Burlesque mondays ?

I'm thinking that we need an additional theme around here, so how about burlesque mondays ? Lets see how long I can keep that going for.
I'll start things off with a little video of Amalia Aguilar performing her Afro Mood and Rhumba Amalia routines, courtesy of The Internet Archive.
On top of that here is a link to Burlesque Magazine, which is a free online publication, based out of Sydney Australia, dedicated to burlesque all over the world. It's a pretty cool site, you can check out the entire magazine in a good size and a pretty cool little application with all kinds of cool features for viewing as well. Thanks to my friend Jade for hipping me to it. 










Another thing you might want to do is checkLinkout the current book from Hard Case Crime (I know I rave alot about these guys, but they do good work) entitled "The Corpse Wore Pasties". Written by none other than Jonny Porkpie - The Burlesque Mayor of New York City.






And if you're new here go check out this older post whereyou can get some fine dancin' music by Sonny Lester.
