I happened upon them on my way to the Pot + Pantry farewell party yesterday, and I thought about taking pics, but I just couldn’t get in there what with the crowd being three or four deep and everybody ‘grammin every second. So I just looked to see who ‘grammed it best:

Toubin and his New York Night Train empire are a pret-ty big deal, so it’s gonna be lovely to have it all here at Rickshaw Stop for a night:
GET DOWN all night long to the extra-exceptional, explosive, and exquisite 1960s soul 45s of globe-trotting New York DJ MR JONATHAN TOUBIN! New York Night Train’s Soul Clap and Dance-Off is North America’s most popular soul party − by far playing to more people in more places and generating more capital than any of its contemporaries. The concept is simple – all night dancing to the wild soul 45s of subterranean superstar NYC DJ Mr. Jonathan Toubin and, in the middle, a $100 CASH PRIZE dance contest judged by a panel of local celebrities.
Here’s a pic I took of Wam Bam Ashleyanne winning the dance-off last time Soul Clap was in town:
Top that!
(Oh and she and I are on the judging panel this time, so be sure to address us as “Your Honor” if you see us. Starting now. Thanx.)
Full length out soon, they say, and they’re headlining Amnesia this Friday!
Day in, day out, be it Saturday night or Wednesday night, happy hour or late-night, rain or shine, this is pretty much the scene:
The Untitled Michael Lannan Comedy, as it’s currently known, centers around “three thirty-something friends living in San Francisco who grapple with all the options in contemporary life and the complexities of the modern gay experience”, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The show’s adapted from a comedic feature script by Lannan called Lorimer. It will star Jonothan Groff, from Glee, who also is apparently dating Zachary Quinto. So . . . there’s your Hollywood gossip.

Anyway, it sounds like they’ll be shooting sometime soon around the neighborhood, possibly at bars like El Rio and Esta Noche. So far HBO has only greenlit the pilot, but just in case it gets picked up I’m thinking about taglines for them.
Going off of the little info I have:
Sex and the City by the Bay
A Story of the Modern Millennial Milieu
Out and About some Boys
Gay Bay Today, Bab-ay
Anyone else?
UPDATE: Casting info includes a “Dancing Bear” stripper and a good looking gay couple with a mixed-race child to hang out in “the park”, which could be Dolores, but I guess people still hang out in other parks . . . ?
Man, seems like we posted this exact news like a jillion years ago. When will this actually happen???
(Thanks, Devin!)
Self Edge has long been the place to bring your jeans for repairs and hemming, but they’ve traditionally used outside contractors for those services. This month, they finally opened up their very own operation, and it is quite a place:
This vintage-style studio will be one of the only of its kind in the country and offers two different types of 1950s Singer Darning Machines, a rare vintage 43200G Union Special Chainstitching Machine and a 1920s Steel Kick Press, along with a dedicated team of sewing experts.
Here’s the team at work, step by step, hemming up a new pair of jeans:
And then boom, you’re all happy about your brand-new pants:
According to an ancient Milanese streetcar. What a difference a century makes.
I wonder how we’ll feel when we look back on this Prop 8 business a hundred years from now.
