It’s a holiday treat: Schaffer performing Attack of the Clonefucker at So Wrong It’s Right Burlesque last week.
Schaffer the Darklord, libertine of libery, performs Tomgirl at his birthday show on 12 November. This is one of my favorite of STD’s new jams.
Photos from the MC Frontalot & Schaffer the Darklord show at the Knitting Factory on 12 November. We were also celebrating the birthday of our Darklord, which was cause for fun tiny hats. Lefty and I fangirled out.
Schaffer the Darklord performs Night of the Living Christ at the My Undead party last week. See more rapping here!
Here is my friend Schaffer the Darklord performing Supervillain at Epic Win Burlesque’s DC vs Marvel show last weekend. This song happens to be the very first one I ever saw Schaffer do live, and it’s one of my favorites.

Such a classy song.
This song is actually called “Do Sex”! But it’s still super classy.
Were you aware that you still have three more chances to see Epic Win Burlesque at the Fringe Festival? It’s true! We have shows tonight at 5:15pm, tomorrow at 9:15pm, and Saturday at 5:45pm, all at the Ellen Stewart Theatre (66 E 4th St between Bowery and 2nd). All three shows will have tickets available at the door.
Come see Schaffer and Lugo debate the merits of Star Wars and Star Trek while lovely ladies get nearly naked. Tonight’s lineup includes Lefty Lucy, Nasty Canasta, Miss Mary Cyn, BB Heart, Fem Appeal, and Rosey la Rouge.
This wonderful photo was taken by Ben Trivett, and there are more where it came from.
Oh Nerdcore Hip Hop… Schaffer the Darklord has been a force in the New York City Nerdcore scene for several years now and when he takes his act on the road you see it that much more. This year at Nerdapalooza, in addition to performing his act, Schaffer was the co-MC for the event and hosting with his burlesque troupe, Epic Win Burlesque. But even with everything else going on, Schaffer tore a crowd of people to shreds with new and old songs. You can check out more performance photos here. http://bit.ly/qaQNGu
I took this photo at a party at Schaffer’s place on Friday night. I instructed him to look sultry, which led to foodforbears shrieking like an adorable little girl.
I can’t believe I forgot to post this with the Epic Win Burlesque pics. These two fine gentlemen are the hosts of the troupe that brought you shows such as Video Game Vixens and Rater R for Violence. The on-stage chemistry between these two is kind of inspiring. I’ve gotten to know them pretty well and can honestly say they are two of the hardest working guys in this business. Both of them manage work with the Burlesque troupe, have full time jobs, and are professional performers. Oh… and they are always willing to take fun photos with me. Enjoy my tribute to Police Academy 5!
Let’s take a break from talking about bands and look at some photos of my favorite people ever, the ladies of Epic Win Burlesque. For those of you who don’t know, Epic Win is the creme-de-la-dork of Burlesque. They love video games, zombies, and amazing movies and it’s not everyday that you can have an amazingly sexy argument over the finer points of Star Trek and Star Wars. I’ve gotten to know them pretty well over the past few years and it was a total pleasure to watch them perform at Nerdapalooza. This was one of the highlight acts and completely packed the room after midnight on Day one. Love it. Be sure to check out Epic Win Burlesque whenever they perform in New York City (5 Shows at the NYC Fringe Festival) as well as more pics from their Nerdapalooza performance at http://bit.ly/nlyihJ.
