  1. Crying like a baaaaaby my god that was gorgeous. Gonna pull an all nightwear and write and draw. It's the only way.
  2. I love it already! This is what a broken heart feels like. The hope and the dreams that never fail to exist even in the most miserable of times, whether personal or not-so-personal. Please promise me to never stop writing ever and to have a follow up as soon as I've finished reading (which is approximately 14 minutes from now).
  3. Hope it has Elle Me Dit in English as well... That version is hilarious XD
  4. No problem. I don't have the money to go or the job to make money, but I can't staaaaaand my memory failing on me haha. I haven't forgotten to ask anything tho, have I?
  5. Ok I've send an email to the G-A-Y person who handles this asking about: How, when and where to get tickets What kind of a night it is (club night or gig...-gig-night) Age restrictions
  6. You lucky... Ok imma keep it clean but yeah baby! If she can't make it you can tryyyy and convince me if you like haha.
  7. I am going to email the bar and see what they say. I've checked the new posters, but on them it says to get the wristbands at the bar, but not when to get them or where these gigs are. It's strange I'll post here ASAP.
  8. That's brilliant. Yeah age restrictions is usually 18+ and as this appears to be a kinda regular club night I'd say it will be that night as well
  9. I know it's a serious conversation, but seeing you two misunderstanding each other constantly is actually pretty funny anyhow, there is a difference between being bisexual and realizing there will always be a chance than you could one day be attracted to a person of the same sex. You know, like: a girl is born with the fate of falling in love exactly 100 times, 99 times with a guy, once with a girl. I suppose the label she chooses just depends on when she falls in love with the girl. True, technically the girl will be always be bisexual, but she can't know she is so until she does fall in love with the girl. Until that time, she has two options: labelling herself as straight (full stop) OR labeling herself straight wile realizing she can't know what the future has in store for her, thus accepting its fluidity beforehand. (yeah ok third option: labeling herself as a lesbian, then bi, perhaps later on straight BUT NOT MY POINT LOL) I think both options are valid, but if you don't make the distinction it could come across as terribly homophobic.And I hope it makes sense :S
  10. I know for sure you can get tickets (or wristbands, I believe) in advance at probably all the other gay venues, check my earlier post
  11. Is it just me or was the question too silly to be answered seriously anyway?
  12. You say that him dedicating TOOL at Heaven was his first coming out, I completely agree. And honestly, I have never ever seen him more nervous, or that nervous, actually. It doesn't come off in the videos (the ones I've seen anyway) at all, but it was so obvious at the moment. That alone makes me believe that it was not a mere promotional tool. Ofcourse it was planned, how could it not be? In a lot of the articles quoting the American article was a reference to him dedicating the song the "the man he loves" as well, by the way! It may not have reached the whole wide world after the gig, but it definitely was the start of a new era.
  13. I thought he mentioned that there was going to be English & French album versions as well... But let's hope for acoustic versions TOO hehe.
  14. I get both your points and honestly, I can't say of either of you that you're wrong, or Absolutely right, for that matter. I do think that when you are 100% convinced you are straight and don't even think about the possibility of fancying a person of the same sex, you may just not realise you fancy that person. I mean, when I was about 15 yo, I had this boyfriend. He told me that people may assume I'm gay, but that doesnt actually make me gay. He then continued with the words that basically changed my life: But I'm only going to believe you when you say you're straight when you're 86 years old and lying on your death bed. He was so f'ing right. Couldn't help cursing the boy 2 years later. It was just a tiiiiiny crush on a waitress, but for some reason that was the start of a whole new life and I believe with all my heart that I might not have noticed, even, if I hadn't believed it was going to happen one day to begin with.
  15. G-A-Y is a kind of brand. You've got the one on old Compton street (a.k.a gay street) which is the G-A-Y bar one (a.k.a my home-away-from-home haha), then G-A-Y late near Tottenham Court Road which Is opened late, then one in Manchester, and one nicknamed Heaven. And honestly, When I was in London for Mika's Heaven gig I went to the G-A-Y bar, and couldn't find a gay girl to save my life, so I definitely wouldn't worry about going. Do believe Heaven is supposed to be more for the guy-gays. Edit: I believe you can get (free) wristbands for these gigs in advance in the other bars... Always says so on the promotional posters anyway.
  16. Bij mij deed ideal het ook niet... Maar kreeg uiteindelijk wel een bevestiging, dus bij mij is het toch in orde.
  17. Meant just that actually. Not mini steps like decreasing the amount of jail time from 20 to 19 years but decriminalising it altogether ASAP.
  18. Does anybody know how they are going to check the two tickets pp rule? Because I need to buy them for me, a friend who's broke, my mother and a family of four who are on their holiday... :S
  19. Without making any judgement or rushing to any conclusions, I don't think there is such a thing as a non-homophobic country. I mean, I live in what is supposed to be the least homophobic country in the world and the first to legalize gay marriage (or you know, marriage), and I work & study in the most liberal city in that country, but even here there is homophobia everywhere.
  20. Hmmm... I guess we have landed here at the old "label" discussion... I think what you said about George's lover is probably right, but it completely depends on how you define aaall these labels, as you more or less pointed out already. I used to ask people what their definitions for me being straight/bi/gay would be, and then base my answer on theirs. Not the quickest method but it works and makes people think. Anyway, I think the main question should be if you count "just" attraction as being part of your sexuality, or to define it by who you fall in love with. It sounds silly to even think about that, but I find it is actually really effective. I'm just guessing here obviously, but George may have been attracted to men and women, but have fallen in love with this Brazilian guy, thus learning from him that ultimately, he is gay. Bottom line: I hate labels lol.
  21. I think she means it the other way around... You know teens (or children even) who feel pressured by their community to be straight, while they may feel that that's just not... them. Besides, who does that, even? Apart from me that is. XD Edit: Just realized now that, even though I suppose it's less common, people do have a universal tendency to create quaint little categories and while for some the only acceptable category may be straight, for others there may be straight & gay but no category for everything in between, which I believe cannot really be considered a category to begin with. So yes, there actually would be cases in which a bisexual child is pressured to be gay. Can't believe I just forgot about my own bloody situation haha. Must be progress me thinks, cough cough.
