A 54 year old goth GoGo dancer here!
It’s only once a month, but I get to be onstage, dancing my little dark heart out and loving life. It’s been a struggle sometimes; I frequently have a crisis of confidence while getting ready to go, and often question if I’m embarrassing myself by still doing this at my age, and my body HURTS! But every time I do make it out, the experience is SO rewarding and I go home exhausted and very happy. I am definitely the oldest dancer, but the club is extremely inclusive of every kind of diversity and they always make me feel welcome. I don’t know if my style falls under the awesome category of “hag fashion”, but I sure hope it does! I’ve been living the goth girl lifestyle for almost 40 years now so, no mom, it’s not a phase, haha! This photo was taken in the green room under the stage which is why it looks pretty garbage.
