I’m getting even more lazy… But I managed to drag myself out of bed with a little help from a quarter of Aderall to go see one of my HELLA twinkhood idols; Brontez Purnell.

Brontez is a queer activist & punk-rock musician who grew down in Oakland, California. Initially finding notoriety through the band ‘Gravy Train’ and later in the NAMBLA inspired band (jk!) Younger Lovers.

I arrive at Wayfarer’s Studio in Bushwick not to witness his musical ability but for a good ol’ queer reading and not the shady kind.

Sorry for the dodgy camera work and editing!!!

ORDER THE NEW ISSUE OF FAG SCHOOL HERE!!!!!!

Special mention goes to Max Steele.

Readers: Kat Case, Terry Clifton, Brontez Purnell, Cristy C. Road, Max Steele, Jessica Strang, Joseph Whitt.

The reading was a collaboration with the Essential Hues art show. Essential Hues is a collaborative group show featuring the work of Adee Roberson, Anna Luisa Petrisko, Caitlin Sweet, Caroline Paquita, and Sam Lopes.

Here are some images from the function;

I’ was just a surfing before bed and came across the work of Ves Pitts. Primary working with drag queens, queers, radical faeries & other ‘outsider’ artists and performers. His work dealz with gender identity & performance through photography. Check out his work here: http://tinyurl.com/8yh4ebf

Also this wonderful interview from ‘Let Them Talk Live’ I could listen to his voice oh for days!!!

TOM FORT – A Day on the Beach

BRIAN KENT- I’m Not Crazy

SEAN ENSIGN – Disappear

BARB@ZUL – I don’t care

REPRISE – BARB@ZUL – Midnight In Berlin

Usually I kinda hate this Euro-style-Berlin-Druggie-Tattoo’d-cum-dumpster kind of vibe but something about this just kept me watching. Like a filthier Hercules and Love Affair you know you would have way more fun with these children and probably reconnect you with your drug habit. Also their name is truly awesome!!!! Jels!!!
