Lake Clothes-Be-Gone: A Burlesque Celebration of the Midwest
Lake Clothes-Be-Gone! is a heart-warming bump ‘n’ grind tribute to flyover country from a cast of transplanted Midwesterners. A place where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking and all the clothing is on the floor! From the Great Lakes to the Amber Waves of Grain, they’ll be heating it up like Cincinnati chili. Hosted by Iowa native and superstar nerdcore rapper, SCHAFFER THE DARKLORD, the show will feature performances by cornfed stars of the burlesque stage who can never forget their roots in America's Heartland! Including Ohio native CLAMS CASINO, sexy South Dakotan GO-GO HARDER, Iowa’s own JEZEBEL EXPRESS, straight from Missouri LADY SCOUTINGTON, Minnesota hot dish MINNIE TONKA, Indianan stage kitten DOTTIE DYNAMO and midwestern tunes all night from DJ FRESH PRINCE OF DARKNESS... and all the way from Cleveland accordian/ukelele/comedy superstar team PINCH & SQUEAL! Lake Clothes-Be-Gone will be a trip throughout Middle America for a night that’s hotter than fried cheese curds, sparklier than Lake Superior on a sunny day and more delicious than a Powdermilk Biscuit! It's bound to be a memorable night, bless their hearts...

Schaffer The Darklord
Schaffer the Darklord (or STD) is a New York City-based rapper and comedian with material best-suited for brainy and/or drug-addled audiences. With manic energy, verbose vocabulary and cartoonishly commanding stage presence, STD skewers such topics as religious zombies, sci-fi sex fantasies, grammar snobbery and obsessive cat-enthusiasts. Imagine a Frankenstein-esque monster assembled from equal parts Bill Hicks, Eminem, Prince, Ozzy Osbourne and Darth Vader, stitched together inside the shell of a maniacal heavy metal ex-patriot. STD has released three full-length albums and toured the country with mc chris, MC Frontalot and MC Lars. When he's not on the road, he guest hosts countless burlesque events. He also co-produces and co-hosts his own nerdy, themed production, Epic Win Burlesque. STD writes, records and performs with great frequency and has no intention of giving up until his masochist rock-n-roll lifestyle destroys him.
