Finally we get to Mother's Ruin

I'd been to Mother's Ruin once before, to see Anaan/Joe/Farasha perform as Harrissa. It's not a large venue, but it's a loveable one. It's one of two bar/cafes run by our DJ and his wife: Mother and Mother's Ruin. They took great care and thought in designing Ruin (I've never seen Mother). They didn't "find the space" they painstakingly built it. It's below ground, the walls are organic-looking stone with inset lights that shine through glass Aztec/Mayan faces. The floor is well worn wood. The benches and tables are all wood and also very organic looking...and there is the large copper lizard crawling across the ceiling. It's very cave/found looking.

 

( The show, sort of disjointed because I am still knackered )

Coming up...special underwear!

Yay! Eshe's costume has been washed, lined, and adjusted. The bra is a pretty tight fit but I get no under-boob. If I were any bigger or it any smaller, it would be vulgar...but I think I'm safe.I still need to make a special pair of underwear for it (because of the hip circle thingy) but I might just wear it Friday. I thought about loosening the skirt another centimeter, but first I need to dance in it and see if it makes a break for the floor.
