SUMMARY:2026 Pride Movie & Music Series - Slumber Party Massacre & Naga Brujo
DESCRIPTION:The Bloody Rose Boutique Pride Movie & Music Series returns! We are back on North Loop at Barrett’s Too (formerly Double Trouble) with one film and one punk band and vendors every Wednesday night in June! \n_Films_June 3 – Times SquareJune 10 – Psycho Beach PartyJune 17 – Slumber Party MassacreJune 24 – Elvira Mistress of the Dark \n_Bands_June 3 – Maiden Mother CroneJune 10 – TEMPTRIXJune 17 – Naga BrujoJune 24 – Dednamez \n_Vendors_Bloody Rose Boutique – dark things for dark peopleQueeriosities – Original handcrafted t-shirts\, hats\, stickers + more.Sara Froelich – VHS and more \n_Location_Barrett’s Too103 N Loop Blvd E\, Austin\, TX 78751 \nALL AGESFREE ADMISSION \n************************************* \n__Times Square__ \nIn his 1999 monograph Times Square Red\, Times Square Blue\, Samuel R. Delany describes the cross-class sexual and social contact that made Times Square central to his and other gay men’s lives. The civic and commercial redevelopment projects targeting the neighborhood meant\, he argues\, “major demolition\, destruction\, and devastation in what had established itself not only in the American psyche\, but in the international imagination\, as one of the world’s most famous urban areas.” – Screen Slate \n__Psycho Beach Party__Originally a 1987 stage play by Charles Busch\, a drag performer and PBP screenwriter\, Psycho Beach Party is the quintessentially queer horror comedy satire and parody of the early-2000s\, and we don’t talk about it enough. This could be due to the popularity of another horror comedy parody of the same year: Scary Movie (2000). However\, while Scary Movie has queer characters\, they are marred by extremely pervasive stereotypes that have persisted in film\, especially horror\, for decades. Psycho Beach Party\, on the other hand\, has more to offer horror queers than Scary Movie. It was created by a queer individual and satirizes 1950s/1960s conservatism and family values. This campy summer flick that draws from films like Psycho (1960) and Surf Party (1964) deserves more recognition for its creativity and proud queerness. – Horror Press \n__Slumber Party Massacre__Amy Holden Jones’ Slumber Party Massacre (1982) is like a queer-coded haunted house\, with jumpscares and gags around every corner.  \nIn many ways\, this fast-paced 80s slasher doesn’t seem to deviate from the tropes and stereotypes prevalent in the genre at the time. Trish (Michele Michaels) and her group of friends throw a slumber party while her parents are out of town\, but of course\, a murderer is on the loose. Girls stay home alone for the first time\, break their parent’s rules\, and get punished for their moral delinquencies by a blindly murderous man with a drill. However\, once you consider that it was directed\, produced and written by women (the screenwriter is queer feminist author Rita Mae Brown)\, you start to see the movie through a queer lens. Also\, once you learn that it was originally written to be a parody but later changed to be a straight-up slasher\, you can see the elements of comedy and self-awareness. The inclusion of subtle queer subtext subverts these overplayed tropes and adds a layer of camp over the film. Plus\, it’s always fun to play ‘find the queer subtext’\, sometimes even inserting a bit of your own.  -Queer Fear Film Festival \n__Elvira Mistress of the Dark__Elvira: Mistress of the Dark\, is an utter delight\, the perfect Halloween film. The premise concerns a local-TV horror host who longs to parlay her talents into a Vegas showgirl career (which is Peterson’s career trajectory\, only in reverse). In an effort to scrape together the money for her show\, she lands in the tiny conservative town of Falwell\, Massachusetts\, where her mysterious recently departed aunt may have left behind the resources Elvira needs. The story vibrates with queerness — not explicitly\, but so plainly in the subtext I don’t know how heterosexuals can even make sense of what they’re seeing. There’s name of the town\, of course (a reference to the anti-gay preacher Jerry Falwell)\, and then there are the villains of the piece\, a self-appointed club of moral crusaders who consider Elvira to be a poor influence on the local kids due to her sexuality\, and they want to expel her by any means necessary. What queer person can’t identify with that? – The Stranger \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/1267389938901689/

SUMMARY:THE APPLICATORS In-Store Performance & Record Signing
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating the 20th anniversary of the album\, My Weapon\, The Applicators – one of Austin’s pioneering all-female punk band formed in 1999 – is planning a record release show first in Austin\, then a Texas-wide tour followed by a West Coast mini tour in 2026. An added monumental reason to commemorate this release is the finalization of the band’s long\, sustained efforts to obtain full ownership of the rights of their music. Originally partly produced and recorded by Cliff Jones in London\, UK\, then completed in 2006 back in Austin through Frenchie Smith. \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/995275019556982/

Delany describes the cross-class sexual and social contact that made Times Square central to his and other gay men’s lives. The civic and commercial redevelopment projects targeting the neighborhood meant\, he argues\, “major demolition\, destruction\, and devastation in what had established itself not only in the American psyche\, but in the international imagination\, as one of the world’s most famous urban areas.” – Screen Slate \n__Psycho Beach Party__Originally a 1987 stage play by Charles Busch\, a drag performer and PBP screenwriter\, Psycho Beach Party is the quintessentially queer horror comedy satire and parody of the early-2000s\, and we don’t talk about it enough. This could be due to the popularity of another horror comedy parody of the same year: Scary Movie (2000). However\, while Scary Movie has queer characters\, they are marred by extremely pervasive stereotypes that have persisted in film\, especially horror\, for decades. Psycho Beach Party\, on the other hand\, has more to offer horror queers than Scary Movie. It was created by a queer individual and satirizes 1950s/1960s conservatism and family values. This campy summer flick that draws from films like Psycho (1960) and Surf Party (1964) deserves more recognition for its creativity and proud queerness. – Horror Press \n__Slumber Party Massacre__Amy Holden Jones’ Slumber Party Massacre (1982) is like a queer-coded haunted house\, with jumpscares and gags around every corner.  \nIn many ways\, this fast-paced 80s slasher doesn’t seem to deviate from the tropes and stereotypes prevalent in the genre at the time. Trish (Michele Michaels) and her group of friends throw a slumber party while her parents are out of town\, but of course\, a murderer is on the loose. Girls stay home alone for the first time\, break their parent’s rules\, and get punished for their moral delinquencies by a blindly murderous man with a drill. However\, once you consider that it was directed\, produced and written by women (the screenwriter is queer feminist author Rita Mae Brown)\, you start to see the movie through a queer lens. Also\, once you learn that it was originally written to be a parody but later changed to be a straight-up slasher\, you can see the elements of comedy and self-awareness. The inclusion of subtle queer subtext subverts these overplayed tropes and adds a layer of camp over the film. Plus\, it’s always fun to play ‘find the queer subtext’\, sometimes even inserting a bit of your own.  -Queer Fear Film Festival \n__Elvira Mistress of the Dark__Elvira: Mistress of the Dark\, is an utter delight\, the perfect Halloween film. The premise concerns a local-TV horror host who longs to parlay her talents into a Vegas showgirl career (which is Peterson’s career trajectory\, only in reverse). In an effort to scrape together the money for her show\, she lands in the tiny conservative town of Falwell\, Massachusetts\, where her mysterious recently departed aunt may have left behind the resources Elvira needs. The story vibrates with queerness — not explicitly\, but so plainly in the subtext I don’t know how heterosexuals can even make sense of what they’re seeing. There’s name of the town\, of course (a reference to the anti-gay preacher Jerry Falwell)\, and then there are the villains of the piece\, a self-appointed club of moral crusaders who consider Elvira to be a poor influence on the local kids due to her sexuality\, and they want to expel her by any means necessary. What queer person can’t identify with that? – The Stranger \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/2378782815967166/

SUMMARY:Corrosion of Conformity w/ Whores and Crobot
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, July 8The Far Out LoungeDoors at 6:30pm \nTickets on sale Friday\, March 27 at 10 AM! \nCorrosion of Conformity are reuniting with guitarist/vocalist Pepper Keenan for UK/European and North American dates. Other than a few surprise appearances\, this will be the first time Keenan has toured with the band since 2006. This will also be the first time the “Deliverance” lineup of the group has played together since 2001. \nC.O.C. recently emerged from hibernation as a trio and released 2012’s eponymous album and 2014’s “IX” to wide acclaim\, but many have been eagerly awaiting the return of Pepper Keenan. \nThe band were originally an influential hardcore punk/heavy metal crossover act before reaching critical success with a new lineup on 1991’s “Blind” album. That trajectory continued with wider appeal as Keenan took over as primary vocalist on “Deliverance” (1994) and “Wiseblood” (1996). \nThese two recordings in particular fused the raw energy of the previous albums with some great strides forward in classic rock inspired songwriting and more spacious production and execution\, which were often copied but rarely equalled. \nThis juggernaut gained mass and momentum with relentless touring alongside Metallica\, Clutch\, Eyehategod and many more. \nEventually following “In the Arms of God”\, 2005\, Keenan focused all energy on his hometown band Down. \nUntil now\, that is. \nRecent internet chatter on the subject of a reunion turns out be true. \n* * * \nPLEASE NOTE: Parking is limited\, and rideshares are encouraged!  \nThe Far Out Lounge is located at 8504 South Congress. \nhttp://www.thefaroutaustin.com/ \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/889184827414773/
