Melbourne, AZ: The Beards & Gay Paris

(Via www.au.timeout.com)

These two bands go together like a pot and a parma, but more importantly you’re unlikely to spot finer chin topiary anywhere in this city Head down to Northcote Social Club on Friday, to catch Adelaide’s The Beards pulling tunes from their third fuzz-promoting album – which spawned the smash hit ‘You Should Consider Having Sex With a Bearded Man’.

Sydney’s shadowy Gay Paris, meanwhile, sport the sort of beards that should be twirled thoughtfully while contemplating a broken string – and make sartorial elegance seem like something you should put in your pipe and smoke.

Time Out cornered both bands for their favourite gentlemanly haunts in Melbourne. MORE

Binational couple: We want equal treatment (CNN Video Interview)

 

ThinkProgress.org reports “This afternoon, CNN hosted Bradford Wells and Anthony John Makk, a binational couple married in Massachusetts in 2004. Makk — who is an Australian — applied for permanent residency, but his application has been denied since the Defense of Marriage Act prohibits the federal government from recognizing same-sex relationships. Wells had this message for those who support the discriminatory law: “I would like someone to try to uphold the Constitution of the United States. I would like equal treatment. I want my marriage to be recognized just like every other marriage in this country is recognized.” Watch it:

Friday Night Furlosophy; 2 Bears, 2 Beers Discuss Current Affairs from Down Under

I have just the thing to get you all past hump-day. Have you ever sat around with a good buddy, shooting the shit, gossiping about men, gym locker room, politics, pop culture, solving world peace and figuring out the smell of your farts and what you ate for lunch, and thought to yourself, “We should record ourselves because we are funny as all hell!” Most likely you smoked to much weed and you fall way short of being entertaining outside of the fart joke. It has recently been brought to my attention that these two beefy men from down under have done just that and quite successfully at that.

They cruise through current affairs with a humorous flare and constant ad-lib slap stick humor. In their most current vod-cast they amuse us with a bumper episode, the guys discuss the recent Equal Love rally in Brisbane, Singing Kylie to the Christians and the stupid new internet meme, Planking. After watching several of their videos via YOUTUBE you will feel like you can call these two your pals, buds or good friends.

Sruli Recht – Reykjavik Fashion Festival

Recht studied Fashion Design at RMIT University in Melbourne Australia, the city where he spent the majority of his life.

Allegedly Straight men kiss responding to Sydney Christian Democrat candidate Peter Madden

One they were probably drunk, two straight guys are just horny ( as well as queers). We all have wet dreams of making out with the football team ( the whole team, go big or go home), firemen and most all straight guys. But in “real life” there are intentions behind straight men locking lips.

Why Were All These Straight Dudes Making Out At Sydney Mardis Gras?

http://www.queerty.com/wp/wp-content/plugins/flv-embed/flvplayer.swf

These straight boys (and straight girls) were locking lips — “pashing,” as Aussies call it — over the weekend at Sydney’s Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras weren’t just experimenting with their sexuality. They were responding to Sydney Christian Democrats candidate Peter Madden, who released the YouTube videos below where he railed against the disgusting sex-obsessed, drug-fueled behavior he claims to have personally witnessed at Mardi Gras, where the “immoral” gays are recruiting kids. Were it not for Madden, says the Pash Protest organizer (and TV presenter by trade) Danny Clayton, he never would’ve had the chance to show off heteros popping their same-sex kiss cherry. via Queerty

BRUCE LABRUCE AND ITEM IDEM AT THE OPERA

Interview by Michael Ladner
Photography by Bella Lieberberg

Last Sunday at around 7:30 p.m. CET at the Hebbel am Ufer theatre in Berlin-Kreuzberg, a massive iron curtain thundered upwards, marking the premiere ofBruce LaBruce’s first-ever staging of Arnold Schönberg’s melodrama Pierrot Lunaire. Leave it to Bruce LaBruce to transform Schönberg’s opera of sorts into a one-hour-long gender-bending tale of impossible love, guilt, and confusion — complete with a neo-expressionist stage design including a dick-guillotine and dildos aplenty. A day before the premiere Bruce and his art director Cyril Duval aka item idem took time out from tending to the production’s final kinks to answer some of BUTT’s pondering questions.

AussieBum-Bum Benefits Bears’ Charity; Muffin Tops Welcome

To answer the age old question BOXERS or BRIEFS. I have been accused of wearing what is called old man undies. Let me explain. I am thrifty by nature and turned off by expensive underwear ( Ohhh I think that could be a new Bravo Show). I am a fan of a 5-pack of Fruit of the Loom or Hanes ( How do you keep your hands off me, beats me!) assorted plaid boxers, in big boy sizes. On a side note I’m all about a good cause or what I like to call “D0-Gooders”. So, thank you AussieBum for representing” the Bear” and non-Bear big boys.

Sydney, Australia

Australia’s largest bear club, Sydney’s Harbour City Bears (HCB) have teamed up with the iconic Australian underwear brand aussieBum to raise money for charity.

AussieBum has manufactured a limited edition pair of Bear Essentials underwear which will be sold by HCB to benefit their charity Inspire, during their upcoming Bear Essentials festival – a part of the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.

Only 250 pairs of the underwear, which feature the Bear Essentials 2011 branding designed by Melbourne artist Grant Cook, have been produced. They will sell for $39.95 AUD in sizes ranging from small to extra-large, with all profits going to youth mental health charity Inspire.

HCB Vice President, Richard Moore, says: “We’re excited to working with aussieBum to benefit such a great charity as Inspire, who do fantastic work with young people.”

“We encourage the guys in Sydney for Bear Essentials to support the cause and purchase the underwear from our stall at Mardi Gras Fair day during the Bear Essentials Festival launch.”

“Plus they make a great memento of Bear Essentials and great gifts for people back home.”
