Santa Plays the Cheerleader in Dallas

by Renee Roberson

Much to many people’s surprise, “Santa” opened the show in Dallas on Nov. 24. She had opened the last show in Florida prior to heading to Texas, so many fans were expecting another doll that night. Instead, “Santa” strutted out in a “Tori-style” Dallas Cowboys cheerleader uniform complete with matching pom poms! Her show included the set debut of “Sweet the Sting” (complete with margaritas) and she highlights included “Beulah Land” and “Jackie’s Strength” during T& Bo. Most people who have witnessed “Santa” in action know that it’s almost mandatory to get up and dance during some of the more upbeat and sassy numbers like “Raspberry Swirl,” but apparently there were some attendees who took the stodgy route and refused to stand during the concert. Well.

This show will be available for download on at Legs and Boots.

I can’t wait to see which dolls will grace Houston and San Antonio. We all know Tori’s take on President Bush, and she’s playing three shows in his home state. There’s sure to be a variety of politically-charged numbers in each setlist. I’m betting Clyde for San Antonio, and Pip or Isabel for Houston. We soon shall see! Here’s the complete setlist for the Dallas show:

Act I – Santa
Body and Soul
