What’s the craziest thing that’s happened during one of Seattle’s
filthiest, sweatiest, most innovative queer dance nights since its
inception at Chop Suey four (already??!) years ago? “Probably the guy
in the chicken-head mask that got his briefs ripped off while go-go
dancing and then stage-dived into a writhing mass of wasted queers too
drunk to catch himouch,” recalls co-founder Marcus Wilson, aka Ursula
Android. Initially born from what Wilson and Co. felt was “a lack of
dance nights/parties for fags that didn’t subscribe to the popular gay
regimemindless, boring house music, high-energy K-hole
nightmares”and “wanting to dance with other gays to music we actually
liked, not just the circuit-party crap the gay bars feel compelled to
play, even though nobody seems to actually like any of it,” the night,
known also for its racy, vintage porn-bedecked posters, has drawn a
crowd that’s a bit more varied than originally anticipated (less
queerpunk/dirt fag, more art fags/hip kids/rad straight allies and
freaks). Tonight, expect it to be a big one. Look out for: Custom
Comeback T-shirts and briefs, nearly naked go-go boys, a
corn-dog-bobbing buffet, and special guest, jolly olde England’s
Tronik Youth. With Miss Toats & Joee Irwin, and DJs Colby B, FITS, and
