Burning Man Festival goes gay

A gay roundup of this year's desert head trip

09.19.2011

Have you ever wanted to go into the desert and have a drug-fuelled artsy freak-out with hundreds of other people? Well, that's what the legendary Burning Man Festival is all about. Curious about what the festival is like for homos who attend? Videographer Vincent Rommelaere and his buddies — or rather his "Glam Cocks," Zac Rich and Tim Duggan — have put together a long-form video road trip on the festival that is... well, crazy fun.

      Exploring The Sexy Side of “Local” U.S. Red Wines With Rock Star Maynard James Keenan
      “Grenache is a panty dropper,” says hard rock icon Maynard James Keenan, front man of three-time Grammy winners Tool and critical darlings Puscifer and A Perfect Circle. “The Grenache coming out of A.Z. will drop panties in an hour.”Most people are familiar with Keenan as a bona fide rock star, but fewer know him in the capacity that he will tell you constitutes his “day job” — winemaker for Arizona-based Caduceus Cellars. In 2010, the normally reticent Keenan thrust himself into the limelight as a flag-bearer for Arizona wine with the film Blood Into Wine, which chronicled his founding of Caduceus and established him as one of the figureheads of the U.S. “local wine” movement (a bootstrapped campaign that champions wines made anywhere outside the areas that currently dominate store shelves: namely California, Oregon and Washington state). I caught up with Maynard during a break in his winemaking activities (and whatever else it is that rock stars do when they’re not fending off hordes of gorgeous groupies) to talk about the state of the local U.S. wine movement.And while you might not be thinking of grabbing, say, a Midwestern red wine to woo your Midwestern girl, I got a firsthand lesson in how sexy local reds can be when I attended the 2012 Drink Local Wine Conference in Denver earlier this year. Colorado has shown promise in the reds coming out of its Western Slopes (particularly The Winery at Holy Cross Abbey’s dark and velvety Cabernet Franc, Garfield Estates’ drink-me-now Syrah and Canyon Wind’s IV, a $100 Bordeaux-style red blend that actually tastes like a $100 wine). And areas like Virginia are starting to see success with ripe and fruity reds, such as Blenheim Vineyards’ Cabernet Sauvignon (owned by another successful rocker, Dave Matthews). As for Maynard’s home turf of Arizona,

      Black Panther Escape: The Big Cigar
      INT. A HOUSE IN THE HOLLYWOOD HILLS—NIGHTIt’s quiet at this long, low ranch house up in Benedict Canyon even though it’s Saturday night. The year is 1974, and the decor reflects the era’s aesthetic: zebra rug, mod wallpaper and suede sofas facing a mirrored bar. This is a modern bachelor pad, a hilltop roost with a pool, sauna and stunning view of Los Angeles. In the bedroom, a partially clothed BERT SCHNEIDER smokes a joint with a lithe teenage girl. Bert is tall, handsome and self-assured, a Hollywood producer on top of the world. He hears a knock and looks up to see his teenage son, JEFFREY, fling the door open.?“There are two black ladies outside,” Jeffrey said. “And one of them is very pushy.” Bert put on a shirt and headed for the entry. There he found the two women, but on closer examination he realized the pushy one was not a woman at all but a man, bewigged and squeezed into a dress. Bert smiled and asked, “Huey?”The man in drag was Huey Newton, the 32-year-old leader of the Black Panther Party. Huey was a major cultural figure, a street- and book-smart kid from Oakland who had become an icon of the black power movement. His public displays of firearms, meant to protect the black community from overzealous police, had brimmed over into shoot-outs, including his own deadly encounter with Oakland police officer John Frey, for which Huey was convicted in 1968 of voluntary manslaughter. (He claimed he was unconscious during the shooting, and his conviction was overturned in 1970.) Now Huey told Bert he was in trouble again. “Bert,” Huey said, “you gotta help us.”Bert and Huey had been tight for a few years, ever since Bert started raising money for the Panthers in Hollywood. Bert was a macher, as he would say, a producer at the vanguard of the New Hollywood movement that had changed American cinema; his credits included Easy Rider, Five Easy Pieces and The Last Picture Show, and he was working on Hearts and Minds, the Viet

      Femme on Fire: Singer & Songwriter Charli XCX
      You may know her as the pop singer who wrote the song thatopens your girlfriend’s beloved reality TV show Snooki & JWOWW,which has earwormed into your brain, or maybe you don’t know her at all. Inspite of everything she’s done up to this point—opening for the likes ofSantigold and Coldplay, a feat that some artists never achieve in their entirecareers; releasing widely acclaimed mixtapes online; and becoming a fashionicon—she has just released her debut album True Romance on indie labelIamsound. We called Charli up last week to see how she was riding the wave ofpopularity while she signed 500 copies of her album in her bedroom.Playboy.com: So the entire internet threw a fit over your ’90s-inspired music video for yourlatest single “What I Like,” released two weeks ago. Please tell me you got tohave some actual fun while filming it.Charli XCX: Oh yeah, totally! The whole thing was basically decided after we wanted to go and rent a room in a hotel. It was really all last minute because we had been at SXSW not really doing much work but talking and playing shows and stuff. So Ryan Andrews, the guy who directs my videos, realized when we got back, “Shit,we gotta shoot this video, what are we going to do?” So it all just happenedquickly. We just said fuck it, let’s just rent a hotel and have a party. That’sbasically what we did. We had to sneak the dog in and ordered a bunch of pizzaand got drunk. It was really cute. Playboy.com: SXSW looked like it was pretty crazy for you this year. What was this experience like as opposed to the year before? Charli XCX: Completely different. The year before I only played two shows where this year I played ten. When I played the year before I was very much unknown, I just had a couple of songs online, whereas this year I felt like I had been working quite hardputting out mixtapes and that kind of thing. It’s crazy seeing people singingalong to my songs!Playboy.com: How many tacos did you

Going staying upwards till the earlier hrs searching on teletext for that report to be able to up-date, (lots of the old British National football league enthusiasts will certainly remember this!) There have been no high-speed internet or satellite television in the UK in the past which had been the only way to keep up thus far along with scores. 36-24 to the Vikings had been the ultimate report, I was completely heartbroken. I'm pleased to say issues obtained a lot better for me like a 49ers lover; annually later on they won my first Super Pan success in the last seconds on the Bengals, a game title I missed a day away school for as We went to mattress from 3am pursuing their own triumph.
