The second happened on Saturday to a.....RAWRing.....success. I couldn't belive the love we got especially in Sheffield where I don't know people you all really made us welcomed. Being a emo goth has been My life. I remember wanting things like trench coats, back combed hair, shiny belts, going to see MCR and not being able to. I was very withdrawn with my style and unable to express myself. Now being able to go full Emo. Wristbands included hosting my 2nd own shoe was paradise. A Sell out event flabbergasted me and I wanna thank you all for making that happen.

A space for alternative performers to do what they want is what I wanna keep providing. A show where we can be ourselves.

Also being able to be on stage with....my Family. The Moans Family

Which hopefully I will be getting my other drag Daughters

The fact that I'm growing a drag family is what is one of the rewards of doing drag. Aswell as meeting and showcasing

Which I'm so happy we got to be on stage being metal nerds together

Giving us all the emo fantasy we deserved

Phallo
Providing us the classics that I hold dear to me.

I wanna thank
For doing the fantastic photos. Dan for the lighting and Chris for being on the door and all the staff at DINAs

And and there friend for taking part in the dance off.

Send them all love.

I wanna personally thank for being such a tremendous support ❤❤❤.

If you wanna do alternative drag and don't know where to start please feel free to message me as the drag parade is always looking to help bring monstawrs out.

Love yourself and be yourself.

Love Maria
