5 out of 5 for the blues band! They were exceptional. 2 out of 5 for the burlesque dancers. The best parts were the maid parts in between performances - she was good and the guy burlesque was unexpected funny. the rest was ugh....

The Blues ended up being more of the draw than the Burlesque! The Burlesque was a little truncated (awe of the Musicians??) DID manage to get a CD of Crimson House though!! WILL return for a re-match (if there is one!)
