Black Party: Time to get your Nasty Pig on!

| | TrackBacks (0)
Just can't get enough of the stuff to come out of Nasty Pig - you'll soon see me sporting this T (but not for the Black Party ... I have something much hotter planned for that ... also from the Nasty Pig).  Need some last minute wardrobe choices?  Check them out.

Mr Black moving ... yes, again.

The sinful dance den Mr Black is moving yet again to a new location starting on Nov 7th.  It's 3rd(ish) location will be Club Rebel at 251 W 30th Street ... where hopefully all the cute boys and fierce trannies won't kill themselves on the all those steps.  Let's just hope they let me bypass the line at the new location, too.

Is it wrong to want to go to hell? (or at least to want to submit to STH? Buy your copy today, it's worth it.

We were excited to hear that Matthew Mitcham may land his first sponsorship after winning the Gold with AussieBum. (and can we just say we love their HERO line? call me a treckie .. but I just can't look away). We hope to see Matt sporting some AussieBum gear soon.

Love the Kristen. Love the Intervention. Love urlesque for sending it our way.

See more Kristin Chenoweth videos at Funny or Die

We just can't tell you how excited we are to see Kristen again in . Everyone better catch up and then start watching again on Wednesday, October 1st at 8pm!

Why weren't we listed???

Over at Urlesque, there's a list of 20 Bloggers worthy of crushes.  We're a bit offended that we didn't make the list (it does suck to rank 21st ... thus missing the fame and fortune of being listed).  I mean, even Andy Towle made the list ... I guess it doesn't take much.  (JK Andy.  We've got a mancrush on you as well.)

Brideshead Revisited ... Revisited*

| | TrackBacks (0)

I am both excited and nervous to see the NY screening on Thursday for Julian Jarrold's remake of Brideshead Revisited. (You, too, can RSVP for an advance screening)

I'm a huge fan of the novel, and Jeremy Irons, Diana Quick and Anthony Andrews created such depth in their roles on the mini-series that I almost cannot imagine another version of this epic being created.

Matthew Goode, Ben Whishaw, and Hayley Atwell have some big shoes to fill ... and I reserve the right to judge. The movie already has one strike against it: the weak tagline in the promo above. "Privilege. Ambition. Desire. At Brideshead Everything Comes at a Price." Let's hope the movie isn't made for the Gossip Girl audience.

I'm also a bit worried that the gay undertones will be ironed out. At least from the advertising I've seen so far, this isn't a big part of the movie.

All that said. I'm super excited to finally get to see this. I've been waiting for this movie since stumbling across the IMDB page a couple of years ago. Woo hoo.

*I'm sure no one else will come up with that bit of wittiness in this entry title.

Fucked by a Dahlia

The Boy and His Briefs has some beautiful pictures of a pink Dahlia and calls attention to the need for color in the city this fall.

Interesting (and tangentially) enough, my favorite quote is from a Tom Stoppard play (insert English accent here): Fucked by a Dahlia!

It's a good think this city has plenty of that this fall, too.

Bruce LaBruce Zombies

How could you not love brains ... I mean, zombies? I just can't wait for the Bruce LaBruce film Otto; or, Up With Dead People to be released. It's currently in post-production and promises to be a 'new zombie mythology' according to Bruce's site. Check out one of the production stills courtesy of Slava's blog:

Bruce LaBruce Production Still

Maybe Bruce LaBruce will be kind enough to give me a cameo in his next production.

Daniel Zueras - No Quiero Enamorarme

I'm not sure about the song, but this video turns up the heat. I know it's pretty standard, but I can't get over how hot that star tattoo looks on the one guy. And, I think I'm going to have to agree with QueerBeacon's comments about the woman seeming a bit out of place sometimes. Maybe I was just distracted ...

The Afterhours Blog turns one! Rock on, guys. This is where I go to check out the House. They keep it fresh and sure know how to keep my heart pumping at the gym or on the dance floor. Stop by, wish the Afterhours folks happy birthday, and download some great remixes that'll help you remember ... well ... last weekend.

POW

Now you, too, can bask in the dirtiness that once was the Manhole (and later J's Hangout) and take back the night from the tragedy that has become the meatpacking district. Starting Wednesday, February 7th, join DJ Lina and DJ Van Scott as they spin some super tunes at P.O.W.

pow.jpg

Be a Superhero for the night and explore the depths of Level V (located in a space once infamous for it's 'you can't put your head below waist level' rule). You never know - you may just meet a mysterious stranger from your past. And if not, you'll at least have lots of cute Superhero and Bad-Boy Go-Go dancers (something tells me I'll like the Bad-Boys a bit more).

Enjoy super drink specials and the underground private lairs, including the secret Ÿber-sexy Bat Cave. See you all there, but don't bother looking for me - I'll be in disguise.

P.O.W.
Wednesday, February 7th
Level V, 675 Hudson Street (at cornter of 14th St. and Hudson)

Oh, and for all you fancy gays - it's located under Vento, so go have a good meal beforehand.

Pop Rocks

Remember when Pop Rocks was at Flamingo East (even before it was at Plaid) and attracted every cute guy below 14th street? If so, that probably means you are too damn old to check out the return of Pop Rocks at 13 on Thursday, October 19 (mark it down in your calendar, boys). Hosted by the lovely Shania Rendezvous (honey, gotta get you a webpage) - this party will be sure to get your blood pumping and ass boucing up and down on the dancefloor.

And don't let me scare you, guys, you're never too old to rock out. Prove you still have 'it' and join DJ Chip Duckett and DJ Drew as they celebrate the release of the 2007 Dieux du Stade (the nude French rugby calendar). After you dance til you just can't dance no more, grab a free calendar ... which will be 'useful' later on in the eveing if you don't find a cutie of your own on the dance floor. Get there early for the open bar 10-11 ... and be sure to get on DJ Drew's Guest List.

Handle with Care

My newest piece of wall art is a 'fragle - handle with care' symbol silkscreened onto a piece of cardboard (i.e., the side of a box) and matted into a large frame. I'm still trying to figure out why I like it so much. Sometimes, you just can't tell.

Icarus

For someone with a fear of falling ... I seem to be experiencing it pretty intensely these days. I just can't help it ... and I'm actually not minding so much. I think I'll even grow to like it. And that's all part of falling ... isn't it? Ever suspended in that magical place of ecstacy and fear?

What? The bitch doesn't post for two weeks and suddenly there's a campaign to encourage him to post? Puh-leese. The only reason I want Toby to come back is so that I have something to read to make me wretch up my dinner every night (hey, a boy's gotta look his best in the summer time).

No, really VB. We love you. Come back to us. Don't deny your public.

Jerri Blank's Locker

| | TrackBacks (0)
After waiting eagerly for months ... no, actually years ... for the movie Strangers With Candy to be released, I was thrilled to finally be able to see this prequel to one of my favorite TV shows. Flocking to the theater with A. and P. (and another hundred or so gay men), we arrived a bit too late and had to take seats in the fourth row of the theater (an all-to-common occurance in my movie-going of late). Although this made Jerri's butt look a bit wider than was probably intended (or perhaps not), it did give us a close view of what was inside Jerri Blank's locker. The minute I saw the locker door, I recognized the slightly blurred image as one that I had ripped out of a magazine years ago (yeah, bitch, I've been an Amy Sedaris fan longer than you have).

amysedaris3.jpg

After returning home, I quickly found the magazine tear still fresh on my desk (well, about as fresh as Jerri's moist snack cake). Apparently, the image accompanied an article about Amy in Metrosource in 2001. It's great, isn't it?

On a bit of a sidenote, one of my first jobs in NY was working on a show in which the talented Ms. Sedaris was performing. Every single night of the show, I almost pissed myself laughing so hard at her.

In short, go see the movie. It's hil-AR-ious.

Candis Cayne

Candis ripped it up (bad choice of words??) at Opus 22 on Sunday in celebration of Pride. Thanks to GOOL for the lovely photo that will trigger memories of the event for years to come. That girl can perform!

candise.jpg

Even after a potentially fatal wardrobe failure (have you ever tried to do high kicks standing on just one high-heel???) she tore up the West Side Highway much to the enjoyment of passing cars and pedestrians alike. What better way to spend Pride Sunday afternoon than eating a big juicy hamburger from the grill, getting to kiss a cute boy, downing a potent vodka beverage (or two ... or three ... or ... ), and watching a performer that actually has talent?
