Homo Thursdays Are the New Fridays Anyway
Posted by Marjorie Skinner on Thu, Jun 12, 2008 at 9:07 AM
Pride Weekend is almost upon us, but unofficially it's already started. Tonight is your last night to pre-party (don't tell me you're trying to save yourself)! You'll find a schedule of queerish activities here, but my money is on Shake It!, a double dance party at Boxxes and Red Cap, with DJs Brad, Catalyst, and Jason Wann spinning '80s music and then some. Boxxes doesn't even open until 5, though, so tide yourself over in the meantime with this rainbow-tastic and downright soothing Wax Stag video for "Short Road," in which fluffy dogs, owls, unicorn dolphins, and molars all peacefully coexist in a harmonious cartoon-cloud wonderland. (For some reason, trees don't seem very welcome.) Don't miss the pervy castle/church thing that likes to tongue on its rainbow moat.
