As per request, and since I had such an awesome time, I wanted to tell the story of my concert on Monday :)
When Chantell first introduced me to the artist, Emilie Autumn, I was excited.. but since the only videos we could find were bad Youtube clips probably taken at concerts with people's cell phones, I wasn't prepared at all for how incredibly good the show would be. The whole thing is done performance-style, quite charmingly, with a rather dark and gothic twist.
Just to give you a taste of what I'm talking about, here's a clip of one of the performances they do at every show. One very lucky female member of the audience is brought on stage to play the "Rat Game," to be deflowered by Naughty Veronica...



Sadly, Chantell and I weren't picked. We'll have to find other excuses for "cheating" on our boyfriends with another girl. (Oh, that won't be too hard, we've done it once already. Sorry Christophe and Andrew!) <3
The story behind the show is that it's set in the 1800's, and Emilie Autumn runs an insane asylum for wayward Victorian girls (her performers)..... so the songs are performed like circus acts with a dark, deranged twist, complete with dancing with flaming hula-hoops, over-the-top costumes, and... whatever you'd like to classify this as.....



During another song, they performed a "teatime" by pouring themselves cups of tea and taking bites out of cookies and cupcakes, then throwing it all at the crowd.. both the tea, and the half-eaten sweets. Delightful.
Definitely an experience, thank you Chantell <3
