    Divas & Drinks @ The Academy SF Third Annual Halloween Party

    The Shake It! Booty Band lived up to their name on Friday, October 27, making their first appearance at The Academy SF with a high energy funky disco performance. Bandmates Peggy Dove, Andrea Prichett, B.C. Cliver, Deborah Hungerford, Catlin Small, Kasey Knudsen, Marina Garza, and Katrine Spang-Hanssen rocked the house and did so in costume.
