yes, we already know we're getting a rerun of last year's, which means we'll be hearing Carl Bean's fantabulous "I Was Born This Way"... and I stumbled across this interesting post, on a blog I'm unfamiliar with, about Bean, Lady Gaga etc.

I seem to remember Rufus Wainwright making an appearance in last year's set. If so, yay!

Hmmmm... it appears to be a new set. I've requested the old standby "Girls And Boys".
-
AL's request thread is quite underwhelming, IMHO.
But the "WTF?" post in that thread is this from a guy named David Benda: "thanks for the warning...right up there w/ the old 'sledgehammers' and dedication/'I'm so precious' nonsense we used to dread."
er, whaa??
-
Whatever on the silly FBer requests/comments (not ours!). I'm looking forward to the new spin. Any Sylvester is good for me.
-
Village People to start. It's a glory (hole) story! "Every gesture there has a meaning" -- no shit, sherlock.
-
BOS Tales of the City.
-
The lead singer (the cop) had quite a struggle with life, substance abuse, homelssness. He lived in a squat on Page street back in the 90s with some other crack heads before they all got kicked out. San Francisco, indeed.
Good to hear a song about PFLAG: Take your momma out~! Let's hear it for supportive parents!
-
BOS2 Bowie, who's only dancing. Sure you are, sweetheart...
-
"I went to a bar-mtzvah once, that doesn't make me Jewish": LOL! Can never remember where that's from. BOS3 Blur, of course.
ETA: The Opposite of Sex.
-
Blurring the gender codes and constructs between Girls and Boys gets a BOS.
-
Just a kiss from kd to "Miss Chatelaine". VHM.
Someone on FB thought Blur was the Pet Shop Boys ::)
-
Wig in a box! wish it was from the movie soundtrack, though
-
BOS4 "Wig in a Box"
-
Wig in a box! wish it was from the movie soundtrack, though
is this the Polyphonic Spree version?
-

I *thought* it was different. I like it, though.
-
Ha! Miss Ross comes out -- iirc, Dave never played this one. So, VHMFRA. fab Chic production.
-

It might be, or perhaps it's the stage version (if that exists?) .... all I know is the one I always play from the movie sounds different.
another BOS for Diana... nice, uplifting major key disco.
-
BOS for Ellen. That was such a great episode.
-
tee hee, what was that clip from? reminds me a very crude Joe Rogan comedy bit where he and his friend are lifting weights and showing off their muscles to each other and explicit gay hilarity ensues.
-
BOS5 JJ, an old Morey Pride fave.
-
tee hee, what was that clip from? reminds me a very crude Joe Rogan comedy bit where he and his friend are lifting weights and showing off their muscles to each other and explicit gay hilarity ensues.
Will & Grace
Joe Rogan is a major meathead/douchebag.
-
Good clip from Glee. I saw that episode. Powerful stuff.
-
not a huge Glee fan, but kudos to them for their diverse casting, storylines, etc.
wow, this song is FAB-yoo-lus!
-
uber-BOS6 Carl Bean -- happy, carefree, and GAY, bitch!
-

Hear, hear! It'd be cool if she went for another song too--maybe The Origin of Love (not that I'm sick of Wig In A Box).
ETA: Yes, that was the P-Spree version from the Hedwig tribute record. The stage version isn't that different from the movie soundtrack.
-

BOS Sylvester. Gettin my disco on.

Will & Grace
Joe Rogan is a major meathead/douchebag.
Could be, you mean his politics? I remember him from News Radio and then Fear Factor of course, he also does color commentary on MMA/Ultimate fighting shows, which I found disturbingly interesting when I had cable. The clip about the weight lifters I know from hearing it on the old airwaves Howard Stern show.
Would be good to hear some movie clips from the 80s, like My Beautiful Laundrette, Parting Glances. Glee, Will & Grace, etc owe a lot to them, and then again, they owe a lot to those that came before.
BOSylvester in perpetuity!

I try never to log into FB on work computer. Fear...... I felt compelled to do it to share my Sylvester enthusiasm.

Rogan is now a wholly owned subsidiary of MMA -- a couple years ago they had him on some ESPN talk show to "debate" with someone about MMA vs. boxing (which is better? is MMA usurping boxing in the sports hierarchy? etc). The boxing guy made a comment and then Rogan *SCREAMED* at him like a complete lunatic for 3 minutes about how MMA is gonna kick boxing's ass and so on -- he looked like a total asshole. It was unbelieveable. And yet funny, because MMA is the Gayest. Sport. Evah.

Looking at last year's, I didn't really miss Melisseridge or Rufus W or Mr/Ms DiFranco. Nice that there are so many songs to choose from that the set can change from year to year.
-

No kidding. Only four repeats between this year and last. (I haven't checked back to see what AL played in 2009, but I will.) What makes that really significant is that for the six Pride sets listed in the Shraytabase (2002 and 2004-08), there are only 17 different songs among all of them. Dave had his favorites, and for the most part he stuck to them.
Full disclosure: Three of those sets, 2005, 2006 and 2007, have identical setlists. 2006 is listed as a repeat of the previous year, but 2007 is noted as being a "dupe setlist but not classic." So does that mean Dave just played the same 10 songs in the same order, with a live intro and backsell?
ETA: Here's AL's first Pride setlist from 2009. And the same four songs turn up again: Sylvester, Carl Bean, Blur, and Polyphonic Spree, plus the Ani diFranco song appeared in 09 and 10 but dropped out this year. So I guess AL has her faves just as Dave did.
6/26/09 - FRIDAY!!!!! Today it's the LGBT Pride set!
1. Sylvester - You Make Me Feel Mighty Real
(Movie: Milk)
2. Carl Bean - I Was Born This Way
(TV: Queer As Folk)

(TV: Queer As Folk)
4. Timbuk 3 - Legalize Our Love
(TV: Seinfeld)
5. Pansy Division - That's So Gay!
(News: Rob Halford comes out)
6. Judas Priest - Hell Bent For Leather
(Movie: Opposite of Sex)
7. Ani DiFranco - In or Out
(Movie: Transamerica)
8. Polyphonic Spree - Wig in a Box
(News: UPI on the street)
9. The Smiths - How Soon is Now?
10. Blur - Girls & Boys
BONUS TRACK (from Lenny in SF): Petshop Boys - Go West

Good analysis, to which I would add that we are in the FB era as well as the AL era and that has meant diversity (and bustouts galore) across the board on 10@10. And my memory may be hazy, but I don't think Dave ever played the Diana Ross tune. He probably considered it too obvious, but I was always surprised the Carl Bean was not on his radar.

Very interesting -- someone just this week posted the "original" original version of "I Was Born This Way" on YT: a guy who called himself Valentino did the first version in 1975, and it's more '70s Soul/Beach Music sounding than the discofied Carl Bean take we've all heard. Rather nice, IMHO:
