So I get a chance to sub for a local band this weekend doing mostly Classic Rock like the usual Mustang Sally stuff, with a decent paycheck. I get the set lists, and I'm good to go. I'm talking to the bandleader, and he's telling me that it's a pretty wild place and folks do some crazy things there, but they are good folks. I'm like, that's cool, I've played some wacky shows in the past.
The venue is called The Crucible in DC. I look up the venue to get directions, and I find that it's a BDSM/Alternative Lifestyle club and I'm playing on Swinger's Night. Well, never done one of these before. Should be interesting.

| | | | played a erotic cabaret 2 weeks ago. they asked us to learn a few hendrix, CCR & SRV tunes they had dances choreographed to. it was a lot of fun but you have to keep focused. i blew the intro to Couldn't stand the Weather cause i COULDN'T LOOK AWAY! 1/2 naked ultra hot chicks dancing on the subs in front of me was so distracting.

Would it be rude for me to go snapping pics of folks? For educational purposes, of course. |

Yeah, THAT kind of place. At the time, I was ripped and tan, and straight(still), and received FAR more attention than I was comfortable with....  |

The people that attend those events generally want to keep that part of their lives secret, with rare exception.
If they do allow cameras, make sure you ask before taking anyone's picture. Some people will love it, and others will be totally opposed.
