"Poker Face" by Lady Gaga

I deejayed the Halloween Dance at the Wasatch Mountain Club with my friend Rob tonight.  We have been doing this for around 25 years.


Tonight was the first time I presented female at the dance.  Although I went "full-time" as a woman at the end of March 2015, I still presented male at last years Halloween dance because I had agreed to do the gig before I had decided to go full time as a woman.  I felt funny about showing up at the gig as a woman, without any advance warning.



It was actually a very weird feeling after having been living as a woman all the time for over 6 months and then suddenly looking like a boy again.  It was EXTREMELY WEIRD using the Men's facilities again!!  I had felt out of place in them for a long time before that, but after living as woman for many months, it was downright CREEPY!

Anyway, we have been playing this song "for the kids" at these dances for several years.  The kids seem to love this song and so do I.

Oh and I finally figured out that part of the chorus isn't "cherry pie" but "can't read my".  DUH!!  As I've mentioned before (5-Aug-2016) it is funny how you can confuse lyrics.

I love the intro in the live video where she talks about the song!  An amazing woman!
