Following four sold out seasons in Sydney, Tommy Murphy’s award winning adaptation of Tim Conigrave’s iconic memoir, Holding the Man comes to Brisbane. Breathtakingly honest and achingly funny, Holding the Man is a heart-wrenching account of a fifteen-year relationship that weathered disapproval, separation, temptation and ultimately, death. It's a story and a celebration that speaks across generations, sexual preferences and cultures. Tim and John met in high school in the mid-1970's. Tim was in the school production of Romeo & Juliet and had a crush on John. John was the captain of the football team and wanted to play for Essendon. By the end of high school even their school yearbook acknowledged them as the year's cutest couple. Griffin Theatre Company's 2006 and 2007 sell-out seasons of Tommy Murphy’s adaptation of Holding The Man set all-time box office records for the company. After two more sell out seasons at the Sydney Opera House and Belvoir St Theatre, Holding The Man is already one of the theatre hits of the decade, returning in 2008 to the Melbourne Theatre Company and Brisbane Powerhouse.

Gay Gossip - not that I am one to gossip.....however........

And so is Jake Gyllenhaal, according to persistent reports in multiple gossip magazines and websites over the past two weeks. Plenty of pictures of the guys in what looks like intimate company seem to confirm what had been long-simmering rumours, and an alleged incident where Jake and his boyfriend were taken in by the cops for screwing in an SUV out the back of an LA restaurant is now also doing the rounds. Australian entertainment magazine NW printed a two-page scoop on the double-outing in its issue that hit stands this week and as if that wasn't enough, this week we heard that the father of Anna Nicole Smith's baby, Larry Birkhead, is said to have been secret lovers with her lawyer, one of the men Birkhead fought for custody of little Daniellynn, Howard K. Stern! When we crowned Wentworth Miller one of the Sexiest Man Alive last week, we wondered if all the gay speculation may have been true. Perez Hilton had reported that Wentworth was dating Brothers And Sisters actor Luke MacFarlane - ex-boyfriend of openly gay Grey's Anatomy star T.R. Knight - months ago, but in an interview with DNA, Wenty had categorically denied he was into guys. "This is about fantasy," he explained. "Certain people are going to have certain fantasies." Fantasy seems to have become reality, though, and since Luke MacFarlane is gorgeous the thought of this pair getting naked and all Prison Break with each other in the sack after a day strolling around WeHo in their cargo pants gives us a whole new rack of certain fantasies to stick in the spank bank. Meanwhile, not only is Jake Gyllenhaal has been linked with two different guys and is apparently about to have a baby with a surrogate mother. The alleged baby is due in September, and Jake clearly has a thing for easy-going brunettes. New York chef Chris Fischer is said to be Jake's main squeeze, but Jake was famously snapped with actor Austin Nichols at a basketball game last year. And, Larry Birkhead and Howard K Stern's alleged affair comes to light in a scandalous new book about Anna Nicole Smith called Blonde Ambition: The Untold Story Behind Anna Nicole Smith's Death. According to the book, Anna Nicole and a friend walked in on the pair giving each other head. Apparently, Anna Nicole knew the pair were gay but went ahead with having a child with Larry because she wanted a blonde and blue-eyed baby. A friend of Anna Nicole's reported the headjob scene by saying that "their bodies were intermingled. It was obvious what was happening." Stern's lawyers have threatened to sue, but we're a little disturbed by the thought of these two guys being naked and "intermingled" and, frankly, by the use - in this day and age - of the word "intermingled" in this context. Unlike our other hot pair, Larry and Howard aren't too hot-looking. We wished the third all-male Hollywood romance had been up to the standard of the previous two, but we can always imagine. At DNA we decided the hottest gay celeb fantasy affair would be between Rusty Joiner and Matthew McConaughey - what would be your idea of the hottest all-male Hollywood love affair?

Another Gay on the Bay.



One of the best events of this years Pride Festival is sure to be the first ever Pride Sail Day aboard Wally Cowin’s Beautiful Yacht ‘Solo’. Departing at 7.30am on Sunday the 17th of June from the William Gunn Jetty in Manly, the group will sail to Morton Island to swim, snorkel, sand board or just visit the resort.

SOLO is one of Australia’s most famous racing and cruising yachts. The classical 17.5 metre cutter is the only four times winner of the Sydney to Hobart race and has circumnavigated the world 3 times. SOLO has now opened her decks for the first time to the Pride Festival so that you too can experience the history and excitement of yachting luxury.

The skipper Wally is not only an experienced sailor but also one of the leaders of the Brisbane gay community. He knows that we want beautiful surrounds and to be well looked after, so included in the package is city pick-up and a full buffet lunch served on board.

TENNIS 08.05.07

Well what started out being a quiet nite with only 5 players taking to the Court has ended up being worse then a shiatsu on a stick!

Drama in the Camp as we now have a change in the top 3 bitches running for the coveted 2nd season award – yes my friends our Illustrious Mark (I am so Treasury) has been knocked off his first pole by Marcus who has been quietly cuming up the rear and now taking the head, closely followed on his behind by Mdme Bing our wonderful sexretary and a very close 3some is Mark Treasury.

This will not sit well with Ross (who arrived in the attire of one of the All-Bleks tonight), as the barks have it that if Mark does not win, then Ross goes without – and we aint talking going without the adoption of their soon to be arrival either! Although perhaps we are talking about another doggie – but then that’s another story.

Mdme Chair, the ever Kewl Frostydog, was on heat all night and didn’t stop sweating it out and Kewl Kalm and Kollected (KKK) Adam was, as usual as kewl as a Taringian can be.

Marcus found the side line all night much to his like and became a bone in Frostydog’s backside (so to speak), whilst Sunny Bing preferred to see how many balls he could keep out of the court for the night (closely followed by Adam).

The nite started with singles, ended with doubles and (for the benefit of Treasury Mark), $8.00 richer with payment being received from Adam R)

We look forward to your company next week.

Mid week joke

A gay was frantically driving down the street in a panic because he had an important meeting and couldn't find a parking place. Looking up toward heaven, he said "Lord, take pity on me. If you find me a parking place, I will go to mass every sunday for the rest of my life, and not only that, I'll never look at another man." Miraculously, a parking space appeared. The guy looked up again and said, "Never mind, I found one."

The Masters watched tennis in dismay - yet another squeal from Ross as he goes to hit the ball. Yeah whatever, some guys turned up and some didn’t – some guys coughed their lungs out whilst others just hit the balls out – some guys lost the balls and others didn’t fetch them – usual night.
