Rocky Horror and Piccies!

[suki_blue]

Rocky Horror was a blast. Bigballs and I had a great time, but we were very disapointed in the amount of people who bothered to dress up. Hello? Rocky Horror? You are supposed to wear a costume? Yes? We're putting it down to the Theatre being in Richmond and the theatre goers being therefore too posh to put on suspenders.

I did however spot a man in a white rubber nurse costume. That was nice.

The show itself was very well done and all the actors were perfect. There was just enough audience participation to make it all work, although I'm still a little stunned that not everybody got up to do the Timewarp. Hey, me and BB aren't the most outgoing people in the universe but we managed it - with arms all over the place because I couldn't quite remember the sequence. Hee!

Conclusion: Show good; going again in April (Brighton); on-stage manly touching very satisfying; worth the money and made a nice break. Grandad was bright as button when I got back. His face actually lit up when he saw me come through the front door. Pity it didn't last.

I'm affraid I have no pics of men in stockings, as we'd all hoped; maybe we'll do better at Brighton. Instead here are a couple of pics of me and BB from after the show. You totally have to check out BB's costume. She made it all herself. The top was once a bra and skirt that she patched together and sewed sequins on. Beautiful, but tying her into it was a bitch!! :oD











Also, I made a new Spander banner. Shut up.

You made a new Spander banner? Surely not!

The costumes look great. Why wouldn't people dress up and do the Timewarp? What's the point of going?

Hee! Banners are my crack. I can't seem to stop :oD

Exactly!!! There is no point!

~points to your icon~ I'm still a newbie to SG-1, but I'm pretty sure I watched that ep today.

It's Singularity from season 1. I liked that pose because you can see all just how long Michael's legs are.

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Yes, that's the one!

Good legs. Long is very good. Yum.

nice job on the costumes -- you both look great!

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Thank you!! ~hugs~

[jans-intentions.livejournal.com]

Love the pictures! Glad you had a great time.

OMG, I had to click about 10 times to see the new one, lol. Love the new spander banner. Beautiful work.

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Yeah, we had a great time. Just what we both needed.

LOL! Just imagine how many times you'll have to click once I've put up a THOUSAND banners!! Heeeeeeeeeee!

Have fun! :-D

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Cool!! Thanks so much for the links!!! YAY!

It's such a great show, isn't it? We hadn't been for years and it seems they've changed a few things since then.

I never understand the people who go and just watch it as a film. They have DVDs for that! Or did not get the "Don't dream it, be it" memo? :) So glad you had fun - and you both look adorable!

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Exactly!! It's silly to do that. It doesn't take much to dress up and you don't have to really know all the moves to the Timewarp. Just wing it!

We had so much fun. I can't wait to do it again. Thanks, hon! :o)

The new Spander banner came up straight away for me! It's gooorgeous, hon. You're well on your way to a hundred. Yay!!

So glad you had a good time at Rocky Horror. Who was in it? I saw someone interviewed about it on GMTV, I think, but can't remember who it was. My mind is failing fast. *g* Your costumes look fab!

A man in a white rubber nurse costume? There must be a good pun there. ;)

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

A hundred? Hee! Don't tempt me! :oD

I forget who was in it now except for some girl from S Club seven, I think and I recognised the guy who played Roff Raff but I can't figure out who he is.

It was a fab time!!

Not everyone dressed up? Comon where's the suspender love? *grins* cool outfits btw, settled for the film myself when no bugger would go and see t with me donkeys years ago *hugs*

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

LOL! I know! Mad, isn't it??

The show is wonderful. I definitely recommend it if you can't twist someone's arm ;o) ~hugs~

[velvetwhip.livejournal.com]

There should be a dress code to get in to see Rocky Horror - normals allowed. *g*

The new banner came up for me straight away! Very purty!

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Exactly!! And, just wearing a sparkly party wig doesn't count!!

Yay! Fanks!

[taruma16.livejournal.com]

Lovely banner! I love the way your banners change in 'reading comments' and 'reply'!

You two look awesome in your costumes!
I can't imagine not to do the Timewarp! *shakes head at people*

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

Thanks! It's cool, huh? I never have to decide between banners again. YAY!!

I know! It's stupid! Why are they there if they don't want to Timewarp???
