Here's a Georgia tidbit: I'm watching the show Double Divas, which is about the antics of the owners of a bra store in Kennesaw.

This episode: They're visiting the Cleremont Lounge, the infamous Atlanta strip club. Anyone been there? I've even played there a dozen times or so (completely clothed). The first time was in the early 90s... and this stripper named Blondie got up on stage with us and started shimmying up and down the lead singer's leg, much to his distress (he's gay..lol). Meanwhile, everyone in the club starts slamming their beers back, running to the stage, slapping a dollar bill down and putting the empty can on top of it. Then I saw Blondie's trademark for the first (of many!) times: she went down the stage, picking up each beer can and crushing it between her breasts. I was laughing so hard I messed up the song. Good times, good times.

Holy hell!! There's Blondie!! She's on this episode!! The beer cans can't be far behind

Oh! And now that I've mentioned Kennesaw, I wanna put this out there before I forget-

I'll be part of a panel at Kennesaw State University at the end of March, reading from and talking about my essay in a soon-to-be published anthology. The anthology is called Queer South Rising: Voices of a Contested Place, and examines the ways in which being queer in the South fits together (or doesn't). My essay is called "The Queering Year," and is about me as a teen discovering my own queerness through the Rocky Horror/punk rock culture of Atlanta in 1980/1981.

Come on out! The reading is on March 27th at 2PM.

LOL! Went there a few years ago with friends celebrating a birthday....It's the place for 'shoe show' performers when they retire. The night ended at the Cheetah Club VIP Room.....can you say complete opposites!

Good morning Ga. peaches and peeps!

Gorgeous day here and hope everyone is enjoying their weekend! I just want to mention the "Frida and Diego" installation at the High Museum is well worth the visit. This particular show will only be in Atlanta and they did an extremely good job bringing it all together.
