And she shall have music wherever she goes

Yesterday i went to something called MedFest over in Seattle. It's like a street fair except it's dedicated to belly dancing. I had a friend who was in her first performace ever, so i went to provide moral support. She did well, and it was more fun than i expected.

It's fun to see women with normal bodies dancing:

And standing around chatting:


There were lots of booths that were selling belly dancing attire and bling. I didn't by the jeweled bra, but i did get this. It has little bells on it.

I met two friends there, gay men who are a couple. They had to leave soon after the performance because they were overcome by the estrogen fumes. One of them called it MensesFest. Cowards.
