'The aim of our show is to entertain people with the notion that
sexual expression is healthy and beautiful... and funny.' - Cass King

Picture a husband and wife team from the golden age of comedy. Now picture them singing sweetly about threesomes and taking it in the ass. Internationally acclaimed cabaret duo The Wet Spots (Cass King and John Woods) write the most elegant songs about sex that you will ever hear.

The Wet Spots' award-winning new show SHINE: A Burlesque Musical is co-produced by the Seattle Erotic Art Festival, and makes its American debut at the Theater Off Jackson July 8-18.

Join the Wet Spots at the More and then stay for the rest of the party!

Tamara the Trapeze Lady's benefit for the YWCA's Women's Health Outreach Program

Benefit for Women's Health Outreach on Thursday June 17th by Tamara's Broadway Follies

For those in the community that know Tamara, it will come as no surprise that she is doing her last 'official' show to benefit the YWCA's Women's Health Outreach Program (WHO).  By Tamara donating proceeds of this Thursdays event she supports the goal of WHO to educate women about breast and cervical health and to provide low-income and medically underserved women 40 and over with annual no-cost mammogram screenings and linkage to regular health care.  I hope to see many of you at this event to support two incredible forces coming together!  We can support both Tamara and WHO just by showing up and having a great time with friends!

Members of the Rainbow Health Fair Committee will be attending events and posting them here over the next few weeks.  We will be handing out informational cards, answering questions and reminding people about the upcoming Rainbow Health Fair on June 26th.  We will be easy to find as we share our enthusiasm for our great peer providers and services that are being offered for the LBT (lesbian, bisexual, trans) community.

Laughing Ladies Women's Music Festival July 15th - 18th

Laughing Ladies is having their 2nd Music Festival over 4 days with an impressive line up starting Thursday July 15th with Pourquoi Pas, Amber Darland, Camille Bloom followed on Friday 16th by Eva Tree, Allison Shirk, Jillian Graham Band and Paula Maya.  Saturday's show will feature Willow and the Embers, Jennifer Youngs, Val D'Alessio and Susan Harper with the final show on Sunday the 18th closing with Karyn Michaelson, Gabrielle Louise and Sheryl Madden.  Each days show begins at 6pm.  Beer and Wine will be available.  Check Seattle Announcements Calendar for the lineup.

I encourage you all to visit Laughing Ladies Cafe.  Their events are listed on the calendar.  I have dropped by on several occasions for different purposes and have found this a wonderful place on each visit.  They have great pastries and coffee which I have enjoyed very late in the day.  The actual food looked yummy although I did not eat what one would call a meal (but I did talk to a couple people that did and they gave positive reviews).  I will be trying the food soon!

I have composed posts on my laptop and surfed the net while sipping wonderful latte's made just the way I like them.  On one visit I was so comfy in an easy chair that I admit I feel asleep for a few.  I was just so damn relaxed!  I am sure they do not want to be advertised as the place to come and take a nap!  But...they do create a nice atmosphere.

The point is -- that this is a very comfortable home away from home, call it a coffee shop, place to meet friends, conduct a business meeting, do your homework, read a book, check your email (they have pc's you can use for 15 minutes for free with a coffee order, a nominal charge after that), or bring your own laptop (no charge) and they have great music and comedy in the evening.  It just rocks!
