Kraving Some Salt?
Well it’s been a HUGE couple of weeks, and I’ve spent more time on stage out of Sydney than in! A couple of weekends ago, my good friend Millie Poppins and I made the trek to NSW wine country to perform at an MS fundraiser in the Hunter Valley. Held at the Lindemans estate, the event boasted a Priscilla theme and we performed to over 250 generous people, willing to part with their cash for a silent auction and an amazing night of mentertainment matched with fabulous food and wine. It was lovely to see some friends there, and we made sure to stop at plenty of wineries and providores along the way there and back, hauling a sequined lizard costume and a dozen bottles of the best wine.
After just a few days recovery, I jumped into my little yellow bumblebee of a car and went north again to perform at Krave nightclub on the Central Coast. In addition to seeing so many regular patrons, and belting out 3 spot numbers, I had the honour of presenting awards to the committee members as part of the Mardi Gras wrap-up festivities. As I always say, the punters at Krave are such an appreciative crowd, and it’s always a pleasure to take to their stage.
Tonight I’ll be hosting the Midnight Shift along with the rest of the Glamazons and we’ll be raising a glass in memorial of our good friend David Hiscock who passed away a year ago today. I still miss him every time I walk into that DJ booth, but I ALWAYS get a smile on my face when I see Miss 3D’s astonishing cake depicting David standing there proudly alongside Frankie Shin.
In lighter news, we’re opening our new Wednesday show in roughly 3 weeks, so make sure you come down to the Shift to see the final weeks of Trixxx of the Trade!
