Ruby, Freesia, and Nina

Last night was a fun night that started at Ruby Tuesday (the bar, not the chain restaurant). I was invited to go see Ethan (this is his blog about doing dances/movement in public places) perform with his friend Issac. The show opened with a performance piece by Micah: He was hilarious... made the half of the bar that was playing pool feel EXTREMELY AWKWARD (yay!). Ethan and Issac played a set together that captured everyone's attention and moved from upbeat to melancholy and ended with a fast-paced plucking piece. Ethan plays cello and Issac plays guitar. Good stuff... they're playing this Saturday at the Contemporary Arts Center in Cincinnati if you wanna check it out (and I suggest you do).

After the show, Ethan, his partner Will and I went to Union for a couple drinks. Still being new to the city, I was happily surprised to see a full house, $3 Long Islands (made shot for shot. no mix crap), and Nina West performing with other queens (of which we only caught Freesia Balls and Nina).

Thanks for the free shots! ...And here's another plug that this Saturday and Sunday is the Miss Great Lakes EOY 2009 Pageant.

It's at Axis.
