gaypartyblog.com gay nightlife scene

This made my day! We were recently featured on the LOGO website on the “Spring Break” playlists page. They are offering a featured playlist called, “Spring Break” that features our first-ever tribute to spring break madness. Users can watch students and other hotties hit the shores, party, and enjoy the nightlife in these full-length films, series, short films, and music videos online.

LOGO is of course the MTV owned network that has some of the best programming for the GLBT community.  The Gay Sketch Show, Sordid Lives, and their music countdowns.  My favorite is Sordid Lives but I am loving Ru Paul’s Drag Race so far this season.

We found there to be lots of great videos on this site and saw one of the hottest guys in a video we had not seen before…  “Allow me to introduce myself… Mr. Right” by the White Tie Affair.  Is this guy single or gay or both?  The videos seem clearer than watching You Tube and you have them all on-demand without having to search for the hot ones… someone has already done that for you! I could not find a way to embed the videos but I am sure that feature is coming.

I am glad to see LOGO supporting the gay club scene!

Could it be that Boy George has lost his mind or that an escort-model was not someone he could trust?  Boy George was jailed last week in London for a 15 months sentence because of a male model/escort accusing him of imprisonment.  Yes, a story of a guy running down the street in his underwear, erotic photos, and bizarre emails.

The boys meet on Gaydar a social networking site for the GLBT mostly used in European countries.  The Singer Boy George also known as George O’ Dowd who has recently been known for his DJing rather than his singing contacted Audun Carlsen on Gaydar.com to take some modeling pictures (or escorting perhaps?).  Audun Carlsen did an interview with a Norwegian Magazine where he said that Boy George wanted more than to take pictures and that he refused to have sex with him and that he was high on lots of “cokain” cocaine.  He went on to say that refusal was too much for the Culture Club star and that he and a buddy tied him up where he had his hand cuffed somehow hanging from a hook on the wall.

The whole story sounds rather crazy to me.  I mean you have a guy known as an escort or is he a model or whatever he is and an ex-pop singer now DJ.  The 29-yr old boy from Kristiansand acts as if George was the only one on Cocaine or drugs… yeah right.  Honey that would be like getting in Willie Nelsons RV and not getting high on the herbs smoking in there.  Turns out they were both on the white powder.

Could he have stolen pictures from George?  All I know is that the “model” is much hotter in the photos that Boy George took.  And where is the other guy involved in beating him up and tying him to the wall or is he just embarrassed to admit he was involved in some kind of crazy shoot with Boy George.

The eighties superstar had a tour planned last year in the United States but was not granted a visa at the time.  He was known for being out quite a bit in the NYC club scene before his return to the UK…he maybe should have stayed in the US.  It seems like a court sentence that was unfair given the circumstances of both of the men (or boys in this case).

This was nothing when you think of the Party Monster club kids or the horrible things that happened to Bryan Kocis of Cobra Video.

When you live in a city where everything is not done by taxi this list might give you a few tips you can use.  When I was in Vegas a few weeks ago I noticed lots of people being pulled over for DUI or DWI.  Vegas is normally know for more cab fares but rental cars can save money unless you get pulled over. You just have to use your instincts I guess when it comes to knowing what you will get into drinking that night even on vacation. This is more of a survival guide than a top ten list when it comes to going out drinking and what to watch out for or do to have less drama.

Keep in mind I’m not giving out advice to drink and drive or to get so intoxicated that you can’t stand up straight.  I do know many get DWI’s who do not deserve it who have had only a few drinks.  Some police officers use drinking and driving to pull over expensive looking cars so they will get overtime when the DWI/DUI goes to court.  You have to know your rights and know how to act when you do plan on a night of drinking.

Recently, a big scandal has broken out between the Austin Police and the gay bars in Austin. I first designed these tips to help prevent something bad happening from the findings of their DWI survey for that area. These tips can be used in any city not just in the big cities of  Texas,  Los Angeles (think Heather Locklear and Lindsey Lohan), Orlando, Anywhere, USA this can apply.  You may not like these tips but here they are:

1. Dance it off. Afterhours are the best cure for not drinking and driving.  The jerks making it hard to get dance permits could prevent most of the drinking and driving by allowing dancing until at least 4am.  If you’re going to Oil Cans on a Saturday you can stay dancing I think until 3:30am or 4am.  That’s an hour at least to dance your ass off and detox… much better than what the police officers have to offer.
2. If you’re going to get drunk then rent a hotel room (in advance) but be careful walking to it you could get public drunk.  They are obviously on ALERT for the Austin gay bars.  You might be able to get a room at the bathhouse or a hostel if the hotel is too expensive (you probably can’t get a room anywhere without prior reservations if you are too intoxicated or you could be their liability).
3. Drink a Red Bull before you leave the club.  The first thing police do when they pull you over is flash a bright flashlight in your face – a Red Bull can help take out some of that drunken glare.
4. Change your route back or goto an afterparty on the way home (i.e. The department stopped 7,000 drunk drivers with the majority of them being at Mopac and Interstate 35.)  Better yet, find a trick to go home with and spend the night lol.
5. Take your gay flag, pride and Obama signs and stickers off your car.  Sorry but you will stick out like a sore thumb on the road and they do “profile” you no matter what you think.  Hey, this might also keep your car from being keyed.  There are some crazies out there.
6. You know that wrist band the club gives you or stamp on your hand.  Before you leave the clubs take it off and lick your other hand to rub the stamp off completely before getting into a car driving or even with someone else driving.  Some clubs that are smart to this profiling will know to have door people cut the bands off when patrons leave at 3am or 2am.
7. Make sure all your inspection stickers and car tag is up to date.  If you can’t afford to keep this shit up to date then you should not even be on the road.  Wait until your welfare check comes in to go clubbin.  Your priorities should be better managed =)
8. Make sure you are not in semi-drag if you are driving on bare tires.  I’ve heard too many stories of fem boys getting flats because they did not take care of their tires and when you’re standing out there in drag like an elephant in a church with the smell of alcohol then you can expect an expensive tow and a free trip to jail.
9. If you do get pulled over then respect the officer.  Most of them drink – I know I have partied and done charity events and many other things (*wink*) with them.  Don’t be defensive or try and be mouthy to them.  Say Yes Sir, No Sir you know like you are in some sort of bondage thing.  They are doing their job in most cases and may even have a quota to meet so don’t be one of the “numbers” be 2,000% respectful.
10. Beware of Wannabes.  A big problem with any club or bar are the “rent-a-cops”.  They are always worse than a real police officer because they have major ego problems and almost anyone who has went to clubs has had a problem with one of these kinds.  They may be mad at the world because they could not get a job with the real police force or mad because they have to deal with drunks and have not gotten laid in months who knows.  Don’t try and make friends with these people just stay away and keep your mouths shut and don’t run from the rentals.  Keep in mind you can sue their private company later if they do something wrong.

No one gets a free get out of jail card.  This is not a monopoly game.  Ask Boy George, Paris Hilton, and Britney Spears on that one.

According to a new list released last week the top Austin bars blamed for drinking and driving come from Downtown Austin. More specifically Oil Can Harry’s and Rain topping the list located in the towns Warehouse district. Supposedly, The Austin Police Department conducted a survey when people got pulled over for DWI suspicion and these were the results.

It’s obvious from this new report coming out of the Austin Police Department that they are either focusing on the traffic from the gay bars or exaggerating the numbers to make rid themselves of gay money in downtown Austin. Austin is one of the most beautiful cities in the country and the gay scene there is definitely worth fighting for. The conservatives in Austin are most likely not happy with the liberals walking around downtown and want to put a stop to it. I noticed lots of ghetto people fighting and raging towards each other over on the “Mardi Gras” street next to the Gayer street on 4th. Police are flat out confused if they say that Oil Can’s and Rain are the problem.

It does not take an expert to tell that the drunken pinheads fighting each other in the streets (maybe they are not driving somehow) on the streets next to 4th are absolutely not coming from Rain or Oil Cans. Then again if the patrons are being pulled over this often from the two gay establishments then they need to either quit drinking so much and making the bars look bad or they need to blame it on another establishment they went to the same night (if they actually get the choice).

Parking is hell down on the 4th and 6th streets anyway in Austin. I recommend car pooling with a designated driver or just cabbing it when you go out in Austin. If you visit Austin then get a hotel downtown that is walking distance to the bars – do not drive to a hotel to save a few dollars. Yes, hotels are expensive in Austin for some freak reason as expensive as hotels in Vegas or on the beach in Florida (why?? I still have not figured out – possibly from all the conventions in Austin and Football games, etc).

The police do not want to scare off the drunken football goers (the tourism) who come to the UT games but they want to make sure people calm down on the drinking and driving from the downtown area. This may be the reason they used the gay bars as the talking points.

If your going to OCH - Oil can Harry’s or Rain then drink less alcohol and drive less.  Drink more water and red bull.

Top 10 list of things to consider when drinking and being alert.

Well you know its a party foul to bring down a party site. What is the world coming to? The site got so messed up and database was so corrupt we just started deleting add-ons and have been down and up for over a week. Hmmm does this remind you of another bigger Gay site that keeps doing the same thing? Ok, so you can now compare us to Gay.com their site has been a clusterfukk ever since they have been trying get it up from their redesign efforts. Good luck with that we certainly know how frustrating this database mess can be!!!

We are glad to be back and will be bringing you the hottest party gossip, news, and seductive photos from our nights out on the town. Currently in Boston tonight to see the Queen of Pop Madonna and then the afterparty from DJ Carl Cox and DJ Enferno and possibly hit up Estate Boston. As you see below that our girl Kristene W will also be singing this Saturday at the Roxy.

BREAKING NEWS (New Orleans, LA)
UPDATE 1: State of emergency declared in Louisiana as Gustav nears.  The hurricane has not made its way through the Cuba area but a State of emergency has been declared.  I would change plans now for Labor Day weekend.

UPDATE 2: NHC Has Gustav making landfall around 8pm (not 8am as stated earlier) on Monday but the outer bands of the storm should be there around 12 hours earlier.

Could Hurricane Gustav Cancel Southern Decadence? Looks like Chi Chi LaRue may be moving her wigs to another city as the winds blow the direction of New Orleans disrupting the big gay Labor Day festivities.

It was exactly this time three years ago that Southern Decadence was going through the same worries with a hurricane headed its way. They had no idea that it would do the damage it did to New Orleans even though the TV meteorologists kept repeating that the flooding was possible. The gays that were supposed to party at the gay version of mardi gras in NOLA either did not go there that year at all and canceled their vacations for Labor Day weekend or they went and got the hell out of town when they were told its time to leave and abandon the city entirely.

This year the 5-day cone issued from the National Hurricane Center on the NOAA website projects that New Orleans is in the track of Hurricane Gustav which could be a Category 4 hurricane. We could see a repeat of Labor Day weekend from 2005 which is three years ago tomorrow. The official National Hurricane Center track has this storm hitting New Orleans as a category 3 or 4 Monday morning at 8 am.

Remember If you have to cancel your trip to New Orleans you can always come to Austin for the weekend. There is Splash weekend going on and that is where all the cute boys are headed anyway. The storms should not reach Austin until after the Labor day festivities. Come on down to Austin and party it up with the big boys of University of Texas nearby. Better be safe than sorry!

You may not even get the chance to be trapped in New Orleans because I have read that they will not allow anyone into the city Friday if this happens.

If a Category 3 or stronger hurricane comes within 72 hours of the city, New Orleans plans to institute a mandatory evacuation order. Unlike Katrina, there will be no massive shelter at the Superdome, a plan designed to encourage residents to leave. Instead, the state has arranged for buses and trains to take people to safety.

Update #2 - JustCircuit.com just sent an email about Southern Decadence to its readers stating “Please take note: all New Orleans Decadence events will take place. Threatening weather from Hurricane Gustavo is not expected to arrive until early Monday morning.” which is accurate but you must consider that a mandatory evacuation order will not be worth the risk of going to New Orleans and being stuck at an Airport or on a bus and risking others lives who live in New Orleans.  I would advise to skip this year and return next year.
