It occurs to me — your nightlife numbskull, your good-times guide — that my Super Ego column this week and its bloggy follow-up, which focussed on some of my fave queer clubs, was a tad phallocentric. Dykes are HOTTT! Including the invisible ones. Here’s an especially lovely lesbian hoedown coming up, with more dyke nightlife delights to come.
Diamond Daggers Disco Thanksgiving
The enormously talented and flexible all-queer-women burlesque troop Diamond Daggers blew naughty minds at the Castro Street Fair and have been perfoming monthly at Fat City lately. Who can deny their death-defying feats of daring dykeness? Not me. This time around, on Sat Nov. 22, they’re presenting a “Disco Thanksgiving” for all you polyester turkeys stuffed with shards of mirror ball and platform giblets.
Oh yes, there’s an especially all-star lineup for this one as well: dark god Vinsantos, “princess of pork” drag superstar Glamamore, fabulously nimble SF Boylesque troupe, local cabaret starlet and “Oakland’s Chocolate Kisses of Burlesque” Alotta Boutte, drag king singer Leigh Crow aka Elvis Herselvis, and many, many more than listable in this infinite webspace. The disco part will be provided by girl-about-town DJ Campbell and the mysterious C’est Jille. C’est chic! Let’s freak!
