  • Entertainment Reviews DANNY LA
    Chair’s Blog ear readers, welcome to your August magazine. You may just read this before the end of July as the magazine is published a week prior to the end of each month, so you may be able to get to the last event in the July calendar, Weston-S-Mare Pride. D This is an important event for us and as I am writing this in the middle of July so you will have to wait for the September magazine for a report on it. The reason I have mentioned it is that this year has been and still is a very busy time for GayWest and also very exciting. One of the advantages of the group is that we are completely self- funding and all the income we receive is from yourselves and donations. By being self-funding we are in control of our finances, good or bad and are not reliant on council or state grants that can be stopped at any time. We have heard of many LGBT organisations having to disband due to losing their grants this year. Over the last couple of years we have been able to increase our membership and it now stands at almost 90 members. 60% of you receive this magazine online which keeps the printing cost down considerably, however being the generous lot that we are we have splashed out this month on a full colour addition as we celebrate our summer events. There will be a limited number of magazines for sale at the Rainbow Café for £2.00p each, and of course you can download and print as many of them as you wish yourselves.

  • AIDS - the First 20 Years
    Downloaded from simongarfield.com © Simon Garfield 2005 AIDS - The First 20 Years On 5 June 1981, a medical journal reported a mysterious illness that had killed five young gay men in Los Angeles. A lot has happened since then. The Observer, June 2001 Part one: The Memory 1 Dan versus Danny Soon it will be time for Danny La Rue to sing. At the Pleasance theatre in north London at the beginning of May 2001, the 73-year-old entertainer stands onstage in a blue dress and high white hair and announces that he has been in show business for 51 years. He has some personal observations about Bill Clinton ('He propositioned me in the Oval Office!') and Zsa Zsa Gabor ('She was wearing so many feathers you could have stuck them up her arse and she'd have flown home'), and then he launches into a suggestive song he used to sing on the Good Old Days. As he sings, the occasional glittery bead and sequin drops from his dress. This, bizarrely, is rather good entertainment, and is relished by an enthusiastic audience of sweet-smelling moneyed gay men, tonight being a fundraising night for the Aids charity Crusaid. Tickets cost £30 per head, including a smoked-salmon titbit in the interval and a post-show video-signing session with Danny in the foyer. The night is divided into two parts. In the first, 'Danny La Rue' shimmies around doing his rude- marrow song and Marlene Dietrich routine, and in the second 'Dan' comes out in black shirt and gold medallion and slightly less make-up, and talks about his friendships with Barbara Windsor, Ronnie Corbett and his eventful and unique career as an actor, singer, club owner, window dresser and drag artist.
