I’ll just say it. I hate Christmas and i hate this B.S. holiday season. So why would I even go to a Christmas pageant?
3 reasons:
Rock and Roll, burlesque and booze!
Kristen and I met up with Alan and we hit Slim’s to see the Los Straitjackets Christmas Pageant featuring the World Famous Pontani Sisters and singer/emcee Kaiser George from Scotland.
Yes, Los Straitjackets perform some kick-ass surf and instrumental rock wearing Mexican Wrestling masks. Infact guitarist Daddy-O Grande only speaks to the audience in rapid-fire Spanish. Amplifiers were covered in shiny gift wrapping paper, and there were cheesy little artificial trees everywhere. And throughout the show (while performing their own surf tunes and twisted and creative surf-covers of standard Christmas songs) the Pontani Sisters performed their cute yet sexy dance numbers. Round it out with Kaiser George singing an occasional song about love, joy, holidays and cynicism… it was a fantastical night of Rock n’ Roll genius.
