BEST GAY BANDS

[erikua]

Not even Vince Clarke, amazingly.

Speaking of, I've seen both Erasure and Pet Shop Boys over the last couple years. Erasure was more fun, but a PSB concert feels like an event. They are also the superior songwriters. Gotta go PSB.

Vince Clark was only around for the 1st year and split after that. I still wonder why people consider DM a "gay" band - ok sure Mart was into the leather at one time but that was 20 years ago. He grew out of that phase in the late 80s - I don't know how you can call anything from the 90's on up "gay" from Depeche Mode.

Btw - never seen Erasure before but I will agree - Pet Shop Boys in 2006 was a spectacle to the umpteeth degree. I've never seen anything like that before or since.

Have I mentioned how much I have a passionate hate for the Scissor Sisters?

Have I mentioned how much I have a passionate hate for the Scissor Sisters?

Is it because of the horrible things they did to the Pink Floyd song?

Six words

"Don't Say No...Boys Say Go!"

I just always assumed Vince was the gay influence on the first album. Actually, I'm sure he was, but he's married with a kid now. Normally, that wouldn't mean anything, but c'mon...he's half of one of the "gayest" bands on earth...why would he want a "beard"? If anything, it would hurt his career.

I would like to point out that Tessa and the D'urbervilles is FUCKING BRILLIANT, YOU ILLITERATE PHILISTINE COCKSUCKERS. YOU WOULDN'T KNOW A GREAT LITERARY PUN IF IT JUMPED UP AND BIT YOU.

I enjoyed it. Settle down.

[Deviate_420]

Arcade Fire, for sure...

This is fucking stupid everyone knows that Erasure is THE gay band and ya, why the fuck isn't Soft Cell on here. And who the fuck is gay in Depeche Mode? Get them off there. They spawned all the gay off into Erasure.

[amyzzz]

I'm sure someone was gay/bi in Depeche Mode at some point. I don't think any of them continued gay. They've all had wives/steady gf's the past 15 years.

Erasure is one of my favorite bands ever (second to Frank Zappa & The Mothers of Invention) and yeah, I always found it perplexing that Vince is straight. His time in Depeche Mode produced "Boys Say Go" and "Hey, you're such a pretty boy." Then formed Yaz as well. I guess Vince is just a *** hag?

I submit Sin With Sebastian. This twelve inch even comes on pink vinyl.

[Cancersticks1]

Oh also, did anyone mention Antony?

[J~$$$]

hands down best gay song ever.

What are you talking about Vince and Andy are not only both openly gay, they're openly gay together! Dude have you never seen Erasure?




Hell I can't even find the good pictures right now. They love to play concerts wearing angel wings and womens underwear.

[bballarl]

I repeat. Husker Du.

[Cancersticks1]

Yes I have seen Erasure several times. Yes it's a very flamboyant show. But no, Vince isn't gay. Andy is very openly gay, but Vince is straight.

uh, hum. whatever you say. just sayin....

[Bud Luster]

don't forget Judas Priest & Bloc Party & Village People

JUDAS FUCKING PRIEST!!!

The Smiths are NOT a gay band. Morrissey is asexual. Also, the best gay band was not included in the list and it was Kittchens of Distinction. I heard Dani saw them in concert once. I am also surprised REM was not included. Michael Stipe is openly gay, pissing off the likes of Duncan Hunter and Mike Huckabee.

[gaypalmsprings]

Morrissey hangs out at the WeHo gay bars. Asexual?

[thelastgreatman]

... did dude seriously just claim ERASURE ISN'T GAY?

... is dude for real?

... does dude realize he's gay?

[kroqken]

The only bar I know of Morrissey hanging out at was Club Underground at the Tempest earlier this year, and that is not a gay bar.

[gaypalmsprings]

The Abbey

[thelastgreatman]

Gaypalm, tell Ken how you gaypalmed Morrissey behind that In N Out Burger that time. Go on--tell him.

[xbnmx]

ya, these two made a career out of each other, but they don't fuck.

[amyzzz]

I saw Kitchens of Distinction live once too. They opened for Suzanne Vega. I actually interviewed them using questions my friend came up with (she was a huge KoD fan). Early 90's.

[kroqken]

Why won't Morrissey come out as gay or publically proclaim his homosexuality? Until I here it from him, all rumors will be discounted by me.

[kroqken]

Kittchens of Distinction are godhead!

[gaypalmsprings]

So Michael Jackson & Ricky Martin are straight?

[bballarl]

I was having dinner with the grandparents of my next-door neighbors from back home last week and we were having a similar discussion. They were saying how they found out Rock Hudson was gay because he was living with 2 other famous Hollywood types and would sunbathe in skimpy bathing suits on the balcony of their NYC apartment (that they overlooked).

Random story.

[kroqken]

Michael Jackson is a sick and demented individual, no matter how many times Corey Feldman defends him in interviews.

[kroqken]

I heard Natalie Wood drowned because she caught her husband Robert Wagner in bed with Christopher Walken. That is a better rumor than the Richard Gere gerbil story.
