NEW COLUMN: Dip of the Day

Yup.

It is time I start terrorizing you with my music choices!
You knew it was coming, it was only a matter of time! (Evil laughter...)

I am going to dip into the very problematic theme of queer music.
I know you can go ostracising me for such a bad choice of words, queer music, what the hell does that mean?
Well, I am not sure myself.
I think definitions will change with each video.
Let us look at the first one, something I found while browsing through my favourites on youtube (yes, I was that bored).




I will actually let this one speak for itself. Now, do you like? 

Activity Checklist

Hi my dears,

two more after pride events popped up so better check your schedule and make room.

If you are a lady and willing, see it this works for you:

WHAT:  AfterPride Party : Ösztrosok

WHERE:

Cooltus Club Bp. V. Teréz krt 55 Budapest, Hungary

WHEN: 9th July, 10 PM


Wait a minute, what is this club? It is just a wink away from Club Underground...Well, let us hope this club has a better reputation.

Another thing is the Zumba event:

WHAT:   AfterPride Dance Night

WHERE: Cooltus Club, same address as above

WHEN: 9th July, 8 pm

DAMAGE: 600 ft

Okay, it is pretty clear now both events take place in the same place: so it is almost the same event, except the motivation: the party is intended for the Pride volunteers, and the dance is intended for just about everyone.

Ok?

XoXo,

Vanity

Some Saturdays are Worse than Others

This Saturday I did something I should not have done. What initially started off as a fun project - to go and see all sorts of downtown bars, hopefully run into people I know, and just hang about as if I just don't care, it got downplayed as a waste of time rather than a means to unwind.
My friend, a proud male breeder, was really excited about going out with me thinking that he would get more lady attention that way. Little did he know: A) If there is any attention - I am the one to either get it or give it, in other words, I am a very selfish friend, B) he had serious hardships finding anyone who is even remotely attractive. Poor guy had no chance to start with. I was equally frustrated.
We went to this place called the Mika Tivadar Mulato and then later to an equally nasty Fogashaz. I have no words to describe misery I encountered.
Meat market is the word. But usually, if you wanna sell some, you usually make it look nice. You do not bring just anything on the table. Even if you do, you pimp it up with whatever you have, highlight the good sides, make the ugly ones invisible and set out to score some. It was a Saturday night, I was not mistaken. These people were actually thinking they might score some looking like that. I will not extrapolate the depths of my disgust I had to overcome when shaking off some what I think was a truck driver who had just finished his 20 hour shift on a hot summer day. Eeeeeewwwwww.

What we witnessed is the absolute lack of any of the above mentioned practices, we were trying hard to see someone even decent looking, but what we saw is the parade of the despair.

Do not get me wrong: I am not talking about simply being ugly. I am talking about not caring about looks.  It is neglecting the possibility to make yourself look acceptable, respectable. The thing is, those people knew something was wrong. You could read it on their faces, disappointment with what they see, as if they painfully realised that what they offer is not a single notch better than what they see of they look around.

We left early enough not to see what happens when they give in and lower each other standard's a couple of notches.

Thank unicorns I went home and had a decent wet dream so I could forget about those horrors.

Do not misunderstand me. I am not telling you not to go there. I am telling you not to go there looking like that, and hoping you can feast your eyes on eye candies, cause the cute ones have simply gone somewhere else.

I believe this tune can describe my sentiment:

RAZZLE DAZZLE Top 3 upcoming events, plus tips for tonight! 24th June

Moving on after the pride, let us see what lovely events await us, so we can all go gaying about.


Before I go for it...


I am imagining AlterEgo as a dog who pooed in its own house, and I need to train it by nudging its nosie into its own poo. How does this feel, doggy!


I was thinking about AlterEgo's slip-out during the pride week. Which one, would they even know what is wrong (if they were reading this)? The punishment is needed. But how?
It would help to issue a public apology.
and a month free entry to those individuals who were denied entry.


However, I suspect they are not even aware of the problem. Just like a dog does not know that it should not poo in its house, unless it gets training.


Here doggy-doo! How does it feel to sniff your own poo?
Ammm, anyway....






Moving on to brighter subjects: partying and gaying about.


Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you a hot list of upcoming happenings!

1. Brutko Diszko

WHEN: 8th July

WHERE: Durer Kert


The super fancy flyer: 





This, my dears, is the it happening of the Budapest queer scene. When I say it, I mean it. You will hear more about it soon. 
All you need to know for now is that it will be super hot, in a place with decent sound system, and a DJ who knows how to spin worthy-of-my-attention-beats. 

2. Chicken Exit

WHEN: 1st July

WHERE: Tundergyar


Here is their flyer. I hope noone will think that cyrillic letters are used in Hungary on regular basis. 

From Jun 26, 2011

This is the 20-something girls' favorite. But this party is not exclusive, it opens its doors to all sexes alike. You will find more women there, so finally we have a decent all girl party! Juhej! Musicwise you may expect dancy trendy tunes, unless they get too deep into obscure indie, which kinda ruins it for me. Different folks, different strokes! 

3. Confetti - Szentivánéji Álom / A Midsummer Night's Dream

Confetti strikes back to bring us this dreamy event.

Be aware that bear and all drinks in general are quite pricey (that is if you are dealing with an average Hungarian incomes), as Orfeum bar is claiming to be somewhat luxurious in comparison to other places. Last time the music was unforgettable, but only because it was so cheap and cheesy. Hope they worked on that, or at least, hope that you do not expect too much of a musical experience when you go there. 

More man than woman. 

WHEN: 25th June

WHERE: ORFEUM

I will come back soon.

Tip for tonight: Night of Museums

It is simple. Get a ticket and go to a lot of museums tonight - find more info here:

The March

Dear all!

I was at the pride! Damn right I was. Proud at the Pride!

Vanity does not give empty promises. I borrowed my friend´s camera, held onto it with my sweaty hands and tried to capture a little bit of what was going on, just so I could bring you a little treat: march mini-report with photos! Yeheah!

This is how it looked like at the beginning, round 3:15 pm, when people were still gathering. Can´t see much more other than that there is quite a decent amount of people, which eventually grew to be round 4000, and it would have been much more if the rest of the marchers were allowed to join the march from Oktogon.

From march

Stuart Milk was there!

From march

He quoted parts of Obama´s annual proclamation of June being the Gay Pride month. At least, I think it was parts of that proclamation, since I could not understand and/or hear it too well. Thanks to my secret source (S.B.), I was informed that just a day before the Budapest March and Milk´s speech, Obama´s spokesperson denied Obama´s 1996 survey, that is, denied that Obama himself filled in the surveys. You can find them here:

http://www.windycitymediagroup.com/gay/lesbian/news/photospreadthumbs.php?APUB=wct&ADATE=2009-01-14&AGALLERY=obama

After my source asked Milk whether he was aware of the repercussions of that information the reply was somewhat dimmed: "it goes back and forth" (this is a paraphasis, so do not go ostracising me for this). Or something like that. It would have been nice to know that such surveys are found more important than just giving them out to assistants to fill them in.

Okay, let us see how it went. I found this lady with a charming tattoo:

From march

And the Eurogames crew: Which reminds me to inform you of the upcoming Eurogames next year, to be held in Budapest. Oh Yeah!!!

From march

This lady was pretty hardcore on her trumpet, yet she made it look so easy. She did a great job:

From march

This sea of people, all priding at the pride. Spot the cute girl at the lower right bottom of the photo. I wanted to take a picture of her only, but was too shy to ask. Ehhh....

From march

A huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge, several meter long rainbow flag:

From march

Spot the lady in the uniform. I think I saw that outfit in a sex shop. It looks good! Uniforms are sexy!

From march

Kokarda, quite a successful design:

From march

Now this is interesting:  I literally passed under the rainbow. There is an old Croatian short novel (Dinko Simunovic: Duga, 1906), about a girl who wanted to pass under the rainbow, because there was a legend that if she did that, she would turn into a boy. Her motivation was clear: as a girl she was denied possibility to play and run around freely like other children did (namely boys). All she wanted was some equality. It is a sad story, because she died attempting to run under the rainbow - she got stuck in the mud of a swamp and drowned. Had her parents been more understanding and allowing, she would not have suffered such a tragic end. EHhh, sounds familiar...Parents, give your children right to breathe the way they want to!

From march

Like this one, who was not shy to let me take a photo:

From march

Then I met my friend Jodi, who was walking around in a rainbow dress that she made just that day, especially for the pride. She made it with her bare hands. I plan to nominate her for the Homofriend of the Month Award for this month:

From march

After that, at Oktogon square, we met the Haters!!! Oh my! They were fierce, especially this dinosaur at the front. The words he shouted were quite ugly, but they sounded quite ridiculous, as he basically managed to  embarrass himself instead of the marching crowd he wanted to insult. He should be held at a museum.

From march

Austrian drummers made a great atmosphere. Even though police was really helpful all throughout the March, it is a sad and tragic shame that after the March some Haters managed to attack two Austrian marchers and then the marchers were taken by the police for investigation instead of them Haters. That is a bad slip, Police. Otherwise, officers were rather well organised during the March itself.

From march

Then there was this lady, she was rather shy, but she still let me to take a photo:

From march

Maybe a bit off topic, but I will squeeze it in because it is important. I heard of another tragic story, that a day before the march a couple of Roma trannies were denied entry to  AlterEgo club. Shame on you AlterEgo!

For now that is all folks. Hope you enjoyed....

Do not forget that you can still catch the flick tonight at Muvesz Cinema, the theatre show at Komod, and the finishing discussion/workshop is happening at the moment, I guess I was late to inform you of that.

I am like the Terminator: will be back soon!

XoXo,

Vanity

Workshop info

One of today's workshops starts at 4:30 pm, the topic is introduced by Hadley Z. Renkin: An Introduction to Hungarian Sexual Politics. Special guest star:  Stuart Milk. Yup, Harvey's nephew and a famous LGBT activist.

Workshop is in English.

Where: BALINT Haz, Revay utca 16.

The other one starts at 6 pm, same place, with no celebrities, and they will talk about gay march, activism and community building in Hungary. In English.

Go for it. I am busy unfortunately.

Tonight!

Do you dance?

Are you fit?

Do you have a partner?

Actually, you do not need to answer yes to any of the above because tonight several same sex dance clubs join forces to bring you: Zumbaworld Dance Night!

Partners and lessons are provided, so all you need is yourself and a miniscule amount of 800 ft to go!

They say it is fun. Personally, my knee can not take it.

Starts: 9 pm till late hours

Where: Balint Haz, Revay utca 16.

Hurry up and get your dancing shoes!

Thirst for celebrities and some more ranting

Just thinking how Rome Pride had Lady Gaga rocking it on the piano, and Budapest has ammm, nothing similar. Not that I am actually jealous for what they had, but at least some kind of proximity would have been nice.

Maybe next year?
Hopefully, because we have no international pop stars, and if the reason why is that they are damn pricey, no local celebrities are listed on the show list either. Would not it be nice though? It seriously does not need to be Gaga, I am sure there are other musicians who would gladly support Pride with their participation. For a little compensation perhaps. Hint hint.
Ammm, nevermind;)

Look at the main party, the Rainbow party on Saturday evening. I was looking, but I do not even know who the DJ is! This artist anonymousness is slightly annoying!

WHERE IS THE SHOW???

Noone has invited famous names? That was not important? How do we bring together politics, social change and art?

Oh, this brings me to something else. Look at this event:

Stylewalker Night. Friday 7 pm untill Saturday midnight.

I will not go into it with too much detail, but the point is that a bunch of designer clothing and/or objects shops are open  until midnight and you can shop with discounts.

That is on Friday, when secluded parties take place. Well, could not they have pushed this event a week after? I would not mind going shopping actually! AHHH damn. Nevermind.

But then this:

Stylewalker AFTERPARTY. Saturday evening.

Yup, that is the time of the Rainbow party night.

These designers, organizers of this event and shop-owners, all of them together could have been a little bit more supportive and push their programs a week later because some would actually like to participate on both events. Am I too demanding? Maybe, but that is no reason not to demand more!

Anyway. I am sure there are more important things to complain about but still...

Speaking of art and social change, they have added a photo exhibition to the Pride program, see it today and any other pride week day at LIMO CAFE, or where LIMO CAFE used to be: Belgrad Rakpart 9 at 4 pm.

Also, tonight is the free microphone night!

XoXo,

Vanity

Pride Week

I might be as boring as a fly that woke me up this morning, but once of anything good is never enough.

This is the Budapest Pride week. There are plenty of programs.
I have already listed them in one of my posts, so please scroll down, look at the program, and see for yourself what you would like to see and/or participate in.

My highlights for instance:

yesterday's speed dating for women.
today's theater show at Komod theater
tomorrow's open microphone night at Mika Tivadar Mulato.

My concern today is the culmination of the pride week: the march itself. Many of my friends would say, sure, that pride thing is a great thing. Are you going? Naaah, I will just stay at home and watch it from the comfort of my armchair. Then, the following day I will complain that I need to hide the fact that I have a girlfriend because my work colleagues would find it troublesome.
One day you are granted the possibility to be visible and ask for more visibility and you throw it down the drain.
I know what you are thinking, one day???
It should be all days, all the time...
And I agree, it should, but it is not yet, not in Budapest, and there are many little steps to be done in order to get there.
I do not believe in little steps.


Well, I do not believe in your complaining then!

Complain at the right time, at the right spot, when the possibility is given.

Join the march. The more, the merrier.

I will be there!

XOXO,

Vanity

Pride and such

I tried, I gave it my best, but when Gaga opened her speech by referencing her artistic and musical journey, I just  could not keep on watching because I know that what is to follow will seriously infect my brain with a load of useless and pompous nothingness. Somewhere along the way, she openly supports Budapest Pride, and a celebrity doing that is always a good thing.
If you must torture yourself and you are into listening to her ramble (at your own peril):




Surely, she recognizes her audience and will not forget to cheer them, which is always a good thing. Know where your milk is coming from!

Useful Info

Whether this be a not such a pleasant activity, it is good to know that you can go have an anonymous and very quick (15 minutes results) AIDS test for free during the pride week.

WHAT: AIDS test

WHERE: Le Cafe M: , V. district, Nagysándor József utca 3.

WHEN: between 7 and 9 pm, every evening

Go get yourself checked!

TONIGHT!!!

As I have informed you already, tonight is the pride opening party titled Hungaricum, at Capella Cafe.

If you choose not to ponder about the repercussions of the video they made for advertising this event, I warmly suggest you to go there.

Otherwise, other places will be open just the same.

AlterEgo for instance if that rocks your boat. 

No Photos, Please!!! Szkafander 10th June

It was an out of the ordinary midsummer´s night. Almost.

After all the razzle dazzles, it is prime time to report about how it actually went.

I am rather undecided about the fact that I did not take any photos. Firstly, the abundance of incriminating material that the participants of last night´s Szkafander party provided could have made me a notorious person. What power, I grudge to myself infested with ill-spirited revery. If only I had made some pictures....On the other hand, I might not like the feeling of being ostracised by my own kind. Whatever that meant.

Anyway...

Thank Unicorns for couch-surfers, random tourists and heteroflexible straigters!!!

Otherwise I would have known almost everyone at that party and that would make me a very dull and unhappy little girl, grabbing onto her favourite and rather over-washed, by now almost falling apart teddy bear.

As I have suspected, the ´mixed´ party was indeed mixed, but the gay vs. gayelles ratio was, again, in favour of the gays.
It is a new way to play peek-a-boo!

Here are some made up statistics:

Crowd: men to women ratio: app 75 to 25 per cent

Looks: quite a decent number of hot guys and a less decent number of hot girls, but that is only cause there were less girls to start with.

Scandal ratio: ammm..nothing juicy. The speakers went off for a couple of minutes, but that only added oil to the otherwise quite heated atmosphere.

Music: DJ Minek delivered indeed. Nice electro-pop and tasty Madonna and Kyle remixes.  Appropriate and highly enjoyable. My only complaint refers to the last hour of the set when he repeatedly played some mass of something that was supposed to warn the attendees that it is almost time to go home. That brings me to the problematic part:

It ended at 3 am!!!

What kind of a party ends at 3 am????
I was just getting started!

(the free entry one. Oh well, I knew there was a catch somewhere...)

Nevertheless, I still had loadsa fun and saw plenty of cutie-pies and I would warmly recommend this party to anyone who has not been yet.

Talk soon,

XOXO,

Vanity

TONIGHT!!!!it's razzle dazzle time!

This is just a reminder that Szkafander is happening tonight! Please scroll down to find the original post. If you are too lazy however, here you go (I am so spoiling you, but today I am generous:)):

WHAT: SZKAFANDER; straight friendly gay clubbing

WHERE: Pantlika Bisztro

WHEN: tonight, 10th June


I will be there, see if you can find me!:)

And here is the official video for the upcoming pride.
I am not particularly enraged.
See it for yourself.

Puzzled

This is a commercial video for the opening party for the upcoming pride. Look at it:





I am a little haunted by this. Where are the other people?
Why is it called Hungaricum? Someone forgot to mention that they meant it tongue in cheek. Oh wait, they didn´t.

And please, lay of the Gaga thing. She is so NOT hot right now.

Ranting

Now, maybe I am a little bit cranky today, but in all cases I need to complain a bit.

Firstly, let me stress it:  I am not an idiot.

Let us start with how I address my audience: LGBQT ...? Yes, I have done that. Sometimes I mess up the order, and often I miss categories out. It may be insulting. I am aware of that. I am not telling you to get used to it. I am telling you to complain! Please do!

Let us move on quickly before I say I am sorry. There would be really little point to that before anyone has even addressed a complaint yet.

Second issue is the amount of events for ladies. Take one look at this blog and see that most of these events are planned for gay male population. All the clubs that I have mentioned so far are planned for gay male audience. There is not one single gayelle club in this town. Not one. Off course, many of the gay clubs let women in, but how does that look like in reality? Approximately there is one woman for nine men - you know what I mean. That is just unacceptable. One of the reasons why most lady parties allow women only is precisely because women are so underrepresented in the Budapest party life. It is obvious that there is a need for a secluded scene, because otherwise all we have is a scattered bunch of nothing. But is that the final goal, is that completely satisfying? How do we want our entertainment?

ENTERTAINMENT ______________________


(it echoes and bounces off the walls for a couple of moments while I pause to think - entertainment....is....a free sample of liberty....is it now?  I know I need it. I know everyone needs it...Still, it bounces a little more of the hollow surface within my head.....)Anyway....

I will not rank the clubs, there is no point to it. Coxx, Action Bar, AlterEgo, lalala, are clubs by men and for men.  If you see women there they are most probably fag hags. Not exclusively.  Is this too sour? Maybe I am overacting, but that there is a under-representation of gayelles is something everyone is aware of. Budapest needs to grow. It needs more lesbian visibility, and more lesbian spaces. That is a fact.

Let's rank Budapest LQGBTIA events (hoppa, does it work this time, no complaints?):

First a list of events that happen more or less ordinarily - I will not count club nights:


Brutko Diszko
Chicken Exit
Confetti
Szkafander
Bad Taste
Papa Don't Vogue
Ossztrosokk
Prestige
Candy Party


Ammm, is this all????

Seriously, all?

PLEASE; pretty please with cherry on top correct me if I am wrong, but I think that is about it!!!!



And then it goes like this:

Men only: -

Women only: Ossztrosokk.

Now there are several ways to refer to this category, noone is really sure how to, but everyone tries their best:

Mixed, queer, straight friendly, and so on: Brutko Diszko, Bad Taste, Papa Don't Vogue, Szkafander, COnfetti, Chicken Exit, Candy Party.



Hm. Interesting.

I do not think I am getting anywhere like this. According to this there should be almost a balance of attendees with the exclusion of Ossztrosokk, but I know that there is not!
Of all the mixed events the only event close to really being mixed, to put it that way if I have to, is Brutko Diszko. I will have to make an interview with the organizers to ask how they are doing it.

I did not get anywhere, but that is how it is with ranting.

I will still report as soon as I find something!!!!

RAZZLE DAZZLE PRIDE MELTDOWN!!!!

Heya my dear LGQBTs,

I have been a little, ammmm, busy sorting out some very important personal issues and that is why I did not post anything for last Saturday. But as avid readers I imagine you to be, you could have checked that I have already done my homework prior to Saturday, so I did not really  leave you informationless like fish on the dry land. 

Also, avid readers may notice that what I am about to write down has already been mentioned earlier in this blog. Still, I suspect that information needs to be updated more frequently to be more valid, therefore I repeat it just in case it does not get heard, thus highlighting my goal, which is: to inform. 

Even the little birds sing that we have a major LGGQBT happening coming up this month. Budapest Pride takes place from 11th June until 19th June. 

What follows is a detailed plan of events happening under the organisation of Budapest Pride. Find your pick and reach for the gold!!!
