HAPPY BIRTHDAY TITA

Turning forty


Whether you are celebrating a special occasion, or a friend is, or you just want to get out of the house- Club Feather’s is the place to be! What Antonio Cedeno has done to Feathers is just incredible! Last night was a 40th Birthday party for one of Club Feather’s own –DJ LADY TITA and there were crowds upon crowds there to help her celebrate the milestone. What makes Lady Tita in a league of her own is the smile that she shares willingly with all around! She is always there to lift your spirits whether it’s through her spinning or her warm words of encouragement.
Last night was no exception; the dance floor was on fire all night and only stopped for a moment when they saluted the LADY of the night. Veronica Conway started the night off with a song that spoke to all- FREE, “You’re free to do what you want to do.” I hear that you have that freedom when you turn forty; I cannot wait to see if that is true.
Scott, aka Veronica, gave up his night behind the bar to entertain the crowd and entertain he did! Veronica tore up the song and the dance floor with her usual flair! Then out came Ginger Vitis to continue the joy with the song “JOY”, shooting confetti out into the crowd! Ginger also had the bright idea of throwing lollipops out into the audience – there is no way to look attractive when you are trying to duck on-coming lollipops, BUT FUN TO WATCH!
So much fun and so many hot studs roaming the dance floor trying to seek me out and who should happen to start up a conversation with me? PINKIE! This African American chick comes and ask me for the time or a light or a tampon…Who could focus on her words when you are staring at this bright, flashing neon pink hair. Before I could say anything she just bounced away-literally BOUNCED! This guy turns to me and asked if I thought her hair was real, "I am sure she thinks it is!" Why do they find me? I want a nice guy with a smile that will melt my heart and all I get is the crazies, and the unemployed!
The cherry to the end of a perfect night was seeing my WILLIE dance! I LOVE Go-Go dancer WILLIE! He is so terrific! Antonio Cedeno has started to hire some strippers and last night he struck gold with Kafe! The guy has a body to die for and a smile that melts your heart! He teased and pleased the crowd! There was not one disappointed pair of pants in the crowd! He got EVERYONE’S blood pumping!I BIG shout out to the HOT new Bartender-Tom! Make sure you say hi and welcome him into the FEATHERS family!
I also noticed everyone wearing the new AC Production Tee-Shirts ($25.00) It will be the summer fashion! Order now!
Next Saturday is the Blaque Party! From what I hear it is going to be one HOT night! GREAT Guest and lots and lots of surprises! You know ANTONIO CEDENO DELIEVES!

BIANCA RULES THE NEST

Bianca rules the NEST
Valentine’s Day- my favorite time of the year- not! Most people think the pressure of not having a lover for the Christmas holidays is depressing, try going shopping in January and February and seeing all the flowers and balloons and chocolate candy reminding you that you are ALONE! I can avoid the HALLMARK stores, which I renamed the HELLMARK stores, but when they are selling this “couples are the only ones who deserve chocolates” propaganda in supermarkets and gas stations I think it has gotten out of hand. I haven’t even mentioned the little sugar heart that have those nauseating “Miss Ya”, “Hot Stuff” messages – I have a message for all those love birds eating all those calories-TOOTH DECAY!
Am I bitter? Is Snow White a dirty whore who was getting it on with seven midgets while she waited for a guy with money?
I digress…
After a fun evening at the Theater, I went to see “The Divine Sister” (A MUST SEE), I ventured back to New Jersey to party at Club Feathers. Doesn’t everyone leave the exciting, energetic happening NYC to travel to River Edge, New Jersey? Well they should! It was another Antonio Cedeno Presents party! I walked in to be greeted by Antonio Cedeno, who was sporting a cane due to a back injury. I have to admit he looked like a sexy Willie Wonka leading me into his Chocolate Factory. I haven’t seen him have that much fun at one of his parties in a long time. I thought it might have been the pain killers, but it wasn’t it was just a great night. Antonio had put together a night to be remembered. DJ-ing downstairs was the FANTASTIC David G. He played for the people and the people created their own dance floor! I love watching the energy of the dance floor spill over to the lower level! It’s like two clubs in one! PS…There was also a cute new bartender named TOMMY. He has a KILLER smile to match his killer abs! Club Feathers has always been a friendly “Family style” night club. I encourage everyone to stop by the new bartenders and say hi! They are a bundle of nerves behind the bar and your kindness can make their night. It doesn’t take away from “your favorites”, just adds to the atmosphere of the place.
You can tell Eddie the manager was busy this week collecting decorations. The place looked incredible! Red feather boas adorned the dance floor and heart shaped “I LOVE YOU” balloons brighten up the surrounding walls. It was a just the fun look the place needed to compliment the occasion. Adding to the decorations were the sexy customers. I swear each guy was cuter than the next. I have not seen so many hot guys at Club Feathers in a long time! Seems winter hibernation is over and the studs have returned to PARTY and party they did! DJ John Rizzo kept them, sweating, on the dance floor all night! I was exhausted from dancing when I looked at my cell phone to find it was only 11:40! The night was young, I only wish I was!
Does anyone wear watches anymore? I remember the pickup line used to be; “Do you have the time?” You really can’t really say that anymore because you would look like a loser without a cell phone.
A few of the workers had on “WET” t-shirts. (Including Diego; I love seeing Diego behind the bar- such a great guy. He was always so complimentary when I used to work there.) I wasn’t sure what WET was. I found out it was a lube …(Taken directly from their site; WET Products are designed with your ultimate comfort and pleasure in mind. Choose from a variety of personal lubricating gels or liquids, flavored lubricants, flavored heating massage lotions, toy wash, sensitive skin lubricants, shave cream or aromatherapy heating massage oils. (http://www.stayswetlonger.com/wetproducts/index.shtml). Antonio introduced me to the representative of WET, Antonio Martinez-HOT! OMG! The whole night I was trying to make eye contact with him to no avail. At one point I thought I had caught his eye- he threw something my way. I thought it was his phone number, it was a lube sample. Not one to give up easily I continued to try and make eye contact. This time I got blind sighted and got a sample in my eye. They really have to work on an easier was to give out give-a-ways. I got clunked on the head with a porn DVD, which I wouldn’t have minded it I got to keep it! But it bounced off my head and into the hands of a comb-over, buck toothed fatty! I didn’t say they were all gorgeous.
But the best part of the night was the amazing Bianca Del Rio! She is the Drag Lisa Lampanelli! So hysterical! If you get a chance to see her - RUN! She had me in stitches from the moment she was introduced to the time she exited the stage! I can’t even find the words to describe how incredible she was! Hopefully they will have her there again! A packed dance floor on a Saturday night and people wanted more! She hosted a wet underwear contest. It was quite clever they way they wet the contestants. They provided water guns to the audience and they squirted the contestants underwear-CUTE.
What I LOVED about Bianca was that after the show she walked around the bar and made small talk with a lot of the customers. Most of the time performers come in with their own people and stay with their own people. She really enjoyed the night along with everyone else. Two thumbs up to a GREAT Performer and A GREAT Promoter-Antonio Cedeno!
Feel better Antonio!
Don’t miss the next party on MARCH 13, 2011- BLAQUE
And HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY to everyone!
If you don’t have a Valentine and want one-friend me and we’ll chat!

RuPaul,Ginger and Veronica = Antonio's Angel's

RuPaul + Boy-lesque = A Wild Week-end!

So Antonio Cedeno tells me that Club Feathers is now the place to be,"Every night is better than the one before."
I tell him Friday night sucks!
No matter what club you go to (NY/NJ) it’s a ghost town.
I have searched high and low and still cannot find a place that has life.
Until…
Club Feathers offer discount drinks (Vodka tonic’s for two bucks!) HOT dancers, fun bartenders all for a five dollar cover( mind you it cost $8.oo to just get over the bridge). Still the place struggles to get one hundred and fifty people!
WHY??????
Enter Antonio Cedeno
How he made these connections is beyond me!
Now on Friday nights Club Feathers will be premiering “RuPaul’s Drag Race”
Why wait till Monday when you can see it on Friday?
I was told the night was busy-even after a snow storm!
I had to see this with my own eyes...
The customers and bar workers were having a ball. They were handing out free give-a-ways like, tee-shirts and pom-pom’s and drag mask! They were playing shot games-Every time they said the word “drag” they did a shot, Attitude drag walks around the downstairs, betting on who was going to move on and other activities. The place was buzzing with laughter and excitement!
When the show was over they played it back and kept the party going. Meanwhile, John Rizzo had an energy flow capturing the customers on the dance floor. His music was so FABULOUS! I was on the dance floor for a half hour straight! It was terrific! Shout out’s to customers celebrating events had everyone joining in and giving reason for more shots!
Scott J was the dancer and I defy anyone to show me someone more chiseled and near perfection than he is! The man is a Michelangelo sculpture brought to life! Some of the dancers may break a sweat to get people’s attention, but all Scott J has to do is “pose” and people flock-plus he is a GREAT masseuse!
You can find Scott J giving out relaxing body massages on Saturday nights at Club Feathers- his strong, warm hands rubbing your back and shoulders makes you feel like you got “lucky” and you don’t have to make him breakfast-o maybe you do … ;)
On Saturday, Antonio Cedeno Presents BOY-Lesque hosted by Ginger Vitis and Veronica Conway and a slew of the HOTTEST Go-Go Dancers! What a FUN night! Club Feathers introduced a stripper’s pole and these guys showed us exactly what to do with it! WOW!
Ginger Vitis, who on a personal note I have to say I was so PROUD to see Joey (Ginger Vitis) come into his own as a performer. I have seen Ginger through the year’s guest starring in other performers shows and never getting the recognition or attention he/she deserved- that has all changed! Ginger Vitis IS the ONLY CHER! The character was brought to life by Ginger and the audience went wild! Ginger worked the go-go dancers and had them in positions that I didn’t think were possible.
Then enter Veronica Conway ( who I adore on stage) belting out number after number and having the audience howling for more! The two of them together are magic and I hope to see more!They have brought back the old show morale,humor and professionalism. Watching them race around before the show to make sure it went off with no glitches reminded me of the old shows when performers took the time to care, and you can see that both Scott and Joey care.
Look for BOY-LESQUE- which I hear will be on Friday nights with the RuPaul Drag Race Preview
LET’S HAVE A BIG SHOUT OUT TO ANTONIO CEDENO FOR A GREAT TIME AND A GREAT SHOW!
He has been under the weather lately and he still manages to put the audience first!!!
Look for the Valentine week-end of events!
And remember where to go on FRIDAY nights!
LAST, but certainly not least, it seems bartender Artie got a promotion and will be Club Feathers NEW floor manager and Diego has been promoted to bartender! No one deserves it more than these guys! I love Club Feathers- They really do put people first and take care of their own! Appreciate it guys! What other club has a heart?

New Years Eve and a New Year of PArties

This year I found myself just floating through the holidays, whether it was the economy, working 12 hour days, or just a blandness that seemed to filter through the air. I was determined to get that old holiday spirit back even if I had to have three ghosts visit me on Christmas Eve.
As I get older I find that holidays are really for children and there is emptiness when you take Christ out of Christmas. Trust me this is quite shocking for me and anyone who knows me knows how much I used to LOVE presents! But as you get older and you have everything you really need holidays really do become about the feelings.
This year my cousin’s eight year daughter was in a church pageant and played an angel. I sat in the church from 2 o’clock until 5, and listened to all the religious Christmas songs. Whether it’s old age, or new age awareness, but I listened to the songs and let the words sink in as they were sung. “Joy to the World”, written in 1719, mentions having “heaven and nature sing”. I sat thinking creating a relationship between heaven and earth was conversation that far back! Amazing! Watching the first Christmas being re-created by little second and third graders brought a smile to my heart and started adding color to my bland spirit. Christmas morning found me exchanging gifts with family and getting caught up in a hot, feverish game of Trouble with my cousins five year old. I needed to pop a 6 to win and was so disappointed when a 2 appeared. Seeing my disappointment my cousin’s kid took the game and flipped it over and shook it. “What are you doing?” I asked as I gathered the pieces that flew when he flipped the game over. “I’m trying to get you a 6.” My holiday spirit was completed. Children and religion do have a place in Christmas, a good place.
Every holiday season I swear to myself that I am not going to get caught up in the New Years Eve insanity! You know the last minute hopes of love and trying to find a date to kiss at midnight – a true love that will last the whole year long- and every December 31st I find myself hunting out a victim to give me my 12:00 kiss… and every 12:02 I have to ask, “What’s your name again?” - real meaningful.
As I entered Club Feathers I started soaking up the melancholy mood New Years Eve brings, painfully aware not to go to deep fearing the present will be overshadowed by the last years regret, but that won’t happen Tony Mona just entered snapping me back to the laughs this evening has in store. I have spent so many New Years Eves at Club Feathers, but this year was filled with excitement and smiles! Everyone walked in happy to be there and went that extra step to be kind and bubbly! There was an “Antonio Cedeno” mood in the air and everyone was catching it! Lady Tita was playing in the downstairs lounge and set the high energy mood from the moment the guest entered the club. Added to the energy was the sweet aroma of Chef John Rizzo’s to die for buffet! Mouth-watering doesn’t come close to describing the presentation and taste of the food that was offered.
It still baffles me that a club can offer such a GREAT buffet and open bar and breakfast all for $40.00! When I worked there people actually complained about the price saying, I don’t drink that much liquor! I would respond “Go buy a six pack and stay parked in your driveway.”
Eddie and his wonderful staff were in high spirits and greeting guest as they entered. Eddie, the manager, welcomed old timers and gave them a tour of all the changes that occurred through the year. DJ John Rizzo had the dance floor packed early and kept them dancing until Antonio Cedeno and Tony Mona came out to ring in the New Year! The balloons dropped and the champagne corks popped! Kisses hugs and handshakes were running wild…yes a hand shake. I waited all year for a midnight handshake on New Year’s Eve! I started chatting with a customer that I had known for years but never talked to-I decided to chat with him this night. We started hitting it off and before I knew it the countdown began. I wasn’t sure what to do and at 12:00 we looked at each other with magic in our eyes and he threw out his hand shook mine.
We chatted a little longer and then I excused myself to go to the restroom-actually I was casing the joint to see if there was anything better than Mr. Handshake.- there wasn’t. So I went back and he wasn’t there! The nerve! I joined Tony Mona to find out that the entertainment showed up and was about to begin! What a TERRIFIC show! I was really surprised! JIPSTA & SANDY B were GREAT! Jipsta is a talent to keep your eye on- if you missed him, your loss.
I left the club as the donuts and coffee was being served- a person can only allow themselves so much excitement. What a wonderful way to ring in the New Year, and hey a handshake just lets me know that the only way to go is up! Did you hear that single men!?

AC hits another HOME RUN

Antonio Cedeno strikes another home run!
Feathers is going to need reconstruction with all these guest performers coming in and ripping the place apart! Sherry Vine had them stomping the floor begging for more and last night Pandora Boxx had them tearing up the floor and rushing the stage!
From the moment you walked in the air of Feathers was light and whimsical. If anyone needs proof that a Christmas miracle has occurred take note: Antonio actually HAD clothes on! I have known him for many years and didn’t recognize him! He was in great form; relaxed and just hanging. He hung out with everyone, making sure everyone was smiling and having a good time. He even went shot for shot with many of the walk in customers, as well as the "AC –ites" ; his groupies have nick-named themselves this.
Everyone was laughing, dancing and enjoying themselves as the time flew by. DJ Lady Tita was her GREAT self burning up the floor and raising the already high energy. The cherry on the top of such a fun evening was the incredible funny PANADORA BOXX! She had the group going from the moment she stepped onto the stage-just flying in from Florida. (Boy, were her arms tired! - now you know why I write and don’t perform stand-up. The place went crazy and continued until last call!
After the show was the meet and greet –what a nice person she is! There was a surprise cake from Feathers own, rising star-Tony Albanese. Tony is making quite a name for himself outside of working for the CAKE BOSS. (Within a year he will be the man that you will say, “I knew him when…”) The cake was a work of art and so appreciated by Pandora, and everyone else!
Besides, the hot new dancer (book him for the year} the upstairs had a surprise when DJ AJ started the evening off with his great sound and fun attitude! He is missed and hopefully will made more guest appearances!
I’ve said this before and I will continue to say this when you see Antonio Cedeno Presents…(AC) on a flyer mark the date on your calendar because it is a night not to be forgotten!

Benefits and Friends with benefits made up this week-end

After a busy and exhausting week-end I can finally find a moment to sit down and blog about the fun! Let’s start at the very beginning- Friday night and the benefit for Children with Cancer. It came to Antonio Cedeno’s attention that there were two little children whose family could not afford the medical bills. With-out a second thought Antonio got on the ball and organized a benefit for Ava and Ivan and created an event that had everyone talking! Not only was he able to get gift baskets from Whole Food and Karma Salon, but also raffled off two tickets to LATE NIGHT with JIMMY FALLON! From the moment the customers saw the pictures of the kids the pockets were emptied and the money basket was over flowing with tens and twenty’s! A great time was had by all and the cherry on top of the evening was the solo performance of Michelle DuPree (Scott Cooper). The audience was wowed with this drag legend, as was I! Michelle has not only aged gracefully, but has come into her talent and made the half hour show a memory that will last in everyone’s heart forever! Being a single father, the caused brought out the best in Scott and the audience knew they were watching an event in the making! Antonio also arranged for everyone’s favorite dancer/ masseuse Scott Jenkins to not only dance, but massage the patrons as they sat at the bar. Scott has improved 1,000% as a performer since the first time I saw him dance and hats off to Antonio for seeing this diamond in the rough and polishing it!
Fortunate for me, but unfortunate for my readers I hooked up with an ex and have no idea how much they raised, but seeing the hearts that came alive to help those children was the gift in itself for me.
How do I describe the over-whelming sensation that hit me as I entered Club Feathers on Saturday night –UNBELIEVABLE! When I stepped inI was handed a free admission to the club on the Friday after Thanksgiving, which happens to be one of the busiest Fridays of the year! Then I was greeted by shirtless calendar models from Jersey Jocks amateur models. They signed calendars and posed for pictures with everyone! Between Lady Tita pumping up the music energy and the models pumping up the hormone energy, the night was outrageous! Check out what you missed at www.jerseyjocksonline.com.
That was just the beginning, the excitement continued upstairs where John Rizzo owned the sound and energy of the evening!Also, back by popular demand; and let me tell you EVERYONE was begging for the return of Veronica Conway! She hosted an underwear fashion show featuring the hot styles of the up and coming LOUIS BOOM BOOM and his BOOM WEAR. (Google and check out his designs)As a long time 2 (x) ist wearer I have to admit the texture of the material and inventive design is swaying me. The models and show was so well organized. Antonio Cedeno has become a pro among the promoters and his confidence is having him take chances with winning results! Hats off to him and his brilliant creative choices! The walk way was resigned for the evening and instead of looking at the backs of people’s heads, Antonio had them elevated above the crowd and all could see!
The secret surprise of the evening was a guest appearance by Ashley Blake. I have not seen Ashley in a couple of years and watching her perform was a pleasant trip down memory lane. She was improved so much as a performer and is still as sweet as ever! What a wonderful evening!
After the show all the underwear models went downstairs and sold their wears! Between the calendar models selling calendars and the underwear models selling underwear – who needs a mall- or a book store…lol
Have A GREAT THANKSGIVING and look for a GREAT WEEK of Parties- I won’t even mention the night before Thanksgiving. Steve Sidewalk makes every Wednesday night packed like the night before Thanksgiving so expect three hundred extra people and GET THERE EARLY!!!

Boots, Saddles and Feathers equals FUN

Boots, Saddle and Feathers = FUN!!!
While still riding the high from the Halloween party, Antonio Cedeno continues to keep his name and parties fresh on everyone’s lips! The buzz started last week when everyone was talking about “Antonio Cedeno Presents; Boots, Saddles and Feathers” party and the appearance of a new singing sensation, Sariah. While I wasn’t quite sure what to expect calling a party Boots and Saddle, I was thinking line dancing, country western music, cowboy hats. While there were many in cowboy hats, including the bar staff, the music was far from country! Lady Tita was sending out smoke signals last night and they were HOT! HOT! HOT!!! The dance floor was packed all night and only broke when the Sariah, the guest artist, made her sneak attack and capture the crowd!
DJ Justin Ryan kept the posse rounded up in the Indian Lounge where Antonio Cedeno greeted guest. After seeing Antonio dressed as an Indian I was ready to surrender the land and be taken captive! The energy was high and it was all thanks to Antonio. As usual the staff stepped up and played their parts as cowboy sheriff’s and deputies.
The highlight of the evening was recording artist Sariah. She lassoed the audience from the moment she stepped on stage with her eye candy back-up dancers and FANTASTIC VOICE! I was standing by the big bar and heard the customers “shh-ing” people, which was a first. Her voice brought an energetic excitement to the evening which lasted long after her performance. Forget about the Alamo, remember Sariah! Experience what you missed; check her out…http://www.myspace.com/sariahmusicnow.


Next Saturday, Antonio Cedeno Presents WALK FOR ME!
