We have Fire, Feathers, Garters, and Lace... and Several Women... You'll Want to embrace. ;) Save the date and Step Right Up! Don't Be Shy, The Memphis Belles Carnivale has arrived!! We invite you to be Dazzled by our Burlesque Beauties and Wowed by our Sultry Sideshow - July 18th at The Hi-Tone!!
TEASER: The Belles have something up their garters!
Hey buuud! I was about to call Lori and Jared and re-read the invite and saw it was April 4th. Bummer, I had April 11th in my head. Did you have fun? We're the old folks now!
Most of you Memphis folks know and love our good buddy Don Perry, photographer extraordinaire. Well, next Friday, 2/27, Don will be having a photo show at the Hi-Tone, and we'll be playing. I think the doors will open around 8 and you can come and check out Don's amazing pics, and even buy some of it. Don is doing really great work around town, documenting the music scene and the city of Memphis itself.
As usual, there's no opener. We'll start up around 10-ish, but get there before that so you can enjoy Don's photos without a couple of Fenders squawling in your ears.
The cover is - you guessed it - five bucks. See ya there!
