 STLS
Check out the drumazingness put forth by local queerions STLS. Their genre-making drumcore duo, comprised of Lisa Schonberg (Explode Into Colors) and sts (The Haggard, Cadallaca) will blow your mind away with their dueling kits.
The pair are going on tour on the west coast this September to celebrate the upcoming release of their 7″ (I didn’t even know anyone still did that…) on Sept 7th on Kill Rock [...]
 So Wednesday I posted a Cazwell video for the boys, so I figured the brand new release from girl favorites Tegan and Sara would be a good balance. And now the twins have different haircuts so you can tell them apart. Bonus!

 Cazwell isn’t even a little bit local. In fact, this summer was probably the first time he’s been to Portland. But I love his simple hip pop and his unabashed lewdness, and this boystown reaction to Katy Pery’s summer anthem is getting almost as much attention as a Lady Gaga video.
And are there hot, sweaty men flashing brightly colored underwear, licking matching popsicles and ice cream cones? Check. So here [...]
 California gays so hot they'll melt your popsicle
In honor of San Francisco Pride, summer, and the 4th of July, I simply must share the latest, gayest internet meme (even if we did only here it about 1o times on our Cali road trip…I really expected about 100 but I could have been too drunk to remember). Oh yeah, and they kick some gay NYC ass…

 Le Tigre live at a filled stadium
Originally titled with the much preferred Le Tigre: Who Took the Bomp, the video diary for the last Le Tigre tour is a bit of self-indulgent nostalgic fluff. But it’s good nostalgic fluff. And you should all know how much I adore both of those things.
Beginning with a random home rocket kit test flight Le Tigre: On Tour takes an irreverent look at [...]
 Military men do Gaga
Never have I been prouder of our Armed forces. In between trying survive dangerous missions in Afghanistan they still manage to have some fun by filming Lady Gaga videos with some fabulous camo and costumes and fantastic footwork.

 D'Lo
Every bit as hot and talented as fellow Tamil MIA, political theatre artist/writer and music producer D’Lo unleashes his spoken word and hip hop act on the students on Reed tonight at 7pm in the campus chapel and tomorrow in Winch Hall at 1pm for a workshop.
With an interesting combination of pure Los Angeles street knowledge and a BA from UCLA in Ethnomusicology and a graduate of New [...]
Even those of you who may not be regular Glee watchers must want to see Jane Lynch aka the evil coach of the cheerleading Cheerios Sue Sylvester and lesbian extraordinaire strike a pose. Miss Madge herself will be on next week.

 La Roux's Elly Jackson
Famous among lesbians for their lead singer Elly Jackson‘s Annie Lennox-like androgyny, the emo-electronic La Roux make a Portland appearance this Monday at the Wonder Ballroom (128 NE Russell St).
Translating roughly to “redhead” La Roux, although a duo, is quite dominated by the amazing voice of the ginger-haired Jackson. Sporting a goofy and gravity defying Flock of Seagulls swoop atop her head and a consistently serious [...]
 Tegan and Sara. Photo by Pamela Littky
Twin hottie hipster folk-rock faves Tegan and Sara will be bringing the ladies down to the Keller Auditorium this Thursday the 8th when they take the stage with openers Steel Train & Holly Miranda. And while the confinement to seats might damper the spirit slightly, there will still most certainly be a plethora of doe-eyed baby dykes swooning over the sounds of the [...]

Lady Gaga and Beyonce’s “Telephone” music video, epic for both its overabundance of pop culture reference as well as its 9 minute running time, has officially reached 1 billion internet viewings but many of those eyes were focused on the very queer intro, featuring genderqueer stripping, kissing and dubious acting in the County Jail, Prison for Bitches.
The most interesting interaction during this extended intro comes from relative unknown [...]
 Jailtime kiss for Lady Gaga or "How do I get into that prison?"
Love her, hate her, think we here at qPDX blog too much about her, there is no denying that the queer internets are all kinds of atwitter over Lady Gaga‘s newest music video.
In a duet with the fabulous Miss Beyonce, Telephone is a completely odd and queer refashioning of pop culture and I want to hear what [...]
The Third Sex from their 7" "Mombies" cover
Anyone who is roughly my age and experienced Portland at the height of its dyke rock 90s knows the The Third Sex. Indeed my newly out 14 year old self swooned over the dreamy screamy vocals of Trish Walsh and Peyton Marshall.
For most of the length of their pop punk career I snapped photos, carried around around one of their 2 CDs [...]
Even my favorites aren’t safe from teasing. This is a pretty amusing little Lady Gaga Christmas album spoof in video form.
Lady Gaga gets in the holiday spirit with this compilation of soon to be classics such as Bad Snowmans and Ho-ho-Hoker Face .
Featuring: Justin Brown, Talyor Sele, Andrew Ford, Junie Kenworthy, Rachel Geiman, Mike Antonucci and Grace Helbig. Written and directed by Daniel Spenser, Steven Levine and Michael Antonucci. Lyrics [...]
Amy Turner and Kathryn Lounsbery of That's What She Said
Good looks are great, but nothing’s hotter than a lady that’s both sexy and funny. And while I have not seen the That’s What She Said duo in person the ladies of comedy have been getting rave reviews. (And I’m a sucker for a puffy rainbow jacket)
This Saturday at 8pm they take over the Q Center (4115 N Mississippi) to [...]
Simian Mobile Disco
Has qPDX become a venue dedicated to weird music videos? Well, worse things could happen.
The official video for Simian Mobile Disco‘s Cruel Intentions, featuring Beth Ditto on vocals.
To be released on January 4th, Cruel Intentions is taken from SMDs latest album Temporary Pleasure which was released in August through Wichita Recordings.

I’m obsessed with Lady Gaga, and how can you not be? Her new video for Bad Romance is set in a blindingly white bathhouse. Who knew so weird could be so hot.
