Antonio Cedeno Presents A SHOWSTOPPER!
ANTONIO CEDENO PRESENTS: A SHOW STOPPER!
There is no such thing as an ordinary night when Antonio Cedeno’s name is attached to a party. What started out as a night of “nothing special” turned into an unforgettable evening! Everyone had on “Mister” Tee-shirts. MISTER is an app and website for adult men. Check it out at http://www.misterapp.com
Unfortunately, when your name is Ed you avoid putting the word MR. before it. (Mr. Ed, the talking horse)
Event host, the AMAZING and ever so CHARMING, Antonio Cendeno was at the door greeting all who entered- and MANY entered! The place was mobbed with people just having a GREAT time! The staff worked hard to keep up with the crowd, but always had smiles on their faces. Special APPLAUSE to DIEGO for creating the stylish cuts on my tee-shirt! Feathers staff goes so beyond the norm to keep customers happy. Scott was serving this girl water all night and she never tipped him, yet he kept serving her and genuinely smiling. The drink special was a VERY LARGE $10.00 Iced Tea Drink- IT WAS INSANE! I salute all you survived those drinks! It just added to the fun that Antonio was creating.
The music was untouchable! Lady Tita kept the guest prisoners to the dance floor! My legs were crying to stop dancing, but the music was so good I just couldn’t leave the floor. She created a musical setting that has never been seen before at Feathers. Lights-Fog- Music-Drink! Excellent time! You know she had to have been feeling like a Goddess, because she ruled the night!
There was a guest DJ, Obra Primitiva, who had his own style going on downstairs in the lounge. He had them dancing at the bar-and if the ceiling was higher, they would have been dancing ON the bar. Fingers crossed that they have him back again soon! Not only is his music smoking hot-so is he!!!
Show time interrupted my love affair with the music, and like a scorned lover I was not happy. Antonio brought out his guest and I wanted so hard to hate her for stopping the music, but fell in love with her!
Josephine Halle B- remember that name!
She came out to Dolly Parton’s “9 to 5” and then whipped out her trench coat and brought down the house with her rendition of RuPaul’s “WORK” and work she did! The crowd when crazy! If Feathers dance floor was going it fall apart- last night would have been the night it happened! They were stamping and jumping! It was GREAT to experience. I do not know how Antonio does it, but he brings such GREAT talent to his events! She was in charge of the contest and the winner received Two TKTS to “WICKED”….How cool is that!
After the show Josephine graciously met fans in the lounge area and posed for pictures! What an incredible performer.
There was also a tee-shirt, hat and gym bag give-a-ways by the dancers- MY FAVORITE-WILLIE was there! LOVE HIM!!!
Before I close I want to give a shout out to Antonio’s friend Mikey . He is always at ALL of Antonio’s events and is always running around helping Antonio out. Also, a shout out to Principito! He had such a great event last week and nice to see him supporting Antonio and Feather!
Well, tired from the night of dancing and chatting and FUN! Thanks again ANTONIO !!!
P.S…I love that Feathers is taking the responsibility of AIDS testing and having vans in their parking lot. KUDOS!

Principito Presents Playhouse and Brings down the house!
PRINCIPITO brought DOWN the HOUSE with his PLAYHOUSE!
Last night Feathers was on fire and it was all thanks to Principito’s Playhouse! I knew from the moment I walked in the door that something caliente was on the horizon. There was some discussion about tee shirts and the fact that they said something implying the person wearing the shirt was HIV. I guess the message was to make the public aware that ANYONE can be affected with the disease. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE AND EVERYONE SHOULD ALWAYS PLAY SAFE!
But, I don’t think the PR department ever visited a gay bar. Imagine all the facebook pictures if all the bartenders wore those shirts? Credit to Eddie, the manager, and Mikey, the waiter, who attempted to wear the shirt but they were over-whelmed with customers inquiring about their HIV status and even I could feel the scared stares they both received. Imagine the day people educate themselves before they judge others. TWO THUMBS UP to Principito and Dorian for including such an important health issue in a night of fun and fever!
But with or with-out shirts the people flocked in. By 11:30 there was a line outside the club. This was my first experience with a club party hosted by Principito and I was quite impressed. The decorations were colorful and fun! Principito, himself, was so generous with his time and made every guest feel welcomed.
Dorian (aka Harmonica Sunbeam) was co-host and worked feverously to supply entertainment to the crowd. It is a thankless job, unless you work in the business- keeping crowds and entertainers happy is not an easy task. SHOUT OUT to DORIAN who has been a staple at Feathers for many years and is very much appreciated.
Tiffany Richards and Cyannie Famouz provided the drag entertainment and had the crowd screaming for more. It was PACKED! They worked the audience and kept the fever going! I have to be honest with you; it was so packed I could not even get close to the stage! That is impressive!
There were the HOTTEST dancers I had ever seen on five different level dance boxes. The guest couldn’t get enough of them. Whatever flavor you are into there was a dancer to satisfy your hunger. They brought the steam to the hot sounds that DJ JOHN RIZZO was throwing out!
Rizzo out did himself and the customers noticed. So many conversations I had with customers included how great the music and how each better was better than the one before. The dance floor was packed ALL NIGHT LONG!
I had a great time hanging out with Scott, Eddie and Paul. They are always so much fun and add to the festive mood. Unfortunately, I didn’t notice Diego behind the bar until I was leaving. He is such a sweetie! He was working with downstairs Eddie, who my eyes always fall upon. Vinnie was packed all night working on the dance floor. He served with a smile all night long! They had an adorable shot boy, Patrick, who sold frozen drink specials all night. He was quite a hit and everyone wanted a pic with him!
It was nice to be at a party that promised fun and delivered! Keep your eyes opened for the next Principito party and DON’T MISS IT!
