| - Let me start off with the drawbacks to Thunder From Down Under: it's expensive. Yup, that's the only one.
But for the $70 or so that you'll drop you get: ripped men dancing in choreographed routines while wearing themed costumes (firefighter, gangster, cowboy) that they rhythmically remove. And if you're one of the chosen ones you just might get pulled onto the stage, and publicly molested/be made to molest one of the Aussies. It's a total emersion into every gal and/or gay boy's fantasy world. And unfortunately you're not allowed to capture any of it on video/photo unless the emcee tells you to pull out your phone and snap a pic (which luckily he did while I was there).
I came to the 7pm show on a Friday with four other people. Our group was a mix of gay gents, and ladies so we didn't get too much one-on-one audience attention from the Thundering Ones, but that was preferable for me. Many other ladies were rubbed down, and rubbed up on, especially those who were there wearing a sash/veil/something symbolizing they were a bride-to-be, and I'm more of a looker than a toucher.
These are very interactive shows so that's something to be aware of going into it. And if you want any extras after (like a photo with the men) then it'll cost you extra, $20 to be exact. And drinks aren't inexpensive either. It's an expensive night out, but a fun one.
