Who’s Going Bananas?

We are feeling sprung!

Did you see the headline of the NY Post after that Chimpanzee ate some lady’s face? “Furious George”! Who writes this stuff? We absolutely adore the headlines at the Post, which is great because that means we don’t have to buy it and read their hideous content. The Post looks much better on the outside than it does on the inside. We have so much in common! The only difference? All the content you need to read is right here in the good ol’ Gay List Daily!

Calling all Clans!
Tartan Parade
Saturday, April 4, 2:00 p.m.
Bring on Brigadoon! When we hear Scotland, we think of lovely Cyd Charisse plucking heather from the hill. Well, that and hairy men in skirts! Out actor Alan Cumming leads the Scottish clans as they march in kilts and blow bagpipes in the Tartan parade. We’re promised 602 pipes and the world’s largest Caber – which is some sort of wooden phallus weighing 600 lbs. Somebody call Freud!

Free
Begins sharply at 2:00 p.m.
Marches North on 6th Avenue from 45th Street to 58th Street
