JAMESTOWN, N.D. - An official with Australia's "Thunder from Down Under" male revue called cancellation of a scheduled North Dakota performance following protests from religious leaders a shocking form of censorship.

"With all due respect to the (Jamestown) Ministerial Association, no one is being forced to buy a ticket or see the show," Penny Levin, a spokeswoman for the show, said Friday. "But now people are being forced to not see the show.

"We're not a bunch of heathens roaming through."

The mayor and two city council members voted late Thursday to terminate the contract, after the Ministerial Association presented a petition protesting what pastors called a strip show.

Earlier, a Jamestown Civic Center sponsor sent an e-mail to the city administrator questioning having its logo associated with "pornography."

Rev. Randy Jaspers, of Temple Baptist Church, called the show "the absolute wrong thing for Jamestown to bring in."

Lori Anderson, Civic Center manager, acknowledged dancers were "going to shed some clothes." But she said she was surprised by the reaction. The show had been sheduled for next Thursday.

One council member who opposed the cancellation noted the Ministerial Association did not oppose a recent Ultimate Fighting show featuring what the councilman called "guys trying to beat each other's brains out."

Give yourself up to me and I'll guide you along the path to pareadise. Together we will be like fire and ice, love and hate, life and death." Virginia Henley

WANTED: a moment when you kiss someone and eveything around you becomes hazy. And the only thing in focus is you and this person and you relize that he is the only person your suppose to kiss for the rest of your life. And for one moment you get this amazing gift. You want to laugh and you want to cry. Cause you feel so lucky that you found it and so scared it will all go away at the same time.

Maybe if they were naked?


OMG!!! A swordfight! lmfao

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.

They dunno what they're missing!

"Thunder from Down Under"?

This has nothing to do with baked beans and fried onion rings, I trust.

Would the Council have banned a Royal Academy Ballet spectacular who sometimes wear as little?
