The Devil-Ettes (San Francisco)

They wear pink miniskirts, white vinyl go go boots & petite hand made devil horns. Sassy, sultry, yet utterly All-American, The Devil-Ettes provide good, clean fun for all ages! These go-go goddesses have gained notoriety for “settin’ the fringe a flyin’” at their wacky, wickedly wild high-energy shows. Keeping the lost art of retro dances alive since 1998, these gals are living masters of the most vivacious dances from the vortex of the heyday of 1950’s – 1970’s including the Hully Gully, the Twist, the Frug, the Watusi and oh, so many more great dance steps! In addition to numerous performances in their hometown of San Francisco, the girls’ fancy footwork has taken them to Las Vegas, New Orleans, Los Angeles, Austin, NYC, Seattle, San Diego and beyond! Honest-to-goodness GO GO DANCERS! Right there before your very eyes. You’ll think you’ve died and gone to Go Go Heaven.

Agent Double-O S.O.U.L. (Seattle)
When not undercover in the capacity of an espionage operative actively vanquishing diabolical supervillains, somehow finds time to indulge his taste in spinning exotic contraband disques for dancers in seedy bars the world over. Then it’s back to the never-ending, perilous life of spy versus spy for our intrepid agent. Odds are he won’t live to see tomorrow.
