Hot Dates - 6th June 2009


Hey Folks,

Well, with much activity looming in the coming weeks, including Pride Events across the U.K. consuming weekends & a myriad of launch parties on that island called Ibiza, we could be mistaken for overlooking what is happening in gAylist/land London, but fear not as there are some heavyweights on their way for the first weekend of July. However, barely into June, we still look forward to a couple of events this month which cannot be missed.

First hot date is the return of Hook’d which assumes a new timing slot of 10 p.m. on Saturday 20th June running through till 6 a.m. at Hidden in Vauxhall. So not only is the next outing (indeed subsequent ones) in a prime time slot, but June’s party is also a celebration of organiser Paul Beauchamp’s birthday, so what better two reasons could you have to succumb to the hard house edged techno twisted Hook’d hedonism. And with a star studded line up (well for you Techno enthusiasts) including Andy Farley, Little Miss Natalie & non other than Ian M, its going to be one huge shindig. Advance £8 (bargain!) tickets are on sale at http://moreonthedoor.com/ and more details can be found at http://hookd-london.com/

Next is a daytime outing and one definitely not to be missed, yes it’s the return of The Clapham Street party, hosted by Kazbar and with the backing of fellow local gay venue The Two Brewers, with Cabaret being the name of the game, in amongst alfresco audacities outdoors, but with dancing & drinking the core fun inside Kazbar. For the showtime girl in you, a massive line up of scene acts include Dave Lynn, Lola Lasagne, Topping & Butch, Maisie Trollette, Titti La Camp & Rose Garden, the stage hosted by non other than Sandra (the queen of Swiss Cottaaage!). Inside the action is kept in tune by a list of D.J’s headlined by Kazbar resident Saint David. With no entry fee but with an expected minimum donation of £1 to the nominated charities, GMFA & Albert Kennedy Trust, this looks like being the next best gay capital to London Pride, with no Soho event this year. Watch this space for further details including coverage of the after-party.

So, there are two forthcoming dates to note down for sure, with much more to come over the London Pride weekend in our next post (big news on Matinee London due!!).

Just a quick mention goes to Hoof which is back on 13th June, celebrating Guy Williams birthday, more details in our weekend recommendations post later this week.

And don’t forget what we say?......Go There! Be There!
