This weekend, it’s finally here: HOMO A GO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Really, this is going to be the best thing to happen to SF in a long, long time.  If you’re not there, you’re not having fun.  And I really don’t want to have to tell you I told you so.  Seriously.

Today is your LAST DAY for ADVANCE TICKETS, so save some $ and buy them NOW!  I recommend the weekend pass, but if you’re stingy, at least come to Saturday night, where I’ll be emceeing and performing. (And, I’m super excited to be busting out one of the Gossip’s new songs.  Get ready.)

A reminder: Homo A Go Go is a four day festival of queer music, film, art, performance and activism.  It only happens once every two years or so (three since the last one).  It used to be in Olympia, but everyone moved away, so now it’s in San Francisco.  We are blessed.  It’s DIY, which means Do-It-Yourself, which means not a lot of outside funding or support, which means don’t be a cheapskate and buy a fucking ticket.  Please.  It’s also punk and dirty and high-energy and fun for all.  Headliners include:

Glass Candy
Erase Errata
Mirah
Girl in a Coma

Local favorites who are performing include Hunx and his Punx, Jenna Riot, the Younger Lovers, Katastrophe, and the Casual Lust along with DJ sets by Honey Sound System, emcee’s Peaches Christ and Lil Miss Hot Mess and a fashion show curated by Chelsea Starr.

Here are some more folks I’m excited about: Carole & Mitzi (Beth Lisick and Tara Jepsen), Vicki Marlane, Suppositori Spelling, Kirk Read, Michelle Tea, Jupiter, Tender Forever (!), Tim’m West, Athens Boys Choir, Krylon Superstar, and Nomi Lamm.  And probably more who I can’t remember, but that’s a lot to remember, ok?

While music is the focal point of the festival, (with 42 musical acts) the schedule also includes film screenings of over 60 films (including the amazing Forever’s Gonna Start Tonight, about legendary Vicki Marlane), a fashion show featuring the work of 12 independent designers, a 3-day craft fair featuring up to 90 DIY/independent businesses and community organizations, 15 multi-media/theatrical/spoken word performers, 27 visual artists and 10 workshops focusing on education and activism.

I mean it, I really really don’t want to have to tell you what you missed.
