 'Put it in your mouth' with Wyatt Riot For awhile there was a Facebook group trying to get local queer foodie Wyatt Riot his own show on Logo. I don’t think it got very far. But Wyatt doesn’t need MTV networks to make homos in PDX want to know about the best food carts and places to put it in your mouth. I mean, Portland was recently voted #1 by [...] Time to get a little classy Portland. And by classy I mean sloppy champagne and cosmos classy. Come join us for the kick off of Club Foxy at Couture Lounge tomorrow night. The night will offer cheap drink specials and happy hour food all night. Nope this club isn’t just for the breeders anymore! DJ Girlfriends and Chelsea Starr will make the fagulosity go on from 9PM past midnight with sweet [...] The weekend in glowing lasers, lots of meat, last summer Gaycation and plenty of 'Thee Satisfaction' THEESatisfaction plays Friday at Rotture as part of Menz Room. Photo courtesy of Maceo Paisley Tonight sPLURt! episode 2 – I’m starting this weekend off tonight because how could I not highlight a bukakke-themed 90?s rave revival party? Really, I kinda think the 90s are back with a vengeance and I did always have a hard time letting go of the Peace, Love, Unity, Respect mantra. Plus with a photo like [...]  Palo Verde's Lauren K Newman (left) and Terrica Kleinknecht C.L.I.T. Fest (Combating Latent Inequality Together) is a DIY punk fest with music, workshops, discussions, a flea market and picnicking organized to address sexism, homophobia, and transphobia in punk and to celebrate the strengths and potential of our community. And it’s a big community. The lineup includes a vast array of local and international bands (I think about [...]  Last year's Homo's Got Talent winners Nicolette and Pony, aka, Art School Dropouts Tonight The Cafeteria at Vendetta – The inaugural lunch lady themed new gay night at my new local bar mere blocks from my new gay house! It should also be the perfect cool down from Last Thursday, and it’s, you guessed it, within walking distance. Lunch trays and crunk gays (and $1.50 Pabst) within stumbling distance? I’m there. Purple [...]  DirtBag at The Know, Portland Ok, so Thursday isn’t technically the weekend yet, except when it is! Last weekend the hottest weather we’ve had here in fair gayPortland, and plenty of us used this opportunity for suntan catchup, chillin’ at the beach. Here a little weekend review in case you missed some of it..! Thursday saw the premiere of DirtBag! at The Know, which has moved from the Blue Parrot / [...]  I had this foggy notion i went BENT at faggy nation! It hasn’t been long since the Blue Parrot first fluttered it’s way into many a Portland gay’s party calendar. A little off the beaten track and tucked away pretty far up north, no one could predict that this local neighbourhood bar would turn into the party location motivating deepest SE bound queers (me) to hoof on up north. (Which [...]  Portland Weather…it's getting better! Do I dare post this? Hard to believe, but the weather forecast for tomorrow is up to a staggering 94 degrees! Considering I was having drinks with a friend at the Bye and Bye last week and could see my breath, this is unbelievable. Time for a quick-and-dirty summer guide to queer Portland. Ah, beach life. A great place to go and be amongst your fellow queers [...]  Gay Cat Wow – what a weekend. I don’t know about you, but I’m still recovering, and finding glitter in unexpected places. This year’s Pride was an amazing experience for me. Five nights, ten parties, two marches, and zero gay bashings or homophobic incidents (as far as we know). A vibrant, powerful and peaceful pride despite a lot of changes this year – to the Pride route, to step-off [...]  Cazwell and Amanda Lepore will be at the Stark Street Block Party So yeah, the 11:30 step off time for the Portland Pride Parade is pretty much a guesstimate, and we’ve all just been partying for 4 days, so Gay Standard Time is general operating procedure. But it’s the 40th anniversary of the first Gay Pride (Lordy lordy look who’s 40…) so you better be there with your fairy-ass bells [...]  It's Kaj-Anne Peppar vs Blow Pony…who's gonna win? I know yer tired…so am I…but we persevere…cuz it’s Saturday night y’all The Dyke(ish?) March – Despite all the confusion and disorganization the Dyke March will trudge on in 2010. But be careful because it’s an hour earlier this year! Gathering at 5pm with a 6pm step off this parade of “dykes” is really more about celebrating Portland’s appreciation for and power [...]  Bearracuda at Branx/Rotture Yeah, what’s up with Friday night this Pride? It is a doozy. I mean, I’ve had to work really hard to pare down my nightlife route and even so I’m still attempting 4 parties. Here’s to hoping someone has a special on Red Bull… One Night Stand with Robo/Bogo – This one is going to be epic folks. Two promoters doing two kick ass parties for [...]  Rai Villanueva will help kick off Pride with Thursday's gay ass Diesel party Recently added events starred like so* Truthfully, I think I’ve been putting off the Pride 2010 calendar because there’s do damn much to do that I’m overwhelmed. So let’s take this piece by piece. First, there’s plenty to do before we even get to the weekend. Workin’ stiffs, of which I now be one, gird your loins and [...]  I’m not the worst furniture and stuff who but I do like nice things for cheap. Scouring garage and estate sales can be fun when you find that treasure but can also be a nightmare of broken children’s toys and crap you can’t pay to give away. Wading through the drek to find one tiny gem can be an all day affair. Not so at last year’s Gay-rage sale, happening [...]  Last year's Beartown 14. Photo by Stephen Cassell Can you believe that Portland has been celebrating fuzzy, round, gay men for more than half my life now? That’s right, 2010 ushers in the 15th Annual Beartown from this Thursday the 10th through Sunday the 13th at the Jupiter Hotel (800 E Burnside). Once again, the schedule is ridiculously exhausting. Whether you’re hot tubbing, cigar smoking, or dancing in your underwear, you’ll [...]  Vote Karol Collymore for County Commissioner County Commissioner candidate Karol Collymore may not be gay, but she gets an honorary badge…so says fellow queer journalists and shakers Stephen Marc Beaudoin, Byron Beck, Caryn Brooks, Jim Radosta, Bryan Boyd and others. She’s received the endorsements of The Oregonian, Willamette Week, NARAL, and several elected officials. Her policy and personality make it a no-brainer for qPDX to add itself to this [...] Happy St. Patricks Day Portland! What are you doing tonight? He has a celtic tattoo…proof enough he MUST be Irish Gays and dykes seem to have a love hate relationship with St. Patrick’s Day…we love the drinking, the dancing, the getting dressed in funny clothes and the sexy Irish accents, but not so much the catholic church and the being banned from parades. But for once, I’m not gonna go on [...] |
