Sunday In SF: Remember The Party

The folks at San Francisco's Remember The Party, which is an annual reunion of the patrons and staff of the legendary Trocadero Transfer, have put together the below promo clip for Sunday's event. (They even worked in some of my own footage from last year's party.) DJ Jerry Bonham is planning to lean heavily on the Donna Summer catalog and Ms. Summer has contributed some rare memorabilia which will be auctioned at the event, which benefits San Francisco's Under One Roof HIV/AIDS charity. Advance tickets only $20.

October 10th In San Francisco: Remember The Party With DJ Jerry Bonham

One of my favorite events of the year, Remember The Party, returns to San Francisco's legendary Trocadero Transfer (now the Glas Kat) on October 10th.

The 1980 White Party at the Trocadero Transfer had a '30s Art Deco theme that got everyone's happy feet tap-tap-tapping. Looking at the pictures from it inspired our Remember The White Party poster with its Deco look and a touch of the Classics. Jerry will also be tipping his top hat to that decadent decade and stepping out my dear to breathe an atmosphere that simply reeks with class. And we trust that you'll excuse his dust when he steps on the gas! The lighting crew will have their controls set to sparkle with shimmering exuberant beams that will dazzle and delight, it'll be delightful and delicious and delectable and delirious and deluxe and de-limit and de-lovely! So do come along for a night of White Party pleasure and passion. White clothes add to the festivities but feel free to wear anything you like. All that matters is that you come join us for a one time only chance to experience an authentic piece of our gay musical heritage, a salute to the famous Trocadero Transfer White Parties from the '70s and '80s disco era.

Get tickets here. Facebook event page here. Once again I'll be celebrating my birthday at Remember The Party. Can't freekin' wait. Also: I'm open to suggestions for a JMG meet-up in SF that weekend!

Flashdance San Francisco: May 2nd

From the producers of Remember The Party comes Flashdance SF, a retro 80's dance party at the Glas Kat, original site of the legendary Trocadero Transfer. I won't be making this one, dammit, but these guys throw an amazing event - get there if you can. Advance tickets come with an 8-hour free download of last year's party. Love the Frankie-inspired artwork.
