Fem Sex Extravaganza 2008

Hey y'all. So myself (Jack), Il Nocturnal, Gabe Oi, Dante Demoan, with guests Dicky Long and Mitchell Brothers performed at UC Berkeley's FemSex end of the year extravaganza. We shared the stage with other women performers who have been empowered by their experience in FemSexm, or had been invited from the community. I had a great time; and the show, however short our set was great. Il Nocturnal opened the three number set with Peaches' "Two Guys for Every Girl," followed by my rendition of Wierd Al's "White and Nerdy," and we ended with the Across the Universe's version of the Beatles' "With a Little Help from my Friends." We had a great audience and everyone had a great time. Thanks FemSex!
