Brightest Young Things


Here it is. This is the weekend that you will start off right with Cinco de Mayo. I'm not kidding when I say that you should be drunk already.  Margarita should be splashed on your work outfit and make sure that you are eating nachos all day. (Ed. note, my family invented nachos. Fuck you if you don't believe me. My abuela, Mónica, that's MO-nica like Mo'nique, you gringitos [it's a term of endearment, prom] preserved a nacho inside a glass cube to remind everyone. JK, but it's the truth. Proof is in the tortilla chip.)

This is also the weekend where you will enjoy art and poetry. You will also ::fingerscrossedsohard:: get fucked all over town at the many dance nights or after the fancy ass DJ set at the W Hotel. Just don't get too crazy because on Sunday you will need to prep for an extravaganza of coffee and bikes.  This is also the weekend where you will tone it all down at the theater (read thee-a-ta).

Welcome to your weekend.

Thursday

Remember the olden days when sculpture was stationary? Get ready for a blast to the future with SOUND SCULPTURE at Artisphere.

You are the dancing queen, young and sweet, only seventeen.ABBA, BALTIMORE.

Friday

What's that lurking in your closet? Your lost sense of ethics (#dark)? A dead body (#darker)? Nope, it's an art monster. Get down at Pleasant Plains Workshop for an art show of  cyclopses and Cthulhu and gorgons and el chupacabras.

Lady Drummers will be rocking out at the Fridge along with some awesome DJ's from Anthology of Booty.

Who isn't into a nice 70's style mustache? Get your leather daddy fix at RAW.

Saturday

Buddy Wakefield is a superterrific, awesome, critically-acclaimed (and queer), world-champion slam poet. Check his flow at the Fridge.

Like Joey to Dawson, DJ Matt Bailer is about to make your 90's cuddle fest of emotions a reality at Peach Pit.

What about an awesome DJ set from Cansei De Ser Sexy, at the W? So international. So glamorous. So sexy. So drunk.

Sunday

Oh.My.Shit. You need to get a bike by, um,  today, and skip your coffee. Here's the plan. You are about to pound a coffee, ride to another coffee shop, pound another, and repeat four more times.  IT'S A FUCKING COFFEE BIKE CRAWL. You will be so jazzed on coffee and adrenaline that the rest of the day will stream by on autopilot. The coffee will wear off right before bed, so you'll even avoid that mid afternoon headache/drowsy time. Dreams come true today.

It's also the last weekend to check out the DC production of "Magnificent Waste" directed by John Moletress.  The play features a young twink in pink undies laying spread out on top of a pile of candy.  Also, lots of drugs and bisexual threeways. Check out our review by Sam Blodgett hereHalf-price tickets at goldstar.com make for a cheap date.

If you need more, you can find everything your queer heart has ever desired, on AllCity

JVB gif's are from here.
