So, for anyone who’s wondering what the hot indie look for summer is, apparently white t-shirts and arm tattoos. Other than that, I neglected my hell of architecture work last tuesday night to meet my friend Peggy at the Silver Platter to see “an S&M performance.” Why would I want to stare at lines and arcs in autocad when I could see some leather and whips? What she didn’t tell me was that, A. the Silver Platter would be full of gay (and straight?) HOT young hipsters B. the S&M performance would be by the master himself Ron Athey. Many of my mentors in art school advised me to see a Ron Athey performance if I ever had a chance, and it was just by pure luck (brought on by my friend Peggy) that I ended up in a tiny gay club surrounded by foxy kids with the privilege of watching 9 feet of beeds pulled out of Athey’s ass only 5 feet away. Note, the above hotties are our friend Paul and his gorgeous and sweet boyfriend Daniel. Can’t wait to see more of these kids and this place this summer.
