Thread: Fetish and burlesque?

I'm just wondering if burlesque and fetish are hand in hand these days?

When i first got into burlesque, i loved the thought of a smokey club with burlesque acts, some jazz/swing music playing in between the acts, people dressed to the nines.

I know smokey clubs can't exsist due to the ban, but i can't seem to find places like this?

Again not saying it's bad, but i would like to also attend a more tradional (if that's the word) club.

You might want to try some of the afternoon burlesque events that are happening accross the counrty, I have been to a lot of these and they seem to be a more 'burleque' crowd, probably because there is no 'clubbing' aspect to them.
