Homomentum's Gaycademy Awards

We can be disappointed by the real Academy Awards but Portland is great at making shunning the mainstream in favor of our own winners. Homomentum’s Gaycademy Awards will be just such a show.

We have all been enthralled by the last five boldly themed shows and Saturday should be no different with a double dose of surprise out of town guests Jukie Sunshine and Alysia Angel as well as Felice Shays [...]

Bent, Buck Angel and beginning the weekend

Trans porn star Buck Angel

Trans porn star Buck Angel

When I first heard about Portland queer porn showings I was elated. Slated to be at the intimate and aptly named Rumpspanker’s what could be better than a horde of horny queers reveling in their sexy voyeurism together? But alas, the night was moved south to Crush (1400 SE Morrison) and refashioned with a hefty $10 entry fee.

And while it would be pretty fantastic to [...]

Miss Thing does Broadway

Sally Ingus Wilder debuts

Sally Ingus Wilder debuts

This month’s Miss Thing: Broadway Babes on Wednesday is a tribute to all things showtune. Hosted by Heklina and the ladies of Trannyshack, San Francisco Miss Thing takes to the Fez (316 SW 11th Ave) monthly to showcase thematic drag numbers that have a chance of winning it all. And by all I mean a “best of show” performer will be chosen to compete in November [...]

Embodiment: A Portrait of Queer Life in America

Need a reason to cross the river into occasionally overwhelming First Thursday territory? How about Embodiment: A Portrait of Queer Life in America?

Seattle-based photographer Molly Landreth and a video artist Amelia Tovey, in town from Sydney, take over the Tribute Gallery (328 NW Broadway #117) to showcase their ongoing project showing the diversity of the queers of this great nation.

Also tonight a special deal. Prints will be available for purchase [...]

Blow Pony and Hot Pink Mass, the weekend in review

I have only heard that the weekend started off right with Red Cap’s Bootie mashup party on Friday. Alas, these old bones needed at least one day of rest where I remained in my own neighborhood to attend a mellow house party. But I did make it out the following two nights starting with Portland’s [...]

tonight:say your prayers at hot pink mass

Hot Pink Mass at the Fez Ballroom

late, but still in:

If you’re looking for something queer and fabulous to do tonight because you didn’t get enough even after a big Blow Pony last night, head to the Fez Ballroom! HOT PINK MASS is “a church for weirdos, perverts and those who live the dream” featuring a bunch of local queer artists. One night only.

Crave gets the gold with a masquerade ball

Pretty Bois drag kings

Those ever classy ladies at Crave may have moved their thematic parties to once every two months, but that only makes them bigger and better. Tomorrow night’s Gold Masquerade party should encapsulate a very dynamic February filled with debaucherous celebration in true Midas theme.

I fully expect the southeast digs at Crush (1400 SE Morrison) to positively sparkle with golden deliciousness as surely the hand of the [...]

New dance night “DO THE DARK” hits portland tomorrow

Do the DARK!!

Phew! Another dance night. My shoes barely get to cool down these days. But who is complaining when you get to DO THE DARK?

Indeed, after the demise of the fabu “FRUITCAKE”, do the dark is hitting inner NE this Thursday with DJs Count Fagula (FRUITCAKE) and Chelsea Starr (DOUBLE DOWN) . Cheap wells and $2 PBRs. No cover before 10pm, $3 after.

It’ll be at the Tonic Lounge [...]

GAYCATION turns 4!

funner than this

One of Portland’s favourite queer nights, gaycation, is turning an amazing, post toddleresque total of 4 years old! Given the short lifespan of queer nights in this city, we’re very happy that Gay Cay is around and going stronger ever.

Come celebrate with Mr Charming, DJ Snowtiger and special guest KIM ANN FOXMAN (of Hercules & Love Affair). Expect tunes that will keep you on the dancefloor, wall [...]

It’s still valentines day even if you’re homosexual

HEARTTHROB: gay people throb and have hearts too, you know

We all know that valentines day is a bunch of silly stuff, sillier than silly string, not quite as silly as, say, Tiger Woods text messages or Donald Trump’s toupee but still, pretty silly.
It’s still an exceptable excuse for a party though, so a local hero DJ squad consisting of, wait for it, Lifepartner, Freddie Fagula, Girlfriends and Gottesfinger are [...]
