George Houston: The Lone Rider
Today’s homily (an occasional one here) concerns the truth that Hollywood is not necessarily the be-all and end-all for all performers. Case in point: singer-actor George Houston (1896-1944). New Jersey native Houston had been a high school track star and an ambulance driver in World War One so he certainly had his plausibly rugged side. But he had also studied opera at the Institute of Musical…

Things That Definitely Made Me GAY (Part 2):
MUSIC ICONS: Part of my Coming Out would be incomplete without the music that found me during that time. I’d wager my survival had every bit to do with the singers, songwriters and entertainers I was playing at the time. I especially credit Madonna, Janet Jackson, Barbara Streisand and Rufus Wainwright. They were the unexpected heroes in my ears everyday reminding me it was okay to embrace the dramatic, funny, complex, sexual situations of life in song.
FILMS: I am a firm believer that people are always searching for bits of themselves in the movies. So, being the teen I was, I wanted to find parts of my being in the movies to be affirmed that I wasn’t alone. Whether it was a documentary or rom-com, I wanted to escape into a potential future or an idea of what it looked like to be a gay man in 2009. Documentaries were a gift from heaven because I got to see where we had been and where we were going. I still feel that way as a 30 year old. I feel like I still am eager to see stories of us and find parts of myself on celluloid.
VOGUEING/PARIS IS BURNING: This movie quite simply changed and saved my life in a LOT of ways. When Madonna’s Vogue (BEST SONG FOREVER ON REPEAT) came into my life, my godmother introduced to me to the Houses of New York City, the Ballrooms and the origins of Vogueing. I had never felt so seen as a black gay person in a film prior to seeing PIB. It was the antidote to existing in a suburb in Washington. To know I wasn’t alone in the world and that there was a place beyond Washington where people like me exist, was (and still is) the greatest gift anyone, especially from kin, could’ve given me.
QUEER AS FOLK: THIS SHOW TOOK ME THERE. I remember hiding the box sets at many friends’ houses when I first had come out. While the show can be a bit dated, the stories and original characters really shaped what being a part of the LGBTQ+ community could potentially be as I grew into adulthood.
HISTORY: When I first came out, I made it my personal mission to read up on all things gay history to understand who came before me and whose footsteps I was walking behind. I found so much solace in the bravery we displayed as a community. I know that I am free to be me because of the folks who came before me. I hope that as time goes on, we discover more unsung gay heroes.
HEROES: I went out to of my way to find people who were like me and people who had the same interests as me. Finding people who made me feel understood and created the work to express all the facets of not only the human experience but the gay experience. Whether it be through dance, poetry, filmmaking or photography, I credit these artists for saving my life through their work.
FATSO: Some kids first cartoon crushes were Aladdin, Hercules, HELL, I could even bet that some had crushes on The Beast, BEFORE HE BECAME HUMAN! Me? Mine was (and still is) Fatso. Some have read him as a queer coded character and for my sake, I really hope that it’s true.
PORN & The Pornstars That Make Em’ : As weird as it may seem, discovering Porn really helped me feel liberated and free to understand my sexuality and what I really liked. Also..boy, oh boy, the men and the videos that still to this day..get me off is a list that’s too long to count. From Zeb Atlas to Tom Katt, these men served the fantasies that were so hot and beefy, I still can’t believe my eyes. Being gay certainly has its perks.
NOAH’S ARC: In the same vein as QAF, Noah’s Arc made me feel not only seen as a gay man but as a black man. I love that the show gave the community so many versions of our existence. Making us more than a side character or the uplifting and sassy character, at that. We were portrayed as human and proof that we exist.

Новости из бункера: как и ожидалось, милый щеночек по имени Хьюстон вырос в большую страшную овчарку и прекрасно справляется со своими обязанностями!
И первой под раздачу попала бедняга Джесс. «Что ж, теперь мы квиты, Прайс», — мрачно усмехается агент Сигворт, держась за укушенный локоть. Слава Смотрящему, собачьи зубы оставили на ее коже лишь парочку царапин! А вот стильный форменный пиджак, по всей видимости, придется отправить в мусорное ведро.
(News from the bunker: as expected, a cute pup Houston has grown into a big horrific sheepdog and copes with his duties perfectly!
And poor Jess was the first to get hit. "Well, now we're even, Pries," Agent Sigworth grinned grimly, holding her bitten elbow. Thank the Watcher, the dog's teeth had only left just a couple scratches on her skin! But the stylish uniform jacket would probably have to go in the trashbox).

Year-End Poll #39: 1988
Tumblr media

The sound of the 80's continues to cement itself in a variety of ways. But this also marks the year Billboard began publishing its Modern Rock Tracks chart (later renamed to Alternative Songs), which will become even more notable in a few years.
But when examining the sound of 80's pop, I need to shine the spotlight on Stock Aitken Waterman, the songwriting trio known for their loud drum machines, booming synth lines, and their "assembly line" method of song production. You may recognize them from their work on tracks such as Dead or Alive's You Spin Me Round (Like a Record), Bananarama's Venus, and of course, Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up. Even if most of the songs attributed to them aren't as widely remembered (and they produced a lot so that's not a knock against them), any song of theirs could be used in a soundtrack as a shorthand way to let audiences know "this scene takes place in the 80's."
Either because of or in spite of SAW's production sound being so tied to the pop music of its decade, the group has been rather controversial. That "assembly line" comment I made was not an offhand comment, but one of the terms used at the time to both describe and criticize the group's style. I know that nowadays, people don't trust any links that are in close proximity to the mention of Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up. Anyway, here's an article that goes into how Stock Aitken Waterman produced the track. Trust me.
