Nashville. Lusty, and tough...with a wink.

For the last few years or so, I've always wanted to see the fun Panty Raid! Dames burlesque show whenever it performed in my native Nashville. Since I heard of them, I've probably had ten to fifteen opportunities and have not been able to make it out once. Whether it be work schedule or the "no mon, no fun" excuse, it just hasn't seemed meant to be.

Well, here comes another opportunity. In fact, Nashville is on their schedule a few times in the next month or two.

• 3/15 @ Play - Panty Raid! Dames with Kicky LaRue and Sideshow Bennie. (Methinks this could be the sexiest Ides of March yet!)
• 4/06 @ Mercy Lounge - Panty Raid! Dames with Southern Culture on the Skids
• 4/07 @ Tennessee State Fairgrounds - Panty Raid! Dames "jeerleading" for The Nashville Rollergirls
• 4/21 @ Mercy Lounge - PANTY RAID!'s TOTALLY 80's 4th Annual TEASE-A-THON & BIRTHDAY BASH!
  Starring from San Francisco- The World's ONLY Pogo Stick Striptease artist ROKY ROULETTE!!!
  Also appearing Kicky La Rue, Frankie Apple, GYPSYVILLE, SideShow Bennie and all the PANTY RAID! girls and boys!
• 6/14 - 6/17 @ Bonnaroo

Well, that's quite the nice list of shows above. Of course, the one that looks to be the most entertaining is near the end. The April 21st birthday bash appears to be well worth whatever price they're charging. So...

Skip the early shows on purpose so go to the later one, risking something coming up and not seeing them at all? Or spend the bucks for the earliest opportunity, knowing that if something comes up and I can't go, at least there will be another chance coming up soon after.
