WELCOME, QUEERS! Welcome to
South by Southwest! Welcome to Austin! Squinting from the glare? Lost in the gloss? Awash in bright lights, big city, you great big beautiful queer? Let your new best friends here at
Gay Place hold your hand and be your respite in the storm. We will be fingering the rainbow/unicorn pulse throughout SXSW and reporting our findings back to you. Be sure to keep up with our latest, as we will be blogging crazy-like, with pics and vlogs featuring the likes of hottie-bo-hottentots
Margaret Cho,
Girl in a Coma, the
Dicks,
Shunda K, the
Moaners,
Hesta Prynn,
Amanda Palmer, and so many more. If you are badge-clad, be sure to check out this week's films
Sissyboy and
Lesbian Vampire Killers. If you ain't got no steenkeen badge, check our blog and our column in the
SXSW daily issues (starting next week) for hints on where our people at.
