Last night the Galapagos Art Space in Williamsburg Brooklyn threw an amazing party called the "Swing House" featuring a ridiculous amount of entertainment packed into a raw, dark art space.  I got some fun video of the event if you want to check it out, including the Blue Vipers of Brooklyn performing in the clip above, plus:

  • Another Blue Vipers clip
  • One of the burlesque artists doing her thing (NSFW, obviously)
  • A fire spinner doing some neat tricks

Video I wish I had taken: stiltwalkers, breakdancing (me and Trevor), girls on skates, three aerial silk artists, and two  other swing bands! Madness!

    Actually, it wasn’t Galapagos throwing the party, but us! And it’s now a monthly, so come on down and dance with us: http://www.geminiandscorpio.com/events.html (and yes, she WAS doing her thing en-pointe…we only book the best!)
    Thanks for the videos!
