But no you’ve read on, it’s Pussy Faggot! Rather than just a term of abuse it’s the name of one of the world’s best art club/installation and it’s bringing its world tour to London.]]> http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?feed=rss2&p=2365 0 http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?p=2358 http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?p=2358#comments Fri, 30 Mar 2012 01:35:43 +0000 Londongay http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?p=2358 For many Madonna is the Queen of pop, and the lunch of a new album from here tends to drive those fans into a frenzy. Good news if you’re one of the Material Girl’s super-fans is you’re not alone. Every year team Madge throw Fan Parties, which see hundreds of Madonna fans from all over the world get together to celebrate, dance and sing to 8 hours+ of non-stop Madonna music.]]> http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?feed=rss2&p=2358 0 http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?p=2351 http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?p=2351#comments Sat, 17 Mar 2012 11:37:26 +0000 Londongay http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?p=2351 The line-up has been announced for this year's BFI London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival, which takes place from 23 March to 1 April 2012.

Probably more reliable than a cuckoo or the Groundhog, the coming of Eurovision is a sure sign spring is on its way. It’s a time for high camp, and when friends try and out-do each other with their Eurovision parties. However one party tops them all, the Make A Difference Trust West End Eurovision event. This is a late night extravaganza where starts of the West End try to beat each other performing past Eurovision songs.]]> http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?feed=rss2&p=2347 0 http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?p=2343 http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?p=2343#comments Sat, 03 Mar 2012 12:39:04 +0000 Londongay http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?p=2343 Love her or loathe her, you can’t help but laugh at Pam Ann’s childish and often racist humour. She is the comedian you know you aren’t meant to find funny; she’s everyone’s naughty secret. The good news is she’s back for a two-week run at the Bloomsbury Theatre. So book your seats and strap yourself in!]]> http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?feed=rss2&p=2343 0 http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?p=2340 http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?p=2340#comments Sat, 25 Feb 2012 12:34:45 +0000 Londongay http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?p=2340 From the glorious sunshine today in London you’d think that spring was well and truly on its way. However balls (of the dancing kind!) are made for winter, so we can see what the people at Whatever World mean with their Steampunk Tango Winter Ball which officially marks the end of LGBT History Month.]]> http://gaylondontravel.com/blog/?feed=rss2&p=2340 0
