Are you going to Las Vegas any time soon? There’s a new gig in town, once a month – Down. Down had its grand celebration on March 25 at Ghostbar, located at the top of the Palms Casino and Hotel (AWESOME view of the Strip, especially three or four beers in). Vegas’ newest lesbian night was launched by DJ Lisa Pittman of CandyBar (the DJ there on Saturday nights).

I heard that the turnout was great, and the night was a success, so hoping this is one lesbian event that sticks around, hopefully until I head back to Vegas. But that won’t be for awhile…my liver has to recover, and bills have got to be paid, so it’s back to real life for me.

The next Down celebration is on April 29, kicking off Gay Pride and featuring live performances by God-des & She. More to come on Vegas Gay Pride in the coming week.

Hi all,

Just to let everyone know, in about two weeks I am off to Las Vegas – the lights, the slots, the margaritas. So, I am going armed with my camera and a plan to hit a lot of the LGBT hotspots while I’m there. Thanks for reading and look for pics and updates when I get back!

It feels like about five years since I blogged, but really it’s only been a few months. It was work, the holidays, and all those other excuses I guess.

I read an interesting article in the Ottawa Citizen the other day, about how Nepal has set up a travel agency for gay and lesbians. It’s called The Pink Mountain Agency, and one of its founders is the only openly gay member of parliament in the country. There will be adventure sports, safaris, treks on Everest (you can even get married up there if you want – if your partner doesn’t die on the way up).

Although Nepal is considered old-school when it comes to homosexuality, they have become a lot more gay-friendly in the past few years.

Read the Ottawa Citizen article.

I’m betting that most people haven’t had the restaurant experience that is drag dining. Lips Restaurant in Fort Lauderdale is a popular spot that features drag shows such as Dinner With the Divas, where you’ll nosh with Bette Midler, Madonna and many more celebrities. Tuesday is drag karaoke, while Retro Superstar Sundays are all about glamour. There’s something going on no matter which day you stop by, although I do think they are closed on Mondays for private parties.

The menu is quite large, with everything from Surf and Turf to lasagne to quesadillas. Try the frozen cosmos, which are often on sale for something like $3. You will pay a $5 or $7 cover fee for shows (except on Tuesday and Wednesday nights), which will be added to your bill.

Lips in Florida is located at 1421 East Oak Park Blvd. in Fort Lauderdale. For event info and menu, see their website.
