Friday
Fuck Shit Let’s Dance (FSLD) @ Deco Lounge
510 Larkin Street
9PM to 3AM, $5
DJ Donimo of Lucky Pierre fame will be spinning at this inclusive, no holds barred, faggot techno dancefest. It’s in the middle of the Tender-Polk and the crowd’s more punky and bear-y than, say, your average Friday at Boy Bar. …more

Charlie Horse @ The Cinch
1723 Polk Street (bet. Clay & Washington)
10 PM, show at midnight
A little further up the street you can crawl to this hot mess. It beat out Trannyshack last year for best drag show, and it’s at a
bar that is sort of country-western themed but also has a ceiling
covered in colored in those multicolored Mexican paper flags. The drag performances tend toward the rock end of the spectrum and can be pretty hit or miss, but aren’t they all?
Saturday
Social Club @ The Lookout
16th & Noe (at Market)
9PM, $3
Let’s
just say that there are a lot of polo shirts and
while we’re totally cool with that and lots of pretty boys will be wearing
them, it can be a little unnerving. The tagline for this event, oddly, is “Upscale,
Downlow,” even though there’s nothing really down-low about it. This week is a CD release party for George Michael’s new album, Twentyfive.

9PM – 2AM
eclectic-electro-punk-dancey best at this weekly hipster haven where
you’re just as likely to make out with a gay boy wearing a kaffiyeh as
you are to get elbowed by a baby-dyke with lipstick smeared all over
her face. …read more

Come on down for this wound up weekend-wind-down event and toss back a few two-for-one

J. and Rayza Burn …read more

Friday
Bloc Party @ Easternbloc
505 East 6th Street
This
is one of our favorite gay bars in New York: the music’s good, the boys
are hip, the bartenders are cute and it’s the kind of come-as-you-are,
non-BnT booze fest Manhattan needs more of. …read more

Hot Mess @ Porky’s
55 W 21st Street
11 PM
A lot of hardcore party boys storm Porky’s on Sundays for this tribute
to low class whorishness. Shoutouts to the fishbowl cocktails (um, do
you really need that second one for fuck’s sake? It’s Sunday) and the
sloppy teenagers (we use that term loosely) in their underwear playing
Twister. Good luck getting home without herpes!
