First up, Luminescent Orchestrii from NYC. They’re a musical group that does Eastern European and Gypsy music, something vaguely like the Gypsy Kings, if a comparison must be made.

Torchy Taboo presents The House of Heat
Echo Lounge
June 2004
| Saturday it was off to Echo Lounge for a night of burlesque – “Torchy
Taboo presents The House of Heat.” First up, Luminescent Orchestrii from NYC. They’re a musical group that does Eastern European and Gypsy music, something vaguely like the Gypsy Kings, if a comparison must be made. |

| They have three lovely ladies on violin, |
 |
| one guy on a big acoustic bass, |
 |
| and another guy switching instruments at random. He even whipped out one of those keyboards you
play by blowing in one end for a sort of accordion sound. Good stuff I’d recommend highly. I meant to buy one of their CD’s but got distracted by the boobs that followed. |

Boobs like the MC the Pontanis brought with them, a guy who tried to play the sly, witty host but came off about as funny as old jokes forwarded to you in email by your grandmother. Not even funny in a bad way, just bad. I’ve seen some hilarious MC’s for burlesque shows and he ain’t one of ‘em. We heckled him for a while, but then realized it only extended his stay on stage. |
