nsfwI gotta say a little piece of me died a little to learn that this year wouldn’t have a Pride Gaycation as I’ve been going to it for, I dunno, like 8 years or something? (Ask Mary, she has a better memory than me.) But I’m super stoked that it is actually not absent, just combined with one of the best newer parties, the amazing Thursday jam Laid Out, to make the super opener that is #NSFW. (What is it with the hashtag party names this year? I mean, if you were going to do a mashup why not just go with Gayed Out?)

To make sure everybody feels welcome, the promoters are keeping the cover to a low $5. This isn’t a party for a select few — they want to see everybody celebrating the beauty of collective pride.

The theme is “we just wanna party” (duh), it’s hosted by the irrepressible George Ray Babycakes and the killer DH lineup includes:

Bruce LaBruiser (Dirtbag)
KKost (Pony / Seattle)
MistiMiler(Laid Out)
Mr. Charming (Gaycation!)
Gossip Cat (Laid Out/ Bridge Club)

It is but a meager 5 bucks and since it promises both sex and LULZ, I’m totes there.

$5, 10pm Friday June 13th

Holocene Portland
1001 SE Morrison
