GAYLETTER

To be honest I’ve never been to this Sunday night party. I guess it’s because the thought of going out on a Sunday to my local fills me with utter dread for how my liver will feel the next day. Well this Sunday things might change, prepare to take your ass to Eastern Bloc for a very special occasion. This month’s Marinate “welcomes the legendary DJ:” Sammy Jo (pictured) who’s usually “opening for Scissor Sisters & tearing up Barcelona.” Also Djing is resident Dandylion from his “Boutique Jukebox.” Hosting the evening is Rica Shay, who’s “charm & talent have been winning him fans across the country, as the fresh new gay rapper on the block...” Alright! Special $4 Vodkas & $4 Miller Highs. It’s the perfect Sunday night...for the unemployed.  —Abi

You probably heard about Frankie Sharp’s new party FRIDAY in the last letter, but this week’s edition is extra special. Why? Well for one, GAYLETTER is guest hosting — yes hunty, we’ll be poppin’ bottles and shit all over that mother fucking club — and one of our favorite rappers is also performing: LE1F. If you haven’t heard of LE1F then you should check your hearing, maybe get a cochlear implant, or at the very least fix your Internet connection, cos the dude has been blowing up all over the www. What else is in store? Well, DJ Nita and Carlos Jadraque will be on the decks for most of the night, drink prices are reasonable, and when I was there last week there was a lot of weed smoke blowing around the room...so that’s nice. There’s also a bunch of other co-hosts for the evening, but I ain’t going to list them all cos that would just be boring. All you need to know is that we’ll be there, you’ll be there, every dude you’ve slept with in the last 2 years will probably be there, including the next one. It’ll be a blast.  —tom

Kitty is a queer party started by Erica Kenia and Rachel Rudy that has been around for a while at the Wreck Room. Now in 2013, David Sokolowski (who’s also Djing) has been asked to curate for the entire month of February.  He’s named the month of events Cumaraderie. David expects the party will be filled with drag queens, “performance artists” and “homosexual sleaze.” Paul Leopold (who is guest-hosting the night) tells me that “the space is prime Bushwick location and it’s going to attract hot punk hipster boys who can’t be bothered going into Manhattan...it has plenty of space to dance and cruise.” Those hipsters are so lazy, they can’t even travel to get ass. Also, I hear there will be deep-fried risotto balls and campy porno playing on the big screen. Good luck trying to find a trashier party than this on a Thursday night in the BK. Don’t miss it, you dirty slut ;)  —Abi

Last December, during the holidays, I took a real trip to the BK to guest host this party: The Carry Nation. I did a little pre-party before I went, I heard there was going to be laser lights, so I called a few friends and said we need some hallucinogenics... By the time we arrived at the party we were ready to carry. This time around there won’t be laser lights, but Dj Nita (half of the DJ duo The Carry Nation) told me “it’s back at The Spectrum, so it’s gonna be another night of dark/sexy/tribal/dance.” Ok cool, having a tribal concept is totally ratchet. Other DJs for the night include DJ Will Automagic who shares his DJ set with Nita & guest DJ Tigga Calore. Also guest hosting is artists Desi Monster. Ending at 7am, trust their beats will keep you going for a long time, just make sure you are ready to dance, these bitches will be carrying until dawn...  —Abi

“Dear New York, This is your new Friday night” exclaims Frankie Sharp about his new weekly party, at Santos Party House. We’ve been looking for something new to do on Friday night for a while...thanks Frankie. For their first edition “Grimes video ho and warrior prince$$ of LA,” Brooke Candy (pictured), will perform live. If you haven’t heard of Brooke, YouTube that chick right now. She’s sick!  Frankie tells us the party will be essentially “Westgay but on a Friday. GoGo boys and girls. Handsome sluts in cages looking like warriors and girls giving T&A with machetes.” Love the  sound of that. As much as we enjoy Westgay you can’t really cut loose like you can on a Friday. DJ Carlos Jadraque and Nita will provide beats for the upstairs crowd with guest hosts: Casey Spooner, Nasty Pig, Amy Cakes, Ms Fitz, Josephine Halle B., Signe Pierce, William Francis, Early Ross and The House of Mugler. Downstairs DJs Rizzla Joseph and Trotto Junior will be hanging with hosts: VFILES, House of Ladosha, Ruth Gruca, Junglepussy and Aaron Kolfage. That’s ALOT of cunty huntys under one roof, my god.  —tom

Yes! We now have a NSFW TUMBLR: GAYLETTERXXX. We’ve been posting sexytime pics to our GAYLETTER Facebook page for ages, but we were continuously running into problems. Facebook is like the Mormon Church when it comes to anything even mildly sexually suggestive — we’ve been suspended from posting on our page about four times — fucking prudes! Thank god for Tumblr, on our new site we can post all those pics too raunchy for Zuckerberg to handle. This Friday we’re celebrating the site launch with an XXX party at Eastern Bloc. There will be porn stars galore, go-go boys and a bunch of XXX toys to give away. We encourage you to throw on your slutiest outfits — hey we’re always looking for new content! See you there you fucking whores. xoxo  —t&a

INTERRACIAL turns 17! One more year and we can legally drink in Canada and Australia and Europe and Asia...and pretty much everywhere else in the world except America. But fuck it we’re gonna drink before then, cos’ that’s how a delinquent does it. Join us, along with special co-host — and King of Banjee boy realness — AB Soto for a night of Interracial interactions. I’ll be djing, along with Angelo Tursi (we miss you darl), Abi and Mossy will be floating around, stealing wallets to keep our Kickstarter going (donate, donate, donate). We implore all you bad bitches to be there. You deserve a night out, you really, really do — when was the last time you got some action? Just remember what Martin Luther King used to say: “young, old, black or white, sucking dick is a human right!”  —tom

Last time I went to the Pyramid was for Gio's new magazine launch, Satanica. I went down to the basement (which is also where the party is taking place) and I thought to myself, WOW this place smells like ass and tonic. I know Pyramid helped define the drag and gay scenes in the 80's, come on, you'd think by now the ass smell would go away. After a couple of drinks I decided to just enjoy myself and focus instead on the talented performers. Which brings us to Brother Fucker. Our dear friend Gio Black Peter brings us a one-night-only party, which he tells us will be "80% dark room and 20% dance floor." He is expecting "sum super sexy young sluts," if you know Gio, you should believe him that he'll bring just that. DJ sets by Black Peter and Tyler Stone. I am so curious to see what Gio is going to do, all I know for sure is he'll likely drop his pants in public, probably for the first time in 2013 (what we're 11 days in... that sounds about right). You won't want to miss that, oh brother!  —Abi

I see Spunk magazine mainly at McNally Jackson bookstore, it’s a smart art publication, full of delightful content, that’s now on its 3rd issue. The Spunk crew are throwing a party at Nowhere bar this Friday. The magazine is bringing us the adorable performer, and king of “Banjee Realness,” AB Soto who will be there for the premiere of his new video “Hotboy” at 10pm. We hung out with AB in Palm Springs a few months ago. We ran into each other past 2am at the diner in the Ace Hotel. We were about as sloshed as you might expect, chowing down on some fries with our P.S. crew, transfixed by AB’s backpack. It was made out of a plastic baby. It sounds a bit weird I know, but it was actually quite something. Which come to think of it, is a good way to sum up AB — a bit unusual at first glance, but totally sexy and wonderful once you get to know him. Music for the night will be provided by DJ/hosts Aaron Tilford and Aaron Cobbett. There’s also $5 well drinks, after 15 of these you’ll likely share my feelings about spunk in general.  —tom
