go dancing, I just get distracted.

Oh, what is he saying? Oh, the lights? Out? Where? Oh my!! Will it be a night of She-Devils in High Heels -- In the dark? -- Wonder who I'd trip and meet that way? ...

------------------------------------------------
I just had Mr. Nature call CBs Gallery ... thankfully the outage has not effected the venue.
See you all tonight.

The East Village seems fine - all the outages are West of Broadway.

See you tonight!

Well despite the Village in blackout, news warnings to stay out of the area and everything else - last night was a blast and perhaps the most Jackie of all the Jackie 60 Further events to date!

It is such a great feeling to see the new vibe emerging down there, and the mix of JC and legend, Top Girl and Art John that has been marking the crowd in the Jackie/CB's parties since we began at Halloween. Was especially thrilled to see Slanty Eyed Mama tear down the house, as I knew they would when I first spotted them at this year's Black and Blue Ball.

Was lovely to see so many of the affiliated houses come out to pay respects to House of D as well, including the many representatives of Arena, the Dungeon of Mistress Angel Stern, the house of Demask, and of course Jackie's own Madame Cole de Sade of Gomorrah/ZeroTolerance.

And so many tails, horns, devil masks and the like! These parties have been proving what we've known all along - that our crowd, or those who are about to join it - LOVE to be able to dress up as long as they will be safe and appreciated, as they certainly are.

From a piece of mail on the subject, today:

We really look forward to September 21, our next Jackie 60 FURTHER, and promise something very special to begin our 13th season. And Donna - we expect the same from you!

My nemesis Mr. RUGMAN was there as advertised?

Do tell..

more shedevilish pics

Mod's note: Jade I hope you don't mind that I changed your pic to one in which I didn't resemble Orson Welles quite so much. Great pics and your speed always astounds me!

Wow!

Thanks, Mommy for booking the Shiny Mamas! A treat indeed! Their lyrics are still going around my head!

Beautiful crowd, dressed hot enough to burn in hell! Fab pics, Jade--mine will take awhile but I'll be sure to relinquish copies.

Felt like home--just great to see everyone!

shiny mamas?
i must've gotten there too late for that.

great party... have to say i was wishy-washy about going out until i zipped up those 6" silver boots. once i walked in, though... hel-LO! i got that jackie feelin'...

and the MUSIC!!!!! daddy and sammy jo were goin' at it like demons!!

The name of the troupe/band is Slanty Eyed Mama.

Shiny Mama is a totally different band. Just clarifying because I want Kate Rigg, Lyris and all the Slanty Eyed Mamas to get their rightful props!

Chi Chi was raving about them after the Black & Blue Ball. She wasn't kidding. They were fab!

I like to get things up before they fall into the distant past - quick is the pace in Jadeworld!

Chi Chi, I chose that for the interplay with hatches and your disarming smile - but it is an Empress' prerogative...:)

Shiny Mama's? Didn't one of them used to be in the Indigo Girls?

it was so wonderful to see you and so many of the other people the other nite!! Everyone looked smashing!!

I only made it to Jackie 60 a few times in the early/mid/late ninties, with my club-working comrades of that era (Onyx, Ethemious Konstantine, Jackie Riviera, Girlina, Gerald Loud, Andre Michel -- the whole Make-up Room/Sound Factory lot of us).

To me (an impressionable young girl with a luminous imagination), Jackie 60 was, at the time, this dark and mysterious place we would occasionally wind up at in the meat-packing district (usually very late in the morning) because it "had scandals, my dahling, fierce scandals, ki-ki-ing and carrying-on ..." It was, in that sense, very much a rich treat only to be had occasionally, like Christmas fudge, and savored for the days to come.

It has only been the last few years, in frequenting Click and Drag regularly, that I have begun to get to know many of you. But, what magnificence and camaraderie the Jackie 60 crowd still maintains, exudes and instigates!!

--Rose Royale, I especially enjoyed seeing you! You look amazing!!! I so miss visiting with you (whilst cocktailing at Mother) such a pillar of style and grace ... not easily forgotten and always an inspiration.

--Great pics thus far!!

It takes one to know one--thanks Tonya--it's intended to give pleasure and you make it worthwhile--just the sight of you, darling, from the first time I saw you in the Versailles Room!
First and foremost beauty within and then, and only then beauty outside-you've got it all!

"SLANTY Eyed Mama" Yeah! Sorry girls! Empress said you deserve all the props in the world, and I couldn't agree more. Once again gratitude to Mommy for booking this genius group!

You're originals! So forward in style and attitude--it was like seeing my unconcious thoughts reveal themselves in real time! I can't say enough!
