Making an exclusive appearance onstage was the star of the show, Piranha (or as I like to call him, "Pirajuana"). He was oddly belligerent, but considering he is a prehistoric fish (albeit one with massive issues) I suppose it's to be expected.

Pirajuana: The fish that time forgot.

Word on the street is that when Piranha is not chowing down on wholly deserving Joe Francis-types and drunk girls in bikinis, he's doing double duty as The Rio's projectionist. Talk about multi-tasking! That fish is an inspiration to all.

The evening also included a costume contest (fish heads! blood! partial nudity!) from a committed core of Rio diehards and some appropriately themed burlesque, courtesy of the lovely and talented Miss Fitt and Melody Mangler.
