Happy Turkey Day!

So, another month fast forward on the recording... November 28th, 3PM, your usual suspects, your usual place. The Minxettes celebrate Thanksgiving Lady Garden Style. - Well to be honest, there was no theme requirement. :P

Again, please send me IMs to fill the blanks on the songs.. I dont have the song list of the night and it's been too long unfortunately to really remember.. :(

Opening this night was yet again our very fantastic Babypea von Phoenix, with her version of what "Country" should look like. Who needs line-dancing, anyhow, unless it's multiples of those? ;)

My Little Pony

Gracing the stage next this night was Kismet. Leave it to her to make the most simple decor rock to no end. This was a fantastic stage design paired with very vintage kitty style and falling clothes. Unfortunately I messed up the other pictures with either funky poses or floating alpha parts of the body... so, next time, new try! ;)

Hello Kitty!
 Thanks for bringing this on stage, Kis! So happy to have you! <3

For our next curtain of the night Ellen came back from a long pause to show us what's going on in the library these days while everybody else uses Wikipedia... Probably better that the kids do research at home with their computers now.... :D

"What do you mean 'Shades of Gray' is no literature?!"
[just a few more convincing arguments later...]
Thanks for joining us this evening, Ellen, great to see some of the old Minxettes still around <3

Many dead butterflies later (you try to swat them when the nervousness gets too crazy ya know?) it was my own turn.. With "The Sweet Escape" from Gwen Stefani I did just exactly that... escape, and be sweet... or something like that. I missed the jail scene at the beginning so well.. there was a jail!

Finally out! The cake wasnt a lie!
Skittles and candy apples...


Now then finally one very thorough Minxette who took the season serious and got straight to turkey business - Miss SexyS Quintessa. I can't even start to describe how hard I laughed (and still am) when seeing this. Thanks so much for your creativity and uniqueness, S, We're truely happy to have you and if you try to go anywhere we'll get Ellen's very useful library closet back out..... Just saying!

So about this holiday...
Well that fork missed! and that knife too.. Ouch! The tomatoe scored... WTF
 And last but most definitely not least Sierra brought us some very classy almost James Bond glamor... I am still grumpy at my cat for turning off the computer right when she started. *throws fist in air and hides the cat treats* Luckily everything booted back up fast enough to at least catch some of the end at at least treat you with some of the eye-candy she brought to stage!

Something's going on there... let's check that out!!
Worthwhile to sit on the roof all night when you get those sights...

Seriously, all of you, THANKS SO MUCH for all the effort and love you bring to Lady Garden. It wouldnt be the same without your creativity and pure genius and I most definitely wouldnt want to tear my hair out for chasing after songnotecards if it wasnt for you :D

CHOPSY, if you're out there and perving at this from time to time, we frikken miss you and you really need to get back soon!

Many love and kisses!!

The Night of Ghouls, Ghosts and Witches...

I think looking at the current date all left for me to do is claim the ghosts have taken me after Halloween show and I just now got freed again.... does that work as an excuse? 

They spit me back out with all the pictures I took, too, so here we go with a quick recap on Halloween 2014 and, as usual, I'll try to work my way up to current date. I foresee christmas pictures on easter again... history repeating! But, you got your pics, at last ;) 

Halloween show was opened with Diawa's "Wicked Things", and if you havent seen the set before, you missed out. A lovely duette in a spooky forest, with flashing trees and dancing plant creatures, particle magic and the usual choreography-WOW only a Diawa can do.. Thanks for adding this!

Diawa controls all wicked things!

Next up came Babypea with her absolutely stunning "Witchy Woman" act. Pictures really dont do it justice, cause the stage was a fantastic 3d experience. And who could resist a stripping Babypea on top of that...
Babypea rocks the cosmos. A truely witchy woman!
Following the dance above the cosmos we moved back down to earth, just in your favorite neighborhood next door with the girls from the LGC Cheersquad and your favorite underwear hot dude on the ad board. Gal and Rug went for a midnight dance to Rosemay Clooney's "I aint got no body" and it wasnt long until the dead came to join them..

Gimme an L! Gimme a G! Gimme a C!

The next stage set up didnt promise all too good even with closed curtains.. the scenery got dark... fear lay in the air.. with a scent of roasted BBQ mingeling into the mix.... Should we be concerned? Most likely.. cause SexyS was about to hit the stage. 

Grill and BBQ didnt lift the moods with this ominous curtain...
And as was to be expected, that wasn't your standard grilled chicken.. we've been missing dancers ever since, bless their souls.

Evil comes your way...


LGC got renamed to "High Canibal-esque Showhouse", thanks to S
Luckily no further bodies vanished (although some audience members seemed strangely stuffed after the set....) and the mood was lightened again with our next curtain for Kismet - clickety-clack, the skelletons danced, and they did it so well. This really made me laugh, too bad you can't capture animated textures on picture, because these ones were really brilliant and added a fun touch to her song choice "Spooky Scary Skeletons"!

Stepping class with Kismet - click-clack left, click-clack right, bones swing, rinse, repeat!

Even the caskets opened after that performance to applaud and clap!
 Ga-Leee-La delighted us right after with the full Minxette troupe and Elvira's "Monster Mash" - what a brilliant set! Sexy devils mingled with all sorts of black and white vintage movie creatures.. hard to describe, but the Mistress of move-things-around-gadgets did it again! Awesome set, Gal!
Sierra, Chandra, Rug, Gal, Kismet, Diawa, SexyS
Oh noes.. they are moving towards us...... What's about to come!
Dracula joined the ranks as our newest MinxMuffins...
Eventually it was time to get my own spooky ass on stage, so all the fabric nightmares are made of came together for Ayria's dark and hypnotic-rythmic "Recoil". Paired with darkness reaching from underneath to pull the creatures above in their realm and the eyes that see everything..

Evil is everywhere, and it has an eye on you!
Lady Garden got some grabby-voyeuristic additions......
The club turned into a spooky forest ready to snatch another one or two of the audience..
 Next up was Rina taking you to a private dance at Fangtasia.. Speak about truth in advertising.. ;)


One does wonder if this lucky dude was as lucky as it would appear.. or just another soon-to-be-missing visitor.
Last but not least this very spooky closing number of Mistress of Evil Ceremony, "The Shredded", Babypea.. ;) She brought us a last scare of ghosts, ghouls and demons, witches and of course the bloody one-of-a-kind SexyS creature.. I think that one wasnt even in the myth books yet...


Rotten was never so sexy!
Prepare to be missing another 3 or 4 audience members..... 

As per usual, this has been an off-the-charts fantastic show, girls! Thanks so much for all the effort you put in, and thanks to all our returning patrons who support our dancers with their lindenlove and fill the place with life. We wouldnt be here without you, and we truely hope we'll spend a lot of time in the future with you still!

Love and Kisses from all the Minxettes!

Can't keep us down!

It's been quite some time since my last post. Unfortuantely we've run into some unforseen extended summer break, so there was quite a bit to sort out in the past months. Long things short: Chopsy has gone MIA and we've been quite shaken on what to do with the club and tier, so eventually we came to the conclusion to just keep it running to the best we can. More on that later, eventually.

However, here's finally the pictures of our first "after-pause" show on October 3rd! Please forgive me, I can't find the song lists anymore so this post is a slow-and-steady retrieval of the songs  everybody used. Will keep it updated as they trickle in, very sorry for that!

Opening up was Diawa with this very Circus-esque number for "The Beautiful People" by Marilyn Manson - and flawless choreo, as ever.

You can run, but you can't hide!
Next up was BabyPea - what started all black and white was soon to pop out of the screen into a classy red piece of burlesque treasure.  Thanks so much for the eye-candy, Miss von Phoenix! :)

Now what's that going to be?
Yummy BabyPeas!
Following up were Gal and Rug with their tantalizing ribbon particles to "True Colors" - I am super happy you girls did this one again, it's giving me goose bumps every time I see it!!

Soft pinks this time!
Nothing like bombing the audience with colors - wheeeeeee!
Next up was Rina with Rob Zombie's "Pussy Liquore" (it does help when the set tells you what song it was).
There comes the fog
Add caption
Followed up by SexyS "The Kitty" Quintessa - damn, woman, what a stage!! This has been beyond amazing. The song was something about kitties.. go figure. I could hum you the tune but don't nail me down on trying to recall who sang it... *hides* I'll promise, I'll do better on the next post again.

Meow!
Chase the Kitty!
Does this need any words, really?
Eventually I had to move my own pixely ass up to stage. This was a revamped set from earlier the past year(s), "Dilruba", taking you along for a bit of mythology. Everything was of course fancier this time, with more movement (yay movers!) and more particles and more attachments (yay gacha curse).

Kali's Dance

And then there was of course my lovely fire demons! Thanks to Karissa, Diawa and Jena for jumping in the flames for me!

Into the Depths of the Fire Pits.....
Closing the Show was BabyPea once more with this very Jazz-Inspired group number. Thanks for adding it, Baby, the stage looked amazing and what a flashy way to end an evening!

Lean back, honey, it's after work party time!

I would like to give my very very special thanks to all who performed tonight, and the very generous donations you all gave towards LGC tier.

We do hope that we can continue to keep LGC open with all of your help, so thanks again for coming to watch the shows and your much appreciated tips, and most of all, you fanstastic bunch of Minxettes for performing and staying true to LGC <3

Love and Kisses,
Chandra
