In honor of Holy Week I posted about Army Of Lovers on another blog I write for but, you know, you can never have too much of this:

That’s Crucified, from their amazing (in small doses) album Massive Luxury Overdose.  Over the weekend I’ll be posting other festive holiday videos, so stay tuned.

The Beau Breedlove issue of Unzipped is out and, um, he’s not actually naked in it beyond the almost-but-not-quite-side-ass-view on the cover.  Sucks to be you, foolish reader of shrinkwripped magazines!  I have to admit that Breedlove actually looks pretty good in the spread, having gotten a little less twinky over time, though I think his head can only be photographed from certain angles to avoid his looking prissy.  Probably eyebrow tweezing is also part of the problem.

Of course, Unzipped was the one that “exclusively” got shirtless pictures of him back in January, after Breedlove had posted them on this little-known private forum called Myspace.  Then they made fun of Sam Adams for being old, convinced Breedlove to take his clothes off and then, um, now won’t show anything x-rated  to however many people planned to actually leave their houses to buy a printed copy of a gay dirty magazine in 2009.  One that claimed to show Breedlove, fresh from his affair, revealing all.  (Fresh from the affair that happened in 2005, mind you.)  You know what else happened in 2005?  This.  Yeah, way to be fresh, Unzipped.  No wonder people don’t care about printed media anymore.  Jesus.

It’s possible that Katy Perry is one of those people–like Brian Wilson–who completely annoy me but whose songs are actually not that terrible to my ears when other people sing them.  I mentioned Cobra Starship’s I Kissed A Girl the other day and now here’s Ukrainian outfit Los Colorados covering Hot N Cold:

They’re not my favorite folky Ukrainian cover band–that would still be The Ukrainians, the David Gedge-endorsed nineties group that laid their hands on Meat Is Murder and Venus In Furs–but this is another step towards me inevitably not hating one of the singles on Katy Perry’s next album.

Electric Youth

In about two weeks I have to DJ a dance for queer teens.  The e-mail I got from the organizers said not to play anything too explicit, and that the kids really like line dances (especially the Cha Cha Slide, which is a song I had never even heard of until it was played at the Rock And Bowl on Valentine’s Day.)

I am completely at a loss for what to bring.  I’m sure that the queer youth of today would be totally bored if I put on the songs I liked from yesteryear, but I also don’t want to play cheesy line dances all night.  Any commenters maybe have any experience in this department?
