Local artist Lev Yilmaz has perfected the craft of gloom in his comics and videos; he has a new book out, and he's presenting a dramatic reading tonight and tomorrow.

· Writing » Topic » miscView article as originally published If you do not fall completely under the spell of Jeffery and Cole Casserole upon your very first viewing, then we have nothing to discuss. The show stars 2 giddy young lads in a NYC apartment, furiously bombarding a webcam with comedy and, well, that's it. And we love it. "It's recession TV," Jeffery Self, one of the show's stars, told us when we reached him by phone. That's... [Read more...]

It's been a dark, dry time. But now the bartendress-shaped void in our life has been filled by cocktailsonthefly.tv, Alberta's new webby home! The most important booze-slinger in town is now starring in professionally-shot drink-making tutorials, highlighting her talent for combining fresh fruit and top-notch booze. We're talking about...

· Writing » Topic » miscView article as originally published When the Party-Party folks started agitating to Dump Dufty, we couldn't wait to see who'd step up to the plate. Who would dare run against a celebrated gay man in the gayest gay district of a city populated entirely by gay homosexual gays? Alix Rosenthal (pictured at right, hovering majestically above the treetops), that's who. Bevan, can you hover majestically? We didn't think so. Alix is an attorney and civil... [Read more...]

Wait, have you been wearing those since Folsom? Eww. Aaaaaaaaanyway, this Saturday, at 8pm on the Van Ness side of City Hall, a gaggle of frolickers plan to converge and dance. (Backup location: Patricia's/Hayes Green.)It's Flashdance Four, a temporary party hosted by local flashmobby gadfly Amandeep Jawa. He brings speakers and... [Read more...]

For those philistines, here's a quick recap: Charo is a Spanish superstar of song, dance, and guitar, known for her eccentric catchphrase ("coochi coochi"), wild ensembles, a record-setting number of Loveboat guest appearances, and a speech pattern that is unpredictable, frantic, and...

· Writing » Topic » lgbtView article as originally published Maybe, like us, you weren't lucky enough to catch the Frameline screening of Joy of Life last month. But fear not: this Monday (the eleventh), Jenni Olson's narrative-documentary-ish film premiers at the Castro, and plays until the fourteenth. It's hard to pin The Joy of Life down to any one genre of film; it consists of contemplative footage of San Francisco, accompanied by a calm voiceover, reading what sound like... [Read more...]
