TRANNY NITE is TONIGHT!

That's right it's TRANNY NITE! Tonight at the Art School, in the Vic Bar, as a fundraiser for the GSA's printing department. Get tranned up! With DJ sets from The Niallist and Lock Up Your Daughters, and performance from Lady Munter and Vanity Von Glow! This is going to be ace :-)

And in the spirit of things, here's a clip sent to me by Steven from Arthur's Landing. This is by one of the biggest pop stars in Thailand (who is straight) and the chorus is "I'm A Lady Boy". Apparently they've got very progressive attitudes to gender roles in Thailand:

Countdown to MENERGY @ The Vic Bar Pt 12: Happy Valentine's Day from Salty Lips

Here's a cheeky wee video from Manchester's top queer electro duo Salty Lips, celebrating alternative sexuality on this international day of love and romance:



Here's their previous video for the song "Smize", that features some recognisable face:

Last ever R-P-Z TONITE!!!

If you're in the Glasgow area this evening, then get yourselves up the Arty!!

That's the Art School, m'dears. For tonight is the last ever party there by RECORD PLAYERZ.



R-P-Z was started at the Art School in 2002 by our good friend DJ Hushpuppy and the similarly kinky minded DJ Hifi Sean. Since then it has played host to countless great DJs and acts (Midnight Juggernauts, Avenue D, Findo Gask, Miami Horror, Van She) and hosted the Glasgow debut of some band called the Scissor Sisters, It's gone on to be the city's second biggest weekly club night (after you know who). God it really does feel like the end of a certain era, eh? Era of what I don't really know, but change is definitely in the air.
