HAPPY HORROR DAY

 

Hallowe'en Greetings to you all from Pam Demic!

Just about now the ghost are due...Beware, for I see one after you!!! Bwahahahaha! Welcome to this years Hallow's Party at the Casa with Pam Demic....get those libations and come one, come all, into the parlor for some good old spooky and Hallowed music, sit, dance, mingle or shimmy, or for all I care ogle a houseboy, I'm sure the Mistress won't care. Wear a costume or not, and helpful yourself from the special candy dish if you dare. We're all treats and no tricks!!! Let's all kick off with some Love Potion #9....

Since the houseboys seem to be otherwise tied up...let me pass around some hard candy, gin infused of course....Now let's get back to it with a real macabre performance from Vander Von Odd.....

Mullied Cider!!!! After all, there is always time for another 6 cock-a-tails! Apologies if anyone is finding feathers in their drinks. But's it easier then bobbing for apples isn't it?

Let's get down on it...this is Hallowe'en , everybody make a scene!!!!

Why yes..Pam Demic is still wearing masks and yet still has something smart to say. Opps, did you hear that? Remember to still say safe ...mask it or casket it! And yes, Pam did wear that mask to the graveyard concert the other night. It's sequins people! Take it away Jinkx.....
It looks like I , huh, well, it's rather embarrassing. I huh appear to be out of candy and the little bottles of gin...and the fish bowl of keys is still full, which means many of you may be busy with houseboys....so let's end on a quite note with a lovely melody for the day....Thank -you for popping in again this year's Hallow's. 

Happy Hallow's to all you Ghouls
*drop the houseboys Cali-Boi....and Huntley.....Sixpense......and Uptonking.....Bob.....Hazard.....we may be here all night......

VANDER

 When I first saw Vander Von Odd perform at The Ritz in Hell’s Kitchen several years ago, I didn’t know at the time he was the winner of the first season of Dragula. At that point I hadn't seen the show yet.  All I saw before me was a drag queen who commanded an extremely strong presence onstage, right up there with Sasha Velour — even more than most queens I’d ever seen live, including that of Sharon Needles . Looking like a cross between Dracula, a witch and a femme fatale, Vander wore a crown on his head that read “FAG.” During his performance, he took off the crown in a way that embraced his identity as queer person while simultaneously fighting against bigots who try to demean the humanity of LGBTQ individuals .His performance is one I’ll never forget. His look so was polished and very well executed. The message of his high-concept performance shone through clearly. And when he opened his mouth wide  revealing pearly white fangs  you couldn’t help but feel frightened yet slightly aroused. There was a horrific beauty in both his look and his performance.

But even thought Vander's form of drag may not be for everyone, what I love this most about him is he has said he loves opposing forces and the juxtaposition of something that is visually stunning and beautiful,  but is simultaneously disturbing or horrifying in nature.  Vander Von Odd said in an interview on line once. “It’s like something you feel you shouldn’t be admiring, but you can’t look away. It’s that clashing of raw emotions that really fuels my art.” And THATS what I really love. Plus this queen had a major set of balls.
