Bryan, Pollo, GlamaZONE, and Wendy Ho

It's MacWorld season again, which brings back to SF former resident and always good friend Bryan R.! Yay for Bryan time! He left a snowy and -8 degree Boston at 5:00 a.m. to arrive SFO just past noon, and in time lunch on a cloudless, sunny day with temps hitting the 70s. A perfect day for a walk around his old stomping grounds, followed by an evening of haunting old cruising grounds bar haunts in the Castro.

.
We very much enjoyed the 80s block at the Badlands, and by 9:30 we were up for one last drink at the Café to catch Pollo's show at the GlamaZONE. And boy were we glad we did. No only did Pollo rock the show again, this time in a frightfully short dress—frightening as we feared her candy might pop out at any minute, but her emmcee/stand-up skills are getting better and better. The Grrl is hilarious now that she has a mic that consistently works.

.
A newcomer to the stage did a drag performance to one of our favorite songs by honorary drag queen and tongue-in-cheek hip hop performer Wendy Ho—who just happened to be in the audience, happened to have a CD in her purse (all good queen do) and gave the crowd an impromptu live performance of her new song "Oprah Winfrey."
