Godspell as performed by NSYNC on Christ Crack!

Prepare Ye for a theatrical event!  ALTAR BOYZ is a show that will "shep naches" (to translate for you goys "to bring pleasure or joy")!  It's staged as the final performance of the christian boy band Altar Boyz "Raise the Praise" tour but don't fret as you can still catch the Boyz at the Pantages theatre through December 31!

Just who are the Altar Boyz?  You've got Mathew, the leader of the boy band with beautiful arms.  Mark, the token meshuggina faygala (again translation:  crazy homosexual) choreographer of the group.  Luke, I guess he drives the bus.  Juan, the "Rico Suave" Papi hearthrob.  And Finally Abraham, the Jewish one (picture Beastie Boy with a fantastic voice & body)! 

So...  that's who they are, now here are some tips to help you "Learn Your Lesson Well!"  1.  Don't Be Cheap!  Buy the best available tickets because you'll miss some of kitsch in the lyrics if you do.  2.  Again, DON'T BE CHEAP!  Go 2 or 3 times because like I said...  you'll miss alot the first 1 or 2 times!  3.  Come ready to "Get Jiggy Wit" the Boyz!  This isn't a performance of Jesus Christ Superstar...  it's the "Raise the Praise" tour.  Can I get an Amen!

And now it's time for My Favorites... 

Song:  Church Rulez!  If you've ever had the pleasure of attending Catholic Mass it'll make you giggle like a Catholic schoolgirl!

Confession:  Well... these are secret between the Altar Boyz, you and the Lord but of course it'll have something to do with Impure Thoughts!

Boychick:  Sorry Mark...  but my favorite from the band of boychicks is Abraham!  His singing and dancing makes me verklempt!  Plus...  there's just something about a boy in a yamika!

So, during this holiday season make one of your holiday wishes an evening with the Boyz!  You may just become an Atlarholic!  Maybe not, but at the very least you'll leaving proclaiming "I'm A...  Cath'lic!"

So as this former altar boy proclaims as I ride out of sight  "Merry Briss-Mass To ALL!"  ~love the Meshuggina Faygala Tim

Steam Heat!

This past weekend Tim and I where in Chicago.  We stayed at the lovely Hyatt right along the Chicago river.  Huge hotel...two towers...2500 rooms....Big Bar... Hard Drive...What can I say, a gay boys paradise!  Anyways, while I was in the shower and Tim was sleaping off his hangover from the night before, I remembered another time that we stayed at a Park Hyatt in Seattle.  The greatest thing about the Park Hyatt was the STEAM baths right in the hotel.  No, you didn't have to leave the hotel to find these baths, instead they where right in your bathroom! While I was standing in the shower in Chicago, I was also reminded of a few events going on this weekend.  Take a look below:

First, we have STEAM on Friday night at the Bolt Underground.  I have to admit, Tim and I have not checked this event out yet.  But, if it is anything like the Foam Party or the Lights-Out Underwear Party, I'm sure this will be a pretty good time.  Don't worry about having to bring your own towel, as they provide them for you!  In addition to the towel they also have a free clothes check! 

Do you see what I see?  A drag queen, a drag queen with really hot elves ...elves as big as the sky!  Minnesota's own Queen of Porn is back for her annual DJ stint at the Bolt Underground.  Mrs. or Ms. or Miss. LaRue as I'm sure all of you know is originally from the Iron Range of Minnesota.  Matter of fact, she even went to school with  Kevin Mchale, of the Minnesota Timberwolves!  Not only does LaRue bring cute elf helpers, but she also dispenses via airborne DVD's, a fair amount of entertainment for your viewing pleasure at a later date.  Yes, the rumors are true that Tim was hit in the head by a flying LaRue DVD a number of years ago!  LaRue spins Saturday the 16th at the Bolt Underground.

Your hot and steamy boy for Chi Chi...Jayson!
