The tassel-twirling beauties of the Lalas take burlesque to a whole new titillating level. Each one is an accomplished professional dancer, and their routines are equal parts sultry striptease and athletic showmanship. Led by celebrity choreographer Erin Lamont (she's worked with Lady Gaga, among many others), the Lalas tirelessly tour the country, bringing their pulse-quickening act to thousands— currently, the troupe is touting a classic rock-themed show. These women are so astonishingly fit, they almost make us feel guilty we haven't been to the gym in a month. Alright, a year. Tonight, they take over the Federal Bar, Long Beach's art deco-inspired drinking establishment, for a wild night of rock music and dancers taking it (almost) all off.
