What To Wear To Dinner This Fat Tuesday

Well, here we are again: Another Mardi Gras is upon us. (Or Galentine’s Day if you celebrate.) Luckily, we don’t believe in giving things up for Lent so it’s just another excuse to be crazy and debaucherous among the 342 other days of the year we opt for shenanigans. (Note: We’re not counting the days off we need to recover […]

All Good Things Must Come To An End—Tonight!

Twelve weeks of tucks, sweat, and tears all comes down to one giant finale. And that finale takes place tonight at the Round-Up Saloon and Dance Hall as the ultimate amateur drag competition, The Showdown, comes to its dramatic conclusion. Presented by Absolut Vodka and hosted by Macarena D’Lorenzo and Marissa Kage, the competition started with 15 up-and-coming drag entertainers. […]

Where To Celebrate Labor Gay Weekend

Three-Day Weekend! Three-Day Weekend! Three-Day Weekend! Those four little syllables always bring a smile to our face and a tingle in our testes. So with Labor Day upon us, we know you’ll probably be bouncing from backyard pool to rooftop pool to some daddy’s shower built for seven. But in between getting wet, you’ll probably want to hit up some […]

Sing Out, Sister!

Karaoke lures singers to the stage. And sometimes it lures actually good singers to share their talents. Sure, we love a badly sung song as much as the next gay. But even more we love to celebrate people with true musical gifts who can transform a mere karaoke song into a showstopping number that puts a hush over a crowded […]

Wine Your Way Through The Gayborhood & Cool Off

Hot enough for ya? (It’s OK for you to slap us next time you see us because we, too, are so tired of talking about the heat). But the appropriateness in this situation bears mentioning. Because what better way to beat the high temperatures than with a tall cold glass wine? Even better, multiple glasses of wine! They’ll probably make […]

Travel Tuesday (Sorta): A Cajun Celebration Of Cowboys, Cakes, Carts & Crawfish

Happy Fat Tuesday, everyone! Normally Tuesdays are when we write about travel, but today it’s about a trip to New Orleans without the airfare! We were just in NOLA two weekends ago and we thought we’d had our fill of Mardi Gras shenanigans, but now that it’s the official day, we’re having FOMO. Fortunately, The Round-Up Saloon and Dance Hall […]

They’re Calling Your Number

Queen Bey set a new Grammy Awards record last Sunday. Now this Sunday, you can spend the afternoon with royalty of another kind: Queen B. Queen B Bingo, that is. The Round-Up Saloon brings back the bingo balls this February 12 with hosts Chanel LaMasters and Raquel Blake. Enjoy additional performances by Rico Devine O’Hara and Mahogany Teakwood (damn, we […]
