SickeningGlasgow

Hosted by the always gorgeous AMY C ZING, who was kind enough to showcase her own singing talents through a mic, drowning out my sad attempts at carol singing. Amy’s Midnight Mass showcased some of the finest talent that Glasgow has to offer, with performances from FRANS GENDER (performing Jingle Bell Rock as a star fit to top any tree, and showing us that you can neck twelve shots during a lip sync and still be coherent), LACY RAIN (serving us a fierce AF Oogie Boogie from Nightmare Before Christmas; never before have we seen Oogie man turned into Vogueing man while whipping a high ponytail!), and the trouser twitchingly sexy KIM KHAOS (bringing old school glamour and amazing burlesque to our fine city).

A fantastic night chocked full of drag, burlesque, music, drag and overall amy-c-zing performers (see what we did there?!)

Barbershop Duo by Allan Craig

One of the best things about being gay is that you get to have sex with other men. For me, this was a crucial selling point when it came time to come out. It took me roughly thirty seconds to make the decision to come out. Here’s how I got there;

Me: Oh, I’m just not sure I want to come out as gay! Inner Gay Voice: You get to have sex with men. Me: I’m in.

I should say, for reference, that my…

Accompanied by his long suffering sidekick Friedrich Hollandaise, Joe took us on a journey through the songs from the baddest villains in show business.

The duo’s repertoire ranged from the spectacularly performed ‘Poor Unfortunate Souls’ from the Little Mermaid, turning right at Phantom of the Opera and closing the show with the most heartbreaking rendition of George Formby’s ‘When I’m Cleaning Windows’.

This witty, camp cabaret duo are  not to be missed!

Special thanks to Glitter and Grind Review and The Polo Lounge for allowing us access to this fabulous show xx

We got to join them at Katie’s Bar, Glasgow – the third in their five-bar jaunt around the city centre – where they enjoyed a few drinks and showed of their sexiest rubber!

As well as being a blogger (be sure to check out his blog), Chris is also a self confessed fitness addict with an amazing pair of legs. Don’t believe us? See for yourself…

The Struggle is Real

by Jozef Hamilton

  So, this is something I thought I would be writing in much better circumstances.

  I had initially planned upon writing about my struggles with anxiety and mental health one year on from my previous article for the better. Funnily enough, that was the last piece of writing I have done in almost exactly one year to the posting date, so forgive me if these old bones are rusty.
