Help Me Out, You Lovely Opinionated People You
Help Me Out, You Lovely Opinionated People You
So we’ve narrowed down vacation ideas to two:
Do we go to Las Vegas on the weekend of Mar. 28-30 and see Margaret Cho with Ian Harvie at the Pearl at The Palms?
OR
Do we go to Dallas on the weekend of Mar. 14-16, stay at the Belmont Hotel and see The English Beat at the Granada Theater?
One’s more expensive than the other, but possibly more fun. The latter, however, involves the possibility that I might be able to talk a certain pair of ska-loving Texans to come visit DFW for a weekend (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE).

Won’t they revoke your membership if you don’t choose Cho in Vegas?

I’m pretty sure that my gay privileges have long since been suspended. I’m the worst gay ever. It’s a good thing I’ve never voted Republican, or I very well might be shot.

Go see English Beat. Maybe they’ll play “Mirror in the Bathroom” and you can smash things. Also, though I know I will be skewered for saying this, Vegas is the world’s least interesting place. It’s gaudy, tawdry, and cheap. Dallas, well, you know how I feel about Dallas, especially when compared against Austin, but the Beat will be there, and they’re amazing.

Wow, you guys are all awesome. I won’t tell you which way I’m leaning, except to say that Jonathan, if you & Tish want to come up and smash things as well, I’ll totally buy your tickets.
However, I do love Vegas. It is gaudy, tawdry, and cheap, and that’s the fun. However, we’re tentatively planning on going there for B’s birthday this year, so.

I just found out that Lisa Lampanelli is playing the Majestic Theater in Dallas around the 14th of April. If you (or anyone else here) is interested, I can send you the link.
