 We can be disappointed by the real Academy Awards but Portland is great at making shunning the mainstream in favor of our own winners. Homomentum‘s Gaycademy Awards will be just such a show. We have all been enthralled by the last five boldly themed shows and Saturday should be no different with a double dose of surprise out of town guests Jukie Sunshine and Alysia Angel as well as […] Aw, Valentine’s Day can be so cute you throw up in your mouth a little. And who knows what to expect from those freaky performance artists at Homomentum when they take on the pink and red clashing holiday. Puke is not out of the question, especially when organizer and emcee Max Voltage makes the claim that this month’s Love Bugs has the biggest lineup yet with Under the Radar, […] Double Down Gets Raided! Welcome back from the bay! (at least temporarily) DJ Puppet, (who founded the original Booty night!!) will be joining local heroes Mr Charming (Gaycation) and Stormy (DeLicious, amongst others) on the wheels of steel at Double Down on Saturday night! Dykes, dudes, queers, fags, drags, pirates, cats? Shiver me’ timbers, get down and boogie and give up the Booty! Double Down Gets Raided! It […]  Trans Revolution dance party returns to Crush tomorrow Just because you are trying to stick to your New Year’s resolution of not drinking, or at least drinking less, doesn’t mean your social calendar should suffer. We may be experiencing the post-holiday doldrums of grey and rainy January but there is still plenty of queer excitement left in the humid air. This weekend sees at least 3 big events, the 3rd anniversary of the popular smut fest Dirty Queer, the return of the genderiffic Trans Revolution dance party and the continuation of the popular Homomentum performance cabaret.

But Portland queers are all about taking over every kind of dance, from country line to disco queendom. We just like to bust a move. That’s why Under the Radar‘s Em Connor and (qPDX contributor) Erin Rook decided to host Swagger: A Queer Dance Movement. Continue reading »  Airport security will never be the same The holiday season brought us a special Homomentum performance featuring the cold and snappy celebration of all things queer and seasonal. And you can catch just a glimpse of the white winter wonder with our Snowpocalypse photo gallery. Performances included a very special TSA burlesque from KT Kusmal and Venus Envy, a final performance from drag queen provocateur Champagne, and a rendition of the Tchaikovsky’s Sugar Plum Fairy dance from Catitude.

In memorium of last year’s December arctic blast the dancing queers are here to show off their ice princess steps with Snow Queen MC her/himself Max Voltage. But you won’t be cold for long when the heat of burlesque performers Pigeon Von Tramp and Portland’s burlesque diva Sahara Dunes steam up the frosty windows. Continue reading »  'Fame Monster' album covers Friend of qPDX Katey Pants had some great insights to offer on Lady Gaga‘s new album Fame Monster and she so graciously allowed us to share them here. Obviously, I’m already smitten with the new music video for Bad Romance but what do you think of the new release? Continue reading »  Delilah Sinn teases with her rubber ducky routine Saturday’s second installment of Homomentum: Timewarp Talent Show hit the E Room like a ton of bricks and we have the snapshots to prove it. Host Max Voltage was charming as ever in spectacles and rainbow suspenders, introducing a cadre of fun, if not particularly thematic, acts. Continue reading »  Homomentum's Timewarp Talent show this Saturday Last month’s inaugural Homomentum installment was a freaky success and this sophomore expedition into our past this Saturday should be just as enjoyable. I can’t wait to see some mall hair, and stiff high bangs when the folks from Pants Off Productions bring on the Timewarp Talent Show. This month’s performance pleasures include burlesque from Jodi Bon Jodi and Venus Envy, hip hop dance from Under the Radar, and the dragtastic spectacle that is Feyonce. Continue reading » |
