    Baby drag nearly kills herself - but miraculously she survived unscathed so you can laugh

    On Saturday night in Dragon (one of Dublin's gay bars) they were having a competition for "baby drags" and one contestant really threw herself into her performance. In fact she threw herself off the stage by accident! And that may not sound very dramatic, unless you are familiar with Dragon and it's very very hight stage! It runs over the bar on scaffolding and is probably ten feet tall so it's miraculous that this queen escaped unscathed. But somehow she did (apparently she got back up shortly after and continued on) so feel free to cackle.

    Or you could just watch this:

    Bunny and Mr Pussy in conversation with director Michael Scott

    As part of a series of free events in association with the Dublin Gay Theatre Festival, tomorrow afternoon in the Exchange Collective Arts Centre (on Exchange St Upper in Temple Bar) theatre director Michael Scott will host an informal "audience with" style discussion about drag with our own Bunny, and the legendary Mr Pussy.

    Sunday May 5th, 3pm.

    "Veteran cross dressing entertainer Alan Ambsy (aka ‘Mr Pussy') and Northern Ireland's Drag Artiste, Chris Rowan, (aka ‘Bunny') explore their lives as performance artists throughout the decades in Ireland. Drag is a genre that kept gay life visible and built bridges of acceptance between mainstream society and the gay community. Did it contribute to a stereotype or is it a radical expression of identity in the arts.

    Theatre Director Michael Scott hosts 'an audience with' type informal discussion with our two guests in the first of a series of three audience based discussions in The Exchange as part of the Free Programme of the Tenth International Dublin Gay Theatre Festival.

    This is a free event - no pre-booking necessary and all are welcome.

    Start time: 3pm (Duration 55 mins)"

    Fuck the lot of them

    Last night my friend Buzz O'Neill, well known club promotor and stalwart of the gay scene, was violently gay bashed outside The George by four asshole who jumped out of a taxi and beat him and spat on him while calling him a "faggot". GCN spoke to Buzz about it.

    Of course people like the Iona Institute and all the other assholes, who claim they aren't homophobic but campaign to have gay people treated differently than other citizens, can take much of the blame for the fact that assholes like these feel they can violently assault gay people, because it feeds a culture where gay people are treated differently and seen as "other" and "less".

    Fuck these assholes, but also fuck the Iona Institute, fuck David Quinn, fuck Lucinda Creighton, fuck the churches, fuck the Irish Times' John Waters (and while I'm at it, fuck the Irish Times for giving him a platform) and all the rest. Fuck the lot of them.

    And please excuse my French, but those are righteous "fucks".

    Uniquely Dublin

    You may remember this video that I posted some time ago which was made by my gays Oisín and Gary. Well the video has been shortlisted in the Uniquely Dublin competition which asked people to submit work - video, photography, animation, painting, slogan, song... anything - that celebrates Dublin today. The top prize of €10,000 will be decided by public vote and you can see all the shortlisted entries and vote HERE.

    Of course I'm biased so Oisín and Gary get my vote.

    St Patrick's Day, Temple Bar

    Love this picture by photographer Michael Nolan - there's so much going on in it. The cop's face, the flower's in the gurrier's hand (yeah, yeah, I know, maybe he's an innocent flower being banged up by a bad Garda), the guy laughing on the right, the young lad stalking by, hands in pockets, slipping away ("Nuthin' to do with me Mate, I'm just passing") the other guy on the left pleading with the other Garda who is taking his mate away too (?). Or is he declaring his love? "I love you Bud!"

    But this picture also reminds me why wild horses couldn't drag me to Temple Bar on Paddy's Day, or the so-called Arthur's Day. The fear.
