Scene Out

Hello m’dears, mOther here!

Seems another friend of Dorothy’s – I’m thinking of the big feline variety –got a ruby red slipper up the clacker this month and consequently booted from the home of party… but one isn’t really surprised by that. I wonder if they’re having a good whine about it? To be sure, to be sure it was amusing, but not quite as amusing as the next pearler… (more…)

Perth’s pink party scene is about to get a whole lot hunkier when Hunk, the night, hits Connections Nightclub on Saturday September 6. Yes, the bare chest brigade will be out in force as CNC presents a night of testosterone fuelled beats headlined by Buenos Aires babe DJ Ariel.

‘It’s that big gay boy party scene thing but with bigger tougher sounds and hotter sweatier men,’ said Connections Nightclub owner Tim Brown. ‘But seriously, it does look to be really, really good and with a lot more edge.’ (more…)

Hello m’dears, mOther’s queer – clearly. But seriously, how are we all little ones? Good? Good.

STYLEAID – wasn’t it just fantastic?! Few little pull ups though – unless you’re a girl, running around with half a chicken’s arse glued to your face isn’t fashion, it’s just sad. Especially if you’re going to go in a shirt and pants – ho-hum, yawn – boring! Neither is not washing your hands after you pee a cool thing! Nor has it even been! And I don’t care whose beau you are, wash those damn hands after handling your murkin! But on a plus note – the clothes! Fabulous. Good to see Material Boy up there, especially with all the personal dilemmas currently occurring. It was also nice to see Str3z actually wearing clothes for once too. And congratulations to WAAC for raising so much damn cash! (more…)

Hello m’dears, mOther here!

First off, congratulations to Miss Vene-Mous of the stunned mullet haircut and foghorn voice who won – yes, won – Death By Drag at Connections Night club. By all reports her make-up did improve drastically by the end of the comp’ (a little shading never hurts does it darl’) and now one hopes she goes out and gets new hair with the cash prize she took home. Yes, the stunned mullet dates so quickly. The mullet, it ain’t even a Gucci…! (more…)

Hello m’dears, mOther here!

Oh, I’m sorry… are you looking for gossip? Well, you’ve certainly come to the right place. Yes, there be gossip here. But first? The low down from around town.

The STYLEAID Photographic Exhibition sashays into The Turner Gallery on Friday, June 6. It’s a brief tease before the main event on Friday July 18 – yes, STYLEAID is coming folks (www.styleaid.com.au). How fabulous will you look? (more…)

Hello m’dears, mOther here!

If patience is a virtue then clubbing must be a virtuosic pursuit, particularly with all the little dens and havens around town shuffling much anticipated dates around and back and… well, all over the place. So, mOther apologises on behalf of those whose events were plugged last issue but didn’t occur. They will happen… and just think how character building it might have been to be loitering in a back laneway in Northbridge dressed as a chicken, bowl of fruit or some similarly odd attire. Be patient little ones – the freaks shall inherit the Perth. (more…)

Hello kids, mOther here! Yes, seems those dear old dears at OUTinPerth have given me some free reign here at the paper, and what better way to look after the little ones then to tell them where to go, what to do and how to do it! So, listen to your mOther because, after all, mOther knows best! So, April… here’s the lowdown: (more…)

Back due to popular demand – Uncle Aram returns! And with a very, very big grin plastered across his face, having come ‘straight’ from the Burlesque Shakedown at the Bakery. Hosted by Sugar Blue Burlesque – who first caught my attention at last year’s Pride party – it was a night of dance, comedy and some very, very sassy ladies. The Burlesque scene has historically embraced all things queer, and in turn been embraced by many queer things, so it’s great to see Perth catching up with the rest of the world’s emerging revival of the art form. These latest gigs were totally sold out, so if you plan to see more in the future, get in quick – you won’t be disappointed. (more…)

Happy New Year!

I’ve been reading the horoscopes, and from all accounts, 2008 is a year to party, so go easy at work and make sure you have some energy left for the important things – good friends, good people and good times!

Summer is your time to shine. If you don’t have a tan, fake it (is orange the new black?) and get yourself out there.

If you haven’t already, get yourself to the Court and sample the cuisine from the new kitchen. It’s definitely date night food in the restaurant - the potato gnocchi is to die for and rumour has it they poached the very nice head waiter from the very posh Jackson’s just up (Beaufort) street in Mount Lawley. Of course the pizza and tapas out in the beer garden isn’t half bad either. (more…)

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas. I know this because there are more gays than usual shopping at Ikea.

Christmas, Hanukkah and a bit of Eid al-Adha – truly is the season to be jolly. As the festive season rolls on that glowing ember we call the sun burns brighter than ever during the day and balmy summer nights herald the start of the Holidays – there’s nothing in the world like a Perth summer.
