Rock ‘n’ Roll Fag Bar 2008

It was one of the original queer rock nites it NYC…down in Alphabet City at a club called The World…Dean Johnson was the towering androgynous host that was one of the most ingratiating rockers we’ve ever met. Tonight, a tribute to the tender giant who died last year under “strange” circumstances. Performances by Dean’s bands Dean and the Weenies and The Velvet Mafia…plus, Joey Arias, Michael “Formika” Jones, Miss Guy, *BOB*, Justin Bond, and The Dazzle Dancers.

The 80’s Barbarella obsessed pop group are still together (minus the black dude)! With new album Red Carpet Massacre in tow, and lots of synthey songs like Reflex, Wild Boys, and Notorious, there’s bound to be plenty of cringy karaoke moments for your entire loser retro family…wonder if Rio will be there dancin’ on the floor?

True Colors Tour with Cyndi Lauper + The B-52’s + Indigo Girls + The Cliks

The annual True Colors show returns with a 26 city tour bringing awareness to the plight of the rarely seen GLBT community. What better way to garner support for a species that was once so prevalent, and now so scarce, than to party with the likes of Joan Jett, Regina Spektor, Rosie O’Donnell, and The Puppini Sisters? Save a faggot, buy a ticket to see Cyndi!
