There’s something to be said about being naked. I remember a summer in college, skinny-dipping biweekly finally feeling free in my body.

Celebrate nakedness. And singing. And private parts.

You wanna see aGLIFF‘s screening of Naked Boys Singing (screening Tuesday, Dec. 4, 7pm, Alamo South)? We know you do.

Let your pals at the Gay Place indulge your in the buffed butt-naked altos and tenors (and b.asses) with hard bodies and perky personalities … er, packages … er, personalities to boot, singing and dancing, and celebrating the loss of inhibition. And the gain of … well, something else.

Come get these tickets. We know you want ’em. We have two for the taking. One winner wins the pair (take a date!). Or if you wanna fly solo (not like the audience won’t be ripe for the pickin’), let us know, and we’ll give away the other one, too.

Here’s how: Leave a comment here on this blog entry and then send an email to Gay Place (gayplace@austinchronicle.com) with your full name, a day and nighttime phone number, a valid email address, and the name you are using in your blog registration.

Essay Topic: Tell us about the first time you felt free in your naked body. Or: Tell us about the craziest thing you’ve ever done, naked. Or: Naked. Anything naked. 100-500 words. Go.
