I have this gig every Friday at noon. The restaurant promotes belly dancing this day at lunch time. It is indoors but very bright and all glass doors. I feel a little odd with my flashy Emans and Bella costumes but that's what the owner wants and what the previous dancer wore. The place is always full and doesn't have a stage. I can't really put on a show and just dance around entertaining the customers. Very different from the night time sub gig I do every now and then. Is this dancing during the day at restaurant gigs not uncommon? I like the customers and they come to see me but some do look amused to find a belly dancer during the day.
Is it normal to wear fancy costumes? and what about make-up? A little lighter than for a night time gig?
