Bohemian Carnival

Oddly Eclectic & Eccentrically Exciting FUN!
SITREP
I enjoyed the Bohemian Carnivals for several years. They would be around for awhile on Fridays — then disappear for months — and then come back for a resurgent tour de’ force.
The last one I went to was before Thanksgiving 2010. So I hope they will bring them back again in the future.
SETUP
This last chapter was extremely enjoyable as I remember it being hosted by the The Vau de Vire Society with special guests the Bambi Killers! (hiLARious!) and the Flynn Creek Circus High-​Flying Daredevils! (OUTSTANDING!)
THE KINGFISH!
On this occasion, my friend MC Kingfish was also present for comedic hijinks that kept the audience roaring and highly entertained.
All in all, an exceptionally fantastic night!
THE LOWDOWN
Catch them when they are featured, because it isn’t that often these days. But the BOHEMIAN CARNIVAL is a fantastic bevy of screwed-​up fun!

LOVE me the Bohemian Carnival. It’s the underground circus gone haywire! It’s a fun time with a more than a pinch of sexy. Definitely not a circus for kiddies. The whole experience is amazing, trippy and wholly entertaining.
I’m glad that Bohemian Carnival is there to provide a creative outlet for all the amazing performers. I like to imagine that they would otherwise be wasting away in a cubicle, with their souls caged and crushed… but with the Bohemian Carnival, they can release their creative spirits onto the world. Or maybe projecting my feelings about work onto this and living vicariously through the Bohemian Carnival.
At any rate, top-​notch experience, but maybe not for everyone.

Wonderful show. Amazing artists. Unfortunately, the attitudes of the producers of the show could use some improvement.

This was amazing. I heartily recommend. Fou Fou Ha! were especially hilarious, although all the acts were on point. Can’t wait to go again!

BTW this even IS still at the DNA Lounge.

I want to be in Bohemian Carnival.

. circusy acts, burlesque, cabaret, music, sexy klowns, awesome dj’s. if you wanna taste of something different and crazy fun. check em out!

Caught it during Lovefest and absolutely lurved it!
I’m usually bored by clowns and acrobatics. But Gooferman was awesome — not only entertaining but with some great-​sounding songs! Also Vau de Vire is just stupendous! The male strongmen who did the act lifting each other in impossible poses were absolute quality!

It should be noted that Bohemian Carnival is no longer at the DNA Lounge. The website has their next show listed as July 21^st. :-(
I don’t know what’s up with them, but I wanted people to know.
For the current events at The DNA Lounge go to:
People who enjoyed Bohemian Carnival might also enjoy Hubba Hubba Review, now every third Friday @ The DNA. I reviewed it separately.

yum.

Bohemian Carnival is HOT, though, being a girl, I wish more girls would wear clothes and the boys would take more off. But the trapeze work is astounding. I saw a guy do a routine while standing on his hands for over 15 minutes while removing and stacking the bricks he was standing on.
Some of the creepy old men from B.A.G.G. have started to hang out at Bohemian Carnival because of all the hot, mostly naked, circus girls, but I ignore them.
I love Bohemian Carnival. Not all acts are top notch, but there is more than enough supreme acts to make it more than worth it. The Vau De Vire Society is the hottest act I have seen in all of SF. And all this at a 10^th of the price of Teatro Zinzani.
Come early if you want close street parking.

Lets just say you have to see it to believe it. This night is a monthly event at the DNA lounge, held every third Saturday.
Contortionists, trapeze artists, bands of clowns, clown dj’s, girls dressed as cats playing with yarn wearing nothing but electrical tape over their nipples and small panties, the whole evening screams sexy. seriously. you cant explain it till you have seen it. The main band Gooferman is awesome. The Vau De Vire Society is super talented, and Xeno has some amazing fire acts as well as excellent DJs. The crowd is the freakiest crowd you’ve ever been with. They are mostly all clowns and performers too. Definitely a burning man environment, super friendly, costumed, with amazing music. I emailed them with a question I had, and i got a personal email back, telling me to introduce myself next time and one of Gooferman would buy me a drink. I am friendly with one of their friends who works the door… he is the clown cop, so in a world of clowns its good to know at least a few.
Been twice, going back on this Saturday, and going to try to make it my own personal monthly as well.
