Lucha VaVOOM and "Monster Mashup!!" San Francisco Halloween Burlesque 2010!

Halloween is popular amongst burlesque fans for many reasons, many of which probably have to do with being encouraged to get dressed up in a unique costume. And this year, there are two shows that are happening on Halloween!

Lucha VaVOOM returns to the Fillmore for a Halloween show featuring a tribute to the Cramps with DJ Sergio Iglesias! If you've never been, the show is a mixture of Lucha Libre wrestling with burlesque and comedy from the ringside announcers. This Sunday, the featured announcer will be Blaine Capatch!

Check out this video to see what you can expect at the Fillmore. Just don't watch it at work, for it is NSFW!




Among the scheduled burlesque performers are Lucy Fur, Ursulina, Lux LaCroix, and Moana Santana. With the international, androgynous hula hoop superstar, Karis!

If you go, just be aware that the wrestlers can get carried away, especially when they fly off the balcony! So make sure that you don't get flattened by a Li'l Chupacabra. That could be very embarrassing for you!

Otherwise, it's a fun and very unique event. Wear a costume, have some drinks, watch the wrestlers and burlesque performers, and laugh at Blaine. You'll not see another show quite like it... until Lucha VaVOOM comes back around next time!

The Fillmore is located at 1805 Geary B0ulevard in San Francisco (map). Tickets are $32.50, and may be purchased in advance (plus $12.20 service fees) at livenation.com via luchavavoom.com. The scheduled time is 8 p.m., so get there early so you can get a good place to stand! General admission is standing room only.
