I'm not sure but I don't think i've actually ever been that stressed about a show in a long while.
The last one I was stressed about was probably in Melbourne where my flight never made it which meant that I wasn't really stressed about the show itself, just the fact that I was going to miss it.
That's the 2nd time ever I missed a performance. The first one being the big Torture Garden birthday where they recorded TGX and I was supposed to do a big messy show with Amrita but instead, i was sick in bed with pneumonia or something and could barely sit up straight.
I've had an idea in my head for a while for tonight's show, but the main problem I'm having now is lack of production support and communication from the people running things. There have also been some misunderstandings (i'll use that word since i'm being nice) and I'd love to clear things up but now there's just no more time.
The concept of tonight's show is pretty rough and it's all about non-consensual bondage. Knowing the stage and club layout would've been extremely helpful in order for me to really make sure i'd be physically safe. I'm not necessarily going to be on the stage itself for the entirety of the show, but also on the ground in the audience. If i could have had some sort of discussion with someone to alert the club staff in advance it would've been much easier to plan this show. Now, I'll just have to see what happens and see if the staff has issues with this or not.
During the mixing of tonight's music and sound clips, the perfect recording happened to pop up on the monitor: that of Berlusconi stating, "We could not field a big enough force to avoid this risk [of rape]. We would need as many soldiers as beautiful women and I don't think that would be possible, because our women are so beautiful." (Earlier this year he announced that he wanted to increase the number of military patrols in cities from 3000 to 30,000... Story HERE).
Well, I hope people will be able to catch that during the show at the very end. I also hope that I wont be to beat up.
Staying at a hotel with Valentina tonight. It will be nice to hit that spa tomorrow!
Right now, all I know is that the stage is about 4x2 meters. it's about 30 cm high. I was told that someone went and got a suspension rig for the show, but well, I never actually said that suspension was going to be a necessary part of this show - which it isn't. It's mostly me huddling on the ground trying to protect myself from getting too beat up - which will be difficult to see with a 30cm high stage. Well at least that's not too far to fall when I get dragged into the audience.
I'm thinking I'll be happy about the non-smoking in clubs law here. I don't want to get dragged through grody cigarette butts n ash! eww!
