She’s Crowning! She’s Crowning!

Tonight is going to be a very lucky Friday the 13th for one drag queen in Texas. (Or in reality, an awesome Saturday the 14th because this show is gonna go laaaaaate.) Tonight, the Top 10 contestants will be revealed to compete for the big crown in the Miss Gay Texas America Pageant onstage in the Rose Room at S4. Expect plenty […]

Brunch Of The Week: Time For Your Morning Beer

There’s nothing quite as soul-soothing on a late Sunday morning as a plateful of biscuits and gravy. Yeah, we know: Carby carb carb carb. And it’s not exactly haute cuisine, either. So pull your pinkies in and get ready to hold a coffee cup like a burly construction worker, because Barbec’s isn’t the kind of place you go for quiche […]

A Little Babs’ll Do Ya

Hope you like theater, because we’ve been covering a lot of it this week. But we’re not apologizing. Instead, we think of it as a dual public service. You get to learn about fantastic gay-interest productions and escape the July heat of Dallas at the same time. Win-win. This Sunday, Uptown Players presents Blake McIver (who’s currently starring in their production of Priscilla, Queen […]

No More F*#king ABBA! (OK, Maybe A Little)

The best drag queen road-trip movie ever (sorry, To Wong Foo) makes for one of the best stage musicals ever, too. Go figure. We’ve seen the Broadway version of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert and loved it (especially the part where they pulled us onstage to dance in a musical number). But we’re thrilled to see it on a smaller scale with […]

Interview With A Vamper

Too much content! That’s what we wake up in a cold sweat screaming every night because damn if there isn’t more fabulous entertainment than we’ll ever possibly be able to consume in one lifetime. So we expect more night terrors this week now that Hey Qween! is back on our radar. We first heard about the YouTube show back in 2015 and kind […]

Yeah, Butt…

Hard to believe that only 15 years ago in Texas, you could be arrested for backing your peach into an eggplant. Or vice versa. But it’s true. On June 25, 2003, sodomy was illegal. However, on June 26 it was no longer considered criminal activity (unless maybe someone forgot to shower). The landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision and its effect […]

Cheers To Being Gay!

Congrats on the new puppy! Hope wine makes you horny. Vanjie! Vanjie! Vanjie! So much to say, so many wine bottles to say it on. This Pride season, Barefoot has kicked off Barefoot Bestie Labels for three of the winery’s most popular varietals: California Pinot Noir, Pinot Grigio and Rosé. Choose from one of six pre-selected LGBTQ-centric phrases (You always leave a […]

If You Can’t Stand The Heat, Get In These Kitchens

We love to cook. Not as much as we love to eat out, of course. However, when the mood strikes us we can be pretty damned creative sporting nothing but an apron, a can of Crisco and a strategically placed kitchen utensil or two. (Oh, wait, wrong room in our house.) Yet as much as we enjoy having friends over […]

Orange Is The New BINGO!

Vacation used to be the only thing we planned weeks or months in advance. Yet now we have to use the same strategy for Gaybingo because it’s gotten so darn popular. Case in point: Seats are already selling quickly for Orange You Glad It’s Gaybingo? on July 21st (more than four weeks away!). Of course, the all-things-orange-themed night features everything you’ve come to […]

Let The Music Go To Your Head

Ready to take a trip back to the 1980s and 1990s? Then you simply must snag tickets to MetroBall 13. Benefiting the Greg Dollgener Memorial AIDS Fund (GDMAF), this annual music-filled extravaganza welcomes dance/pop acts Exposé and Shannon as headliners for the one-night-only event at S4. More than 700 people are expected to attend, so you grab all your friends and plan to meet new ones while […]
