Fetish Masquerade Ball * Friday, February 11

Fast and hard, slow and wet and nasty, the Fetish Masquerade Ball is coming at you Friday, Feb. 11, at the Roseland Theater. Freaks, goth chicks galore and multiple acts strutting their stuff upstairs and down, all presided over by the Mistress of ceremonies, Goddess Severina. Featured bands: Burgundy--"heady, gray-washed trip-hop art rock smothered in the molten velvet voice of B. DeWolf." And the bone tingling sounds of Written In Ashes--sensuous, seductive, nocturnal and now. Headlining will be the dark, subversive sounds of Rorschach Test (discover your underlying personality)--Darkwave/Industrial Thrash meat. Go Go(th) Girls and everyone else will get spun by DJ's Gustav and Drue. And a full throttle Fetish Cabaret, featuring eerie performance artist, Wakeworld, the Fire Goddess and the Human Marionette (heavy gauge needles and human skin--not for the faint of heart). Plus, vendors for days: piercing and tattoo, plus PVC and leather fetish wear, accessories and more of what you've been looking for in the 21st century. Tickets available through Fred Meyer/Fastixx locations.
