Bemoaning the loss of the very last ( full-on ) lesbian bar in Chicagoland? Well, one has come back from the straight/dead. Remember Temptations in Franklin Park? Well, tempt your dyke ass out there, because it's gone all lesbiany again. Enjoy the lady-ness of it all.
Never have I been so utterly bewitched by a boy in a Spiderman onesie. This sexy dancer at Berlin's new Friday night Nightcaps ( to whom I drunkenly told that he looks like Rivers Cuomo after a ride in the dryer ) had me wishing he'd shoot his web all over me. My Spidey Sense was tingling. My Spidey Sense is my dick.
Hearty and heartfelt congratulations to Chester Munro on taking the title of Mr. Chicago Leather 2010 at Touché this past Saturday. Chester has been our resident IML cover photographer for a few years. Perhaps this year he'll do a self-portrait? Good luck, honey. Nightspots will cheer for you with both fists in the air. Insert low-taste fisting joke here. And here, as well.
So, what are you thinking about the newness of ol' Nightspots? I seem to be getting a positive response. Who needs color when you have the wit and wisdom of Professor Know-It-All. Make sure to pick up each issue of Nightspots for tasty knowledge morsels from Professor Know-It-All's brain buffet. You may be shocked at how much you'll learn!
Happy Valentine's Day, Mardi Gras, Super Bowl, Chinese New Year and President's Day. Our calendar on page 26 has events for all of 'em.
