I had a chance to have a quick chat with this fiercely fabulous purveyor of hot electronic beats and even hotter looks and here's what he had to say about returning to Denver for Climax.

Drew: Hey, DJ Xtasys, are you excited to be coming back to Denver?

DJ Xtasys: Yes, I’m very excited! This will be my second year DJing this event.

Any new music or surprises for the people?

Yeah, I have so many surprises and new releases mixed by me. It’s very important to me to bring the best show I can for the people of Denver.

I hear you're working on an album.
Yes, I’m working on new music. My first album will be released in December but I’ll be spinning a few of the new tracks from the album this weekend. And of course I have free CDs to give away to the people!

Stand Up Proud: A conversation with openly gay comedian Thai Rivera (Part 2 of 2)

By Drew Wilson

Openly gay comedian Thai Rivera brings the Stand Up Proud comedy tour to Denver's Comedy Works this Sunday, April 29 at 7pm for one show, one night only of comedy by, for and about the GLBT community. 

 

After the show, the gay old time continues with the Official After-Party/Meet N Greet at The Corner Office in LoDo.

I caught up with Thai on the road recently and we had a chance to talk about the tour, GRINDR and why the gay community needs to support gay shows and events. 

You can read part one of the interview by clicking here. And now, here's part two!

 

Drew: You've said that the gay community sometimes doesn't go to comedy shows because of the fear of homophobia from the comedians. When have you experienced homophobia?

Thai? What I call The New Homophobia is more of what I experience than the old school homophobia. It’s more like people ripping my straight friends for hanging out with me and implying that they must be gay is usually what I encounter. On the road, for the most part, my personal fan base is a lot of straight people – soccer moms and stuff like that. I think a lot of times in the media it's made to seem like things are homophobic and red states and blue states and, I mean, I’ve traveled everywhere. I do a joke in my set where I talk about performing in really white, rednecky rooms and sometimes my act doesn’t feel like an act, it feels like a really long suicide note. But really, that's just a joke because I used to feel like they were going to kill me sometimes but it turned out to be great. I don’t think people are nearly as homophobic as the media makes it seem.

Do you think gay audiences find different things funny versus straight audiences?
I don’t really notice a lot of differences sometimes. Gay people in certain areas used to get uncomfortable with some of what I did because I think they took it as me airing our dirty laundry in public.

Sometimes I say things that they think are a little too much, letting straight people in a little more than I should. I don’t really have a filter or think about what I’m saying a lot of times, I just say it. If it’s funny, I’ll say it. But really it hasn’t been a problem for a long time. San Francisco used to be a hard place for me to perform because there you have a lot of overly militant, far-left types. They thought I was too much in some cases. Sometimes in an entire room, there would be like five people left when I was done.

That sounds rough.
Yeah, that definitely takes the wind out of your sails. It's like, really, you guys are that upset? But that’s what they want to do.

Being on tour so much, how do you spend your downtime?
I go to the gym. I buy shoes. I like buying vintage t-shirts. I go to the movies sometimes. Sometimes I go to clubs. But a lot of time when you’re performing the comedy clubs are not in the main part of the city and it can be too much effort to get to the gay clubs. Before, I used to be on Grindr and that kind of stuff but now I’m dating somebody so I’m pretty lame on the road.

So have you stopped going on Grindr or have you just stop telling the guy you're dating that you're going on Grindr?
Oh, no. I’m not allowed so I’m not on Grindr. We’ve been together like 8 or 9 months and it’s a little bit hard because he’s in Vegas and I’m in LA but I know what I'm not allowed to do. But it can be annoying when the person you want to spend time with is a four hour drive away.

Why should gay Denver come out to the Stand Up Proud show?
They should come out to the show because it’s gonna be fun and they can see Dina Martinez who I think is a real find. A lot of times the transgender community is kind of ignored and sometimes when I’ve seen transgendered comics they tend to have more of a Q&A type situation but Dina actually does stand up and she’s really funny. I want the community to know that not only is this going to be a great time but they should support it because people are always complaining about not seeing gay people in different things but then when gay people do do things, sometimes the community doesn't  come out and support it. And if gay events and things don’t make money – if gay people don’t show their support – then business owners assume the community isn’t interested and then they don’t book gay shows. It's lose/lose and people then try to blame it on homophobia but it’s not, it’s business.

PORNSTAR: A conversation with DJ Cody Domino

by Drew Wilson

He got his start DJing for drag shows in Milwaukee but now he's a nationally known superstar who recently made a stop in the Mile High City to serve as the latest sexy DJ to spin at DJ Tatiana's hugely popular PONRSTAR party.

Here's what DJ Cody Domino had to say about his love life, his music, and his own brief foray into porn.

Drew: You look like a baby. How old are you?
DJ Cody: I'm 29. don't tell anyone...

Do you have a boyfriend?
No, I am currently single. Lol.

What’s the best thing about being a DJ?The best thing about being a DJ to me is looking at the crowd and watching them dance. I feed off the crowd and when their energy is up, so is mine.

What’s the worst thing about being a DJ?
Haha! Um, requests. Enough said.

How would you describe your music and approach to DJing?
On paper it's circuit/pop/tribal anthems. I bring a lot of energy to the dance floor and if you appreciate real music with great vocals mixed with some dark tribal beats/circuit flavor then I would suggest coming out to see me.

What projects are you currently working on and how can we keep up with all the latest news?
I'm currently working on getting a monthly party (similar to PORNSTAR) in Chicago. Planning out the summer's DJ gigs. And I'm always producing new CDs/podcasts.You can download them at www.djcody02.podomatic.com or 'Like' me on Facebook at "DJ Cody Domino."

Speaking of PORNSTAR. Have you ever done porn?
Honestly, I did do a couple of scenes for a few companies but, as I was getting into it, my DJ career really started taking off so I decided to focus on that.

Anything else you want to say?
Thank you for taking time to get to know me and I'll see ya on the dancefloor!

The next PORNSTAR party will be APRIL 13th, 2012

MANHUNT & DjTatiana present the HOTTEST MONTHLY PARTY that Denver has ever seen. Beautiful gay men, sexy staff and the finest superstars of the adult film industry all under the same roof.

Are you ready for the rollicking return of Bearracuda?

Bearracuda returns to Denver next Friday, March 9. This time it'll be at Exdo and will feature the Denver debut of DJ Paul Goodyear. 

Originally from Sydney and currently based in San Francisco Goodyear has been headlining the world’s highest-profile clubs and parties for over 25 years. His style encapsulates an incredible range. During his sets he combines hypnotic tribal, progressive house, dynamic disco, and soulful house to create a signature style all his own. With many artists struggling to stay relevant as musical trends come and go and technology changes the playing field, Paul has shown a remarkable gift for not just staying abreast of these trends, but for contributing to them and shaping them himself.  

 The Bay Area Reporter called Paul Goodyear a “world-renowned mix master.” Dance Music Authority Magazine called him a “Disco dignitary” and Gay News Network labelled him a “DJ Sensation.” 

Paul has made regular appearances at Sydney’s annual Mardi Gras with audiences of up to 24,000 party goers; Euro-Pride in 2008; the NY Lord Mayor’s Party on the Sydney Opera House Forecourt 2005; the closing party of Nation04 Festival in Singapore; the coveted Fire Island Pines Party in 2002; Folsom Street’s Magnitude Party in 2007, 2008 and 2009 and at both the opening and closing ceremonies of the Gay Games held in Sydney in 2002.
