In The Loop: 2/13/10. Flipping Off The PDA Pirates
Posted By Gavin Sheehan on February 13, 2010, 7:50 AM
Catching
up on things today, there's a made up holiday around the corner that
no one gets paid double for working on. While I don't care too much
about it, the artwork around the city is nice. 
--- Speaking of
stuff revolving around the lovey dovey, while this Friday mainly
plays host to Gallery Stroll, another event will be taking place
across the city. The PDA Show! Ken Sanders, NoBrow, Kayo Gallery,
Alchemy and The Utah Pride Center will all play host to the event,
which is an artistic response to the gay couple detained on LDS
property last year. Several works will be on display, and kissing
booths will be held at every location which will include derby girls
and even Sister Dottie S. Dixon! The event will go for four weeks,
but the first knight kicks off on Friday.
Turning briefly to
music, the CWMA's continued last night up and down State Street. I
myself was at the Circle Lounge watching the skills of Linus Stubbs,
MindState and Nolens Volens. The first time we've held an event like
this at Circle, the crowd was more than welcoming, joining in and
celebrating the mix of the in-house DJ along with all three acts.
...Well, until the end, when Nolens flipped off the crowd. But we'll
discuss that more in-depth on Monday. For now, blurry crowd picture! And
don't forget to head out tonight to catch the last of the showcases
that you can vote on at Burt's Tiki Lounge and Bar Deluxe.

Briefly
looking at local comics, check it out, Pirate Club is back. With
baseball bats! Derek Hunter just put out the latest edition to the
series this week as the kids wreak havoc on a number of clubs, and
even come across another pirate club. I'm not doing spoilers, so head
over and check out the latest issue.
As for the blog, coming
up the next few weeks we'll chat up another anniversary, have a CWMA
show with interviews, hit up Gallery Stroll, talk podcasting, check
out local boarding and a print artist. And enjoy the gift giving
tomorrow men, I'm sure it'll all come back around on March 14th,
but we'll discuss that another time. ...Or maybe not, we'll see what
happens.
