I coaxed MWB into going to see a bellydance show at Your Inner Vagabond...Oh! SO incredibly beautiful! And..I wish I could just ditch my wardrobe (and about 50lbs) and have bought much of what their vendors had for sale in the lobby.

Performers included:

(Philly peeps, if you EVER get the chance to see Hipnosis perform..DO IT! The videos on this site do not do them justice. All improv tribal bellydance, which..believe you me, is very hard to believe because it looks so choreographed..)

http://www.zafiradance.com/ - the hosts of the event
Their dance was..it felt like it had French influence. It was very different, and do I need to say beautiful? ZOMG beautiful.

http://www.evadancer.com/ - Eva Cernik - she was the 'main act' and did much dancing with a veil and zils.

(There are others listed on the Zafira site that I don't think performed, and one or two I don't think are listed, dang it.)

So, yes; we lounged on pillows, we drank incredibly good coffee, I had MUCH more coffee than MWB did and man did I want more...and I wish I lived closer, as I'd be going to YIV on a regular basis. *wistful sigh*
