We'll spellirrout.. T.R.I.B.A.L B.E.L.L.Y.D.A.N.C.E.... Traditional bellydance, all that glitters, chocolate cos we is wimmin, MAC, and Black Orchid salih, current affairs (Heat magazine....heehee not really,)anything Turkomen, costuming and designing uz own looks & our nights in the Voodoo Lounge practicing our lines. T:About us? Does that not refer to one person? Well, come to mention it, that's exactly what's happened....Black orchid consists of two Kerazy girlies, who found their ideas and aspirations were coming from the same place....never-never land initially, but it quickly became reality because thats what happens when two kindered tribal spirits come together and entwine and float up to the sky.......don't know what we talking about? We're probably confusing the issue when frankly it's quite simple to explain. If you want something to happen, believe! will happen...go on, pick a venue. M:....Well om where oh where to start... we came together from a mutual love. Not only of triiibal belly dance...With dance in our hearts, fire in our souls and wine in our bellies we'll storm i tells ya, storm! In a nut shell, Orchid lyrical aside, two professional bellydancers, ADORING & SPECIALIZING in Tribal style. Amen sistas.

Bellydancers "Black Orchid" in Nostromo, Dublin
Bellydancers entertain a Corporate Party in Nostromo Restaurant, Dublin's best Private Party venue.
These girls are called "Black Orchid" and are amazing exponents of the art.

Showgirls, Black Orchid on Balcony TV, Black Orchid on reality TV, that really good one with Johnny Depp, and do you know what one
we really hate? ANYTHING with D'mee Moore in, she really sucks! We love Godfather (all three of course) Taxi Driver, Vanilla Sky, Mullholland Drive, lots from the World Cinema section, with a good emphasis on the French, and anything else David Lynch will throw at us!
Television
Inspector Morse, The Sheild, Taggart, Sherlock Holmes (Jeremy Brett) and all the fairy liquid commercials, she always had bellydancers hands) forty coates, wanderly wagon and the wheelies. Oh and bosco, but esp when Angus was in it, he was hot! Him and bosco definalty had the best rapport/ Law and Order S.V.U & The Shield. Never Big Brother unless you talkin' George Orwell.
Too many, too too many cool authors and books out there. We don't do comedy and romance and are saving the Mills & Boon for when we are Old Black Orchid. So for now, anything about the people of the Middle East, their culture and their struggles, the Princess' of Arabia...that sort of thing. And of course Mario Puzzo.

Heroes
Che Guevara, Bricey, Kihara, Batman, Wonderwoman, Bosco and Angus, Cawarra & JP Chenet, Zena, Princess Leah, Yasmina, We love when it's really windy, ZiYi Zhang, Michelle Yeoh, Jack Charlton, Marlon Brando, Martin Scorsese, Black Orchid, Roman Polanski......Emanuelle Seigner.....AMON TOBIN.
Amon Tobin......who else???? Black Orchid at Rouge Rock, @ The Sugar Club, Spring 2008......Come on Scott, we can do this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who I'd like to meet:
First and foremost, Amon Tobin, with a ten piece metric wrench set. Maybe he could turn us into robots, to dance onstage to his sets, in robotic electronic bellydance fashion. Sign us up immediatly Amon. We already have several choreos down anyway brother.
Or if Amon was busy that weekend we could walk into Pravda and well waddya know.. sitting at the bar, getting annoyed cos we late again is Johnny Depp (for Mags) in pirate rags and Al Pacino (for Tiger) straight from Godfather 2. That would involve time travel but our fantasies know no borders.

Just got a call from a friend, they said they lost an angel.. Shhh, I didn't tell them where you were, because I wanted to keep you forever :) Send this to all of your True Friends including me if I am one. I sent an angel to watch over you last night, but it came back. I asked, "Why?"... The angel said: "Angels don't watch over angels!" If one day you feel like crying, call me. I don't promise that I will make you laugh, but I can cry with you. If one day you want to run away, don't be afraid to call me. I don't promise to ask you to stop, but I can run with you. If one day you don't want to listen to anyone, call me. I promise to be there for you but also promise to remain quiet. But one day if you call and there is no answer, come fast to see me. Perhaps I need you. Send this to all your friends, no matter how often you talk or how close you are and send it to the person who sent it to you. Let old friends know you haven't forgotten them, and tell new friends you never will. Remember, everyone needs a friend. Twenty angels are IN Your World. Ten of them are sleeping. Nine are playing.
Friends - please spread the word urgently Tell your friends to Camp Out For Peace at Charleville Castle Ireland From May 29th to June 1st 2009 xx Contact Us - info@charlevillecastle.com Website: http://www.questpeace.net
