San Francisco area burlesque for December 29, 2009 to January 4, 2010

To start off the new year, I'll be changing the week to start on Tuesdays. I've noticed that there aren't many shows on Tuesday, and Kingfish has been posting the following Monday's Hubba Hubba Revue show at the Uptown on Tuesdays, so this new schedule seems to make more sense.

So the first shows will be this Thursday and are New Year's Eve shows! In Sausalito, the Twilight Vixen Revue will be performing at a show with Olivia Travel and Betty's List at Ondine. If you haven't made reservations, though, the website says they are sold out. In San Francisco though, the Hot Pink Feathers will be performing with the Carmen Milagro Band at a benefit for the Mission Language and Vocational School and Culinary Academy at the Florida Street Cafe. Get your tickets now at www.partyatfloridastreetcafe.com before they sell out!

The first show of 2010 will belong to First Friday Follies at the Stork Club in Oakland. It'll be a special show, because it'll be a Bowie-themed show, and it'll be emcee Margaret France's birthday! Also, remember that Red Hots Burlesque is on hiatus until January 8, because El Rio is closed for the holiday.

Saturday will feature the first Burlesque n' Brass of 2010 with Blue Bone Express and Hot Pink Feathers at Cafe Van Kleef in Oakland.

Then the next Monday will feature Hubba Hubba Revue at the Uptown Club in Oakland with Flame Cynders, Cherry Contrary, and Josie Starre! What a way to start 2010! :-D
