(or Tuesday) after work. At the next major dance event
(Halloween’s upon us) as you chat and flirt on the dance
floor. On Election Day. “Did you vote?” “Why not? “I’ll
drive you!” “Don’t be apathetic.” “Yes, it does matter.”
“Make it matter.”
How about at White Party in Miami? How can you make it
easier for Care Resource and the White Party to continue
hosting their event year after year? It isn’t always about
money. An hour of service a week or a well-written letter
to the Miami Visitors Bureau might make all the difference.
Don’t forget that it was people just like us who
formed these events originally to help those in need.
Engage those around you in civic-minded conversation.
We can’t ask DJs to announce the next set of important
initiatives in the middle of a party (much like they actually
do at church), but promoters can use the power of the
community they help form to get the word out on initiatives
and laws that need to be challenged or changed.
Don’t wait for someone else to do it, do it yourself. Ask a
promoter, set up a table, start an online group.
It’s all about using the power we have as a focused,
concentrated, and highly motivated group of dance and
music enthusiasts to create real change. Given the massive
size of the Pride, festival, Circuit and dance communities
in this country, there are potentially millions of us
that can make a difference. And when we decide to make
a statement, it’s always loud and proud.
In this issue...
CIty SpotlIght: Boston is full of history, cool clubs and
hot college boys, and home to America’s first bad boys’
costume tea party. Once you get past some of the stiff
collars, this historical New England hub is a great place
to play.
pRoMotER SpotlIght: Chris Harris has renewed New
England nightlife. If you go out to any big clubs in Boston
or you’re a regular at the major Circuit events in the U.S.
or Canada, chances are you’ve been to one of Chris
Harris’ events. We’re excited to feature him in this issue.
DoUBlE DJ SpotlIghtS - JoE gAUthREAUX &
MICKy FRIEDMANN: Rising Circuit star Joe Gauthreaux
is having a stellar year, and it ain’t over yet. Joe’s a travelin’
man, not only professionally, but in his personal life
as well. The New Orleans native, who left the Big Easy
five years ago for the Big Apple, has relocated to the Big
Orange. Micky Friedmann also gets around. The Israeli
native lives in Berlin, but having played all the biggest
clubs and parties in Europe, he’s now setting his sights
on America.
