Finn and Charlie Are Hitched, By Tony Breed

*Flyer For July’s FKA, Chicago’s Best Queer Dance Party
John D’Emilio’s article in this week’s Windy City Times is a reaffirmation of my belief in the power of a queer dance party. He gives a brief history of the role that dancing and organized dances have played in the gay liberation movement:
“In discos, at women’s music [...]

Wynne Greenwood, Still At It

Judging from wynnegreenwood.com, 2006 was the definite, no-going-back R.I.P. year for Tracy + the Plastics. And unless you live in Washington State or Brooklyn, you might not get too much info on Greenwood’s latest. She’s been concentrating on smaller art installations and local shows, maybe as she stews for her [...]

Justin Bond’s Lustre

The show is a cabaret-style revue, featuring a number of transgendered performers including Our Lady J, Glenn Marla, Nathan Carrera, [...]

Jenny Hoyston’s Lesbians Has a Bunch of New Songs

With her many solo/side projects, it can a little tough to keep track of Jenny Hoyston. Her last record, “the Hallways of Allways,” with William Elliot Whitmore, was a country success, and it’s mellow acoustic melodies were quite charming. With her band Lesbians getting the most attention lately, their playful, godessized, lezbo-rific songs are funny [...]

Youth Pride Weekend

All the rampant nipple sweat in Pride weekend makes you think, “what about the kids?” Where can they go and just be themselves with other like minded queer youth? The Broadway Youth Center has put together a schedule for the pocket queers and it makes me wish I had known about their shizz when I [...]
