Re: Whats the Alternative Gay persons choice in Entertainment (music,Film,Books)?
Mon, February 26, 2007 - 5:11 PMI came out at 28. By then my musical tastes were set. I love rock and roll and the blues. Trying to find someone to go with me to a local venue is too hard a search. I enjoyed disco when I first came out and then rapidly reached a point where I thought "Is THIS all gay people like?" I wanted to go to a leather bar that had some hard rock playing instead of feather-boa tossing disco diva tunes. Certainly wasn't here in Atlanta. Once or twice while visiting Southern CA, I'd hit a bar and feel the testosterone surging with some hot rock.
Quentin Crisp (look him up if you don't know him) said "A lifetime of disco is too high a price to pay for my sexuality." If I had little else in common with that man, this one statement won me over.
Otherwise, I also love world music (broad category for sure), big band, dirty soul, occasional classical pieces, new age, ambient (mind numbing works for me after a hard day's work). Because of my love for Renaissance faires, I'm developing an interest in some of the music from the period.

Re: Whats the Alternative Gay persons choice in Entertainment (music,Film,Books)?
Mon, February 26, 2007 - 6:21 PMI should have born into the British class system or a jew, which doesn't explain my hardcore love of funk and soul. My musical tastes have certainly grown according to there own plans. I didn't like country until I met my ex and he schooled me in it's incarnations and history. I didn't come to like Led Zepplin until I had gone from Jazz, then Rock'nRoll, New Wave, Soul, and Blues and Gospel. I guess I'm trying to not pre-judge anymore. I do have certain things that yank my crank, like the Mamas and the Papas, Lambert Hendricks and Ross and Sergio Mendes. Because I'm a singer, I am attracted to vocal music and vocal harmony.
Books, hmm. For a good portion I pretty much only read Science Fiction. I like biographies, science, history art and architecture. I'm not a big poetry fan. My current favorite book of all time is "I Capture the Castle" by Dodie Smith. I love Dorothy L. Sayers and John Hersey, too. Since Pop Culture is my bailiwick, People and National Enquirer are necessary. Does porn count?
Film: I worked at an Art House movie chain for ten years and have little patience for spending money on poorly put together movies anymore. I am not a fan of Horror in general or War movies. I like Haley Mills and Pre-Code and Screwball. I've stopped liking foreign and art-house just cause. My favorite movies are Thoroughly Modern Millie and Babette's Feast. I also like Shakes the Clown and Dude, Where's my Car. I was most disappointed in American Beauty.
I'm pretty much a Pop Culture whore. So, if you are paying, I'm there. -

Re: Whats the Alternative Gay persons choice in Entertainment (music,Film,Books)?
Tue, February 27, 2007 - 8:09 AMTv: (When i get a chance to watch....and there will be periods of absolutely NO TV watchage...) I will watch (almost) anything on these networks; Discovery, Discovery Times, Discovery Health, History, History international, TLC, Science Channel. I'm quite fond of the First 48. it gets addictive. Since im a documentary hound those channel will provide with my fix in under an hour. Suffice to say i love public television esspecially PBS. Nove and Frontline are always stapples when i'm in front of the talking window. When I'm feeling as if i want some microwaved junk for the mind vh1's gaggle of celeb reality/pop culture-centric programming hits the spot. Best week Ever and I Love New York are shows i Tivo. Yes. I Tivo. I still carry a torch for Six Feet Under. Masters of Horror on Showtime. and I ador The L word because the lezzies in suits and big bank accounts put on a better show than we ever did. Adult swim on Cartoon Network. The Hunger force rocks...and absolutely anything else they program is mandatory late night viewing. Project Runway,Top Design and Top Chef interest me bacause they showcase the creative process and talented people with imaginations actually compete and win. The only reality game shows i can tolerate are on Bravo. and I watch Soap Operas. Have since i was a little child...so i keep up with them from time to time. I said it. *sigh* a closet case no more.
Books: Strange thing is i dont read much fiction. I still read Aldous Huxly, william S boroughs, Irvine Welsh and a few other novelist who are newer, who put out the more experimental novels that get press...... but I don't regularly search for Fiction novels to read and be inspired by as i do with non fiction. Most of the books i read i dont even know the authors names... but Peter Russell, David Icke,Howard Bloom and Richard Dawkins come to mind in people i follow. Books i own and read currently: 50 things you are not supposed to know 2, Everything you know about Sex is wrong, The Einstien Factor, Real Boys: Rescusing our sons from the myths of boyhood, The lucifer Principle, the Selfish Gene.
Music: Boards of Canada!! Radiohead!!......... and............ Air, Sigur Ros, Bjork, Can, Pink Floyd, Nina simone, Aphex twin, Sterolab, Tim Hecker, Autecre, Beth Gibbons,Goldfrapp, Animal Collective, Fennesz, Devendra Banhart, Portishead, Massive Attack, Vitalic,Goldfrapp, Cocteau twins, The Fiery Furnaces, The Chemical Brothers, Broadcast,Peaches, Daedelus, The Future Sound of London, Cyann&Ben, The Clientele, Prefuse 73, Isolee, The Jaun Maclean, Beck, Comets on Fire, Zero 7, Alec Empire, Johnny Greenwood, Tortoise, The Books,Clinic, The Beta Band, Brian Eno, Phillip Glass, Max Richter, Four Tet, Tricky, Belle and Sebastian, Bibio, Supergrass, Wilco, Marumari, Blonde Redhead, Daniel Johnston, Dungen, Espers, Seefeel, Deerhoof, Cat power, Plastikman, Excepter, William Basinski, LCD Soundsystem, Pj Harvey....................
get the idea.
Film: By Directors- Ingmar Bergman,Stanley Kubrick, Gregg Araki (I'll forget he made Splendor) Jean-Luc Godard, Darren Aronofsky, Orson Wells, Lars Von Trier, Thomas Vinterberg, Pierre Paolo Passolini, John Waters, Andy Warhol (he made SOME really good films), michael Gondry. Todd Solondz.
Some favorite films of mine i will watch over and over again.
Magnolia, The Seventh Seal, Wild Strawberries. HAPPINESS. (I know the dialogue inside out! That film is the bible for the Human condition) The Doom Generation. Fritz the Cat. Neverending story. Dogville. The Celebration. Serial Mom.
thats all i'll display. :P

besides that, my all time favourite series is definitely Six Feet under, Oz takes second place

Re: Whats the Alternative Gay persons choice in Entertainment (music,Film,Books)?
Thu, March 1, 2007 - 3:53 PMStuff you can buy: Classic soul, especially the Muscle Shoals sessions: Clarence Carter, Young Aretha, Staples Signers -- basicly anthing Rick Hall produced and Roger Hawkins was on drums and David Hood on bass; cool jazz like Mike Franks; Morphine, AC/DC, X, Pine Hills Haints, Driveby Truckers (old school DBT before they first went to Europe), acoustic Appalachian string music, Beethoven, Gavin Bryers, Cure, Clash, New Order, Eno, Astrid Hadad...pretty electic.
Stuff you can't buy: any band that sounds cool and I like their word of mouth.
Books: Confederacy of Dunces, Moo, Down by the Riveside, Maupin's Tales, a lot of dry academic stuff.
Visual art: Socialist Realism (I find the sincerity charming and technique outstanding), old Soviet War Posters, B&W photogs, especially those with excrutingly painful styling and ageless.
Movies: Almodovar, Manon series, le Retour de Martin Guerre, The Hunger, Saw (scared the bejesus out of me), old Hitchcock, Eisenstein.
TV: Law and Order freak, love to scream and hiss at the "contestants" on the VH1 and MTV shows, C-Span (especially 2), Democracy Now and other LINK TV shows, Family Guy (I root for Stewie to kill his mom and both Meg and Chris and the Pewterschmidts with her). Hitler Channel sometimes, TDC, A&E sometimes, PBS a lot -- gonna be more when Moyers is back on or something novel like the modern production the Met did of The Magic Flute. And a horse and mule training show that is on a back channel! -

I read that on a Key West vacation. A few years later I took it with me to New Orleans and read it again, all over the French Quarter. I'd read about a location and go look for it. LOVED IT.

I appreciate that, I never understood the idea that alternative was like a club, or brand, or some mark that we wear, that other people would identify me as alternative. Alternative is so personal, there are very few that stand out from the crowd as alternative when we look at every one.

Wed, March 7, 2007 - 11:04 AMOK, I've been listening to a compilation of the Mamas and the Papas first four albums on my MP3 player for the last two months and John Phillips is a genius. Lyrically he is so adult and right on. I rarely hear lyrics that can be pithy, real and devastating. And, harmonically he is unparalleled. While Dancing Bear is probably his best song, the songs on the last album are the most complex and satisfying. He mixes folk, ragtime, rock, psychedelia and blues/funk masterfully. I'm also reading a book by Matthew Greenwald called Go Where You Wanna Go: An Oral History of the Mamas & the Papas. It explicates the process of recording a hit album from the musicians themselves. It is certainly less harrowing than John Phillips' autobiography. -

Thu, March 8, 2007 - 9:48 PMNo TV at all!
It's a waste of time and Brain Cells!
I surf the Computer and listen to music when not working,of course working with Dogs all day is my 'life' and not 'WORK' anyway so I love it!
I rent Netflix and play e'm on the home theater when the Dogs are quiet(rare 'Moments' LOL).
No clubs(gay/straight) I'm wayyyy over that! an ocassional trip to a Seattle bath 3x a yr.
and when the sun shines(a rarity up 'Here') I'm either out on my Recumbent or in the woods or lakes with my Dogs.
My Film taste runs from 'Action/Adventure' to off-beat gay flix(non-porn type) to oldies-but-goodies. The only films I can't stand are hetero love stories because every 1/2 hr it's 'her tits and his ass'(Booorrring!)
My book reading tends to be on the Internet these days,and It's mostly either political,or end of the world disaster type reads!
My Music is decidedly rock oriented,NO 'Classical crap'. I like oldies rock to metal Everything from the Who to Kiss to Mettalica and AC/DC ,and play a Fender Strat(rock of course!). Bubble gum Pop(a-la Brittney Spears?) Fughettabout that! In my 'day' Pop was The partridge Family *UGH!
That about sums it up! -

Re: Whats the Alternative Gay persons choice in Entertainment (music,Film,Books)?
Tue, March 6, 2007 - 4:42 PMMolly's so alternative, Molly don't read, Molly don't listen to music or watch movies........Molly spends time on the internet, and aparently(because Molly won't say) does all kinds of alternative stuff that no one can find out about, because them it might not be alternative anymore....Right Molly....
Molly is so alternative that Molly only responds to things that she finds Non alternative.......
Molly is sooooo alternative that Molly only tells people that they are not alternative.......
I'm gonna start a new thread.....

Sat, March 3, 2007 - 2:08 PMPeople why are you even responding to her?
Her opinions matter about as much as the shit on my toilet paper.
Actually the TP may be just a LITTLE more important depending on how you look at it and to some of us "gay pride" "str8/gay clubs", "equality" etc, etc...DO NOT APPLY.
I'm curious to hear more interests and lists. -

Sat, March 3, 2007 - 4:00 PMIt's just the annoyance of having to deal with drive-by noodle-lashings from the self-loathing energies of someone who publicly holds everyone to some arbitrary set of golden standards that they keep only in their own head. Molly came in, judged everyone defective, declared herself victor of some mole hill in central Ohio, and then left.
If Molly is even 1/16th as good as she pretends to hold everyone else, then we have truly been blessed by the Goddess with such mite-E-ness...
If I had a YTL for every time that a Molly did... -

Sun, March 4, 2007 - 12:39 PMIt was a snarky paraphrasing of the "if I had a Euro for every time, blah, blah, molly-blah" comment. YTL was the first thing to come to mind (certainly I have spent enough of them, yeni (new) and eski (old)). :-) -

Tue, March 6, 2007 - 3:11 PMHi Wally (good name btw)
<<it's just the annoyance of having to deal with drive-by noodle-lashings>>
does that make any sense....even to you?
<<from the self-loathing>>
ahh that old chestnut
<<self loathing energies>>
a Star Trek fan I presume
<<of someone who publicly holds everyone to some arbitrary set of golden standards that they keep only in their own head>>
Where else does one keep ones standards? Maybe in the general consensus of others opinion? Eh, Wally??
<< judged everyone defective>>
not *everyone*
<< Ohio>>
where?
<<then left>>

Re: Whats the Alternative Gay persons choice in Entertainment (music,Film,Books)?
Wed, March 7, 2007 - 5:40 AMMusic- anything really, I am a bit of a slut when it comes to a music....
My first concert ever was Alice Cooper Trash, then Depeche Mode and Nitzer Ebb.
Tori Amos, Peter Gabriel and Sufjan Stevens get a lot of air time these days.
Wycliff Jean and Steve Wonder are inconstant rotation and Loretta Lynn with Jack White gets me every time.
Books...well, I'm not that alternative there. Roald Dahl, John Iriving, david Suzuki, Ann Marie MacDonald......
I love poetry and the cubist writers too...Gertrude Stein is my hero. And I am alway up for a biography, Anti Diva by Carole Pope was the last one I read.
Film - I am a horror buff.....Johnny you rock my world!
I like anything fantastical and whimisical. I LOATHE cinema that reflects reality....i get enough every day.
Fave movies: The Dark Crystal, David Lynch's Dune, Labrynth, Pan's Labrynth, All the Hell Raisers, Darkness Falls, Dream Catcher, Time Bandits (any thing by Terry Gilliam really)
Thanks!

Fri, March 9, 2007 - 5:31 PMThis tribe sucks because of people like Molly who are judgemental, mistakening ellitest and are opposed to peace.
They fight against the machine they are unknowingly a part of.
But Molly isn't Molly. MICK! -

Re: Whats the Alternative Gay persons choice in Entertainment (music,Film,Books)?
Fri, March 9, 2007 - 9:33 PMMick was tame compared to Molly and I can assure you they are 2 different people, Mick is a male lefty that sits in Adelaide AUS while Molly is a Scottish lass living in Amsterdam NL, the only thing they have in common is seeing throu all the bullshit in this tribe, maybe you should ban her as well so that the dribble can continue without ever being challenged -
