Last night went to Freeman, my favorite gay club here. They have an ever changing show 7 nights a week and every number is a group number. There's always a crowd. There's nothing like it at home.

They do a lot of black girl numbers. Last night there was a "Shirley Bassey) and a "Diana Ross". They also do some numbers is severe fashion looks. One girl wcame out in black lipstick and and a sexy/gothy exaggerated black ruffly collar and did an Amanda Lear song. The backup girls were modelish trannies with these gorgeous jeweled masks that covered one eye. There was also a dead serious boy number. A handsome guy in a slick suit, with expert smoke machine and lighting effects, did "You're my Inspiration." Not my sort of music, but he did it with such sincerity that it was gorgeous. Drag is never lazy here, not even boy drag.
The hostess is a nutty queen named Dae. She's not what you'd call a traditional beauty, but she's genius. I always call her the Thai "Carol Burnett". She usually does a Thai number in a weird outfit. I couldn't understand it, but I could tell that it was campy. She's very "Pyramid 1987." Then she does a funny monologue, intereacting with the audience. Then everyone hits the dark room.
I've heard that Dae has become a regular on a Thai soap opera.
