HIV Charity – Life Ball 2011 in Vienna

All those who rely on rumours, gossip and the reports of the media are captured in real Second Life. And for that reason, it was about time to see the spectacle at close range. Equipped with a style ticket and a hotel reservation close to the spot we are heading towards wonder-wonder-wonderful Vienna. To get a Life Ball Ticket you really have to make some effort, so ordinary costume wings from the carnival shop of your trust won’t really get you any further… Still, we happen to spot some true dress-up-masters. If we can trust the rumours, however, these folks had to pay more later on, because some really unmerciful style police got hold of them.

Strolling along the magenta carpet and seeing the people right and left of you cheer and scream was absolutely amazing and impressive, even though it was quite obvious that they came for Janet Jackson, Thomas Gottschalk and Bill Clinton. Somehow, this feeling was similar to my emotions at the Christopher Street Day in Cologne, only that it lasted for a two hundred times longer… Still, it was so cool. Unfortunately, the excitement decreased, at least when you are the first one to walk down the carpet, because it takes endless patience, since all the waiting got really annoying. In addition to that, wearing high heels for hours and hours can really get you into bad mood and euphoria is totally drowned by aching feet and legs. Then, at the middle of the event and the climax of the night, you get totally flashed… when Holly Johnson is suddenly announced! In this particular moment, it was absolutely worth it. And well, there was another moment like that.. but more of that later. Seeing Holly Johnson from Frankie Goes to Hollywood live – an absolutely amazing dream. A dream of my youth and a wish that I couldn’t make true myself back that… stupid as I was!

All the other live acts were nice, too, but couldn’t really distract me from my hurting feet, at least not for more than a minute. All in all I have to say, if you ever go to Live Ball, don’t wear high heels or take one of those seats at the tribune.

After the event the masses swept into Vienna city hall to hit the party after crossing the labyrinth of the uncountable stairs. I was especially happy to see the two other girls from Berlin that were booked for the show stage for that night. Miss Pepper and Ginger Synne performed a small, but flashing burlesque show, involving fire and everything else you need for a crazy performance. The videos of their show will be presented at queelresque-tv.de tomorrow. Unfortunately I couldn’t really get Jankaphrodite aka Regina Regenbogen to any more movement, so the evening didn’t end too early. Actually, it was my feet that got my brain making this decision, even though it usually ignores such messages.. *lool*
