The ULTIMATE Guide to Partying FREE or CHEAP with BoiParty

This post has actually been a long time coming.

I am the co-director and lead promoter of a little ten-year-old massively successful gay nightlife company called BoiParty.com.

With my partner, the spectacular and brilliant Alan Picus, we throw three weekly events at New York City's hottest clubs. We also get involved with major national and international events.

This past week I spent some time hanging out with the cashiers at all three of our parties (TWINK! Tuesdays at Splash, Campus Thursdays at Splash and Heaven Saturdays at Club Heaven) and discovered something astonishing: people were paying the full cover to get in to our events.

I'm sorry... WHAT? It's very hard for me to believe. This is because one of the things I scream the loudest every day is that you can get in CHEAP or FREE to all of our events.

I guess some things get lost in the shuffle of all the tri-state's screaming promoters. Well, hopefully no longer. Here's the simple point, boys: We don't WANT to charge you cover.

Ferrealzies! Every week Alan and I jump through about forty different hoops to help get y'all in FREE to our parties. Go ahead and read this, and I will help save you over a THOUSAND dollars by the time next year is out.

Think of how many cute outfits you can buy with that money!


FREE PARTY TRICK NUMBER 1: TEXT MESSAGES
Every week BoiParty.com sends 2-3 text messages. Sure they may be cluttered and tough to read at times, but give them a quick scan! You will find that those texts qualify you for FREE entry to Campus Thursdays every week. Same for TWINK! Tuesdays.

Yes, they ask you to get there by a certain time, but that's the ONLY catch! Arrive before 11, or 12, or 1, or WHATEVER time the texts say, and you get to skip the $10 or $15 cover!

Are you subscribed to our weekly text deals?
Head over to BoiParty.com and click "Get Texted" on the top.
OR sign up with one of our cute iPad boys at any of our events.

FREE PARTY TRICK NUMBER 2: STUDENT IDs on TWINK! Tuesdays
This secret is for the super-broke (and super-cute) college boy crowd. Every Tuesday night at Splash we let in the 18+ crowd. And if you get to the club BEFORE 11 and show the doorman your student ID, you get in free! It's THAT easy!


FREE PARTY TRICK NUMBER 3: JUST SAY "I'M A GG20"
Another little secret for Campus Thursdays at Splash is that you don't need a text! You can just walk up to the doorman outside of the club and tell him "I'm a GG20". This code word gets you in free TIL 1 AM! It's the longest-lasting free offer you can get. Take advantage of it!

FREE PARTY TRICK NUMBER 4: GET THE BOIPARTY EMAILS!
BoiParty.com doesn't just send text messages. Every week we also send eBlasts with digital promos for all of the week's events. Again - PAY ATTENTION TO THEM. On every promo are instructions on how you can get in free... and they change every week!

You can simply show the email on your phone to the cashier for free entry, or you can print the email, or you can print the Facebook invite. Sometimes you can get in free just by showing your GRINDR or HORNET app. All this info is written in the emails, and will save you money!

Wanna sign up for our free weekly emails? 
Just head over to BoiParty.com and click on "Join Email List" on the top of the site!
OR sign up with one of our cute iPad boys at any of our events.

FREE PARTY TRICK NUMBER 5: ASK A PROMOTER FOR A COMP!
This works especially well for our super-popular Saturday party at Heaven. BoiParty.com gives ALL of its promoters a set number of COMP ENTRIES a week. This is the BIGGEST money-saver of them all, since Heaven Saturdays charge between $15 and $60 at the door depending on the night.

If you want a shot at getting a FREE entry to the party, hit up a promoter! Now, a warning: like I said, these are LIMITED comps. So the earlier you hit us up, the better your chances. ALSO: if you ask for a comp, and then don't show up, you may have a harder time getting a comp another weekend... so if you're gonna show... be sure to show!

Below is a cheat sheet of ALL the BoiParty promoters. Add them as friends, they are SUPER friendly!

FREE PARTY TRICK NUMBER 6: THROW YOUR OWN PARTY!
We LOVE when a cute boy brings a crowd (of likewise cute boys). So plan to throw your birthday party, goodbye party, welcome home party, loss of virginity party, or what-the-fuck-let's-have-a-party-for-the-hell-of-it party with us!

Become a fan of BOIPARTY EVENT PLANNING and drop us a line. Depending on the size of your group, you will most likely net yourself a bunch of comps, steep discounts for others in your party, and maybe even some drink tickets and shout-outs! (Think of how cool that'll make YOU look).

Ta-da! There you have it, boys. Six ways you can pay nothing (or very little) EVERY WEEK for BoiParty.com events. Bookmark this page if you drink too much to remember everything I've written. Or print it up and hang it in your cubicle, bedroom, or car.

Like I said: we don't want to charge you cover - we just use that for the tourists and people who don't listen to what we say when we tell them all the ways to avoid it. You should NEVER, EVER have to pay a full cover at a BoiParty event. EVER.

Now you know. Be sure to spread the word. Can't wait to party with you. (And I'm TOTALLY hitting you up for a drink, since I know you'll have all this extra cash.)

Hot Gay Textual Relations: A +1 Guest Post

The following guest post is penned by my friend (and Montclair State student), the gorgeous, wavy haired author extraordinaire, Dave Osmundsen.

The usual format for a list like this is “Top Five” or “Top Ten”, but organizational skills aren’t my forte. So, what follows is a list of gay romances that I personally find powerful, interesting, or just plain hot, in no particular order.


Nathan and Roy from Dream Boy: Dream Boy is a bleak, but beautifully written (and very underrated) story. Nathan, a boy with a troubled past, moves to a rural new town where he develops the hots for Roy, his next door neighbor. After a series of homework sessions, the two boys find themselves falling in love (or lust, it’s debatable) with one another. Nathan finds an escape from his tumultuous home life with Roy, and Roy finds in Nathan a world he’s never known before (One, two, three: AWWWW!!!)

Before tragedy strikes (I won’t spoil it for those who haven’t read the book/seen the movie), the encounters they have together are HOT. They manage to make a graveyard, a school bus AND a possibly haunted house hot spots for a quickie. Even if Roy’s ends their episodes with the biggest boner shrinker of all time (“I’m not your boyfriend… I have a girlfriend”), they’re nevertheless tastefully and sexily rendered.
   

Jack Twist and Ennis Delmar from Brokeback Mountain: I always say that if Edna Ferber (author of Giant and Show Boat) wrote for the gay crowd, this would be the result. This story is probably the most mainstream (and best) gay film in recent years. Its accolades are well deserved, and its cinematography, acting and screenplay are admirable. For the four of you who don’t know the story, Jack and Ennis are two ranch hands who are sent up to Brokeback Mountain one summer to herd a flock of sheep. Naturally, they find themselves herding OTHER things, and wind up falling in love with one another.

Over the next twenty years, they get married, have kids, and have random encounters with one another until, OF COURSE, tragedy strikes. Their first encounter in the tent about half an hour into the movie is as hot as it gets. OK, the kiss in front of Ennis’ house is pretty hot too. But aside from being a good love story, Brokeback Mountain is a commentary on society’s narrow definition of what a Man is. Like Dream Boy, the story is bleak, but the experience is epic and unforgettable.


Ned Weeks and Felix Turner from The Normal Heart: Say what you will about Larry Kramer (he is pompous, he needs to shut up, he doesn’t know when to stop, Faggots had too many characters, etc.), but the recent Broadway production of his play The Normal Heart was a powerful experience that left audiences in stunned silence. After hearing about a mysterious virus, journalist Ned Weeks starts a campaign to prevent it. He meets Felix Turner, who becomes his lover, and proudly joins him in the fight against said disease. But when Felix contracts it, Ned continues fighting it with an even stronger resolve.

What makes their story so powerful is that Ned doesn’t even think of leaving Felix: He remains beside him, fighting what is perhaps a losing battle for him. True, the anti-silence message overtakes the love story, but the relationship between Ned and Felix plays a prodigious part in the proceedings. Even when tragedy strikes (frickin’ AGAIN), Ned vows to continue fighting the disease for every gay man out there.  Now that’s devotion.


Aaron and Christian from Latter Days: The movie Latter Days can be experienced as either one of two things: A thrilling emotional journey that covers the gamut from mirth to depression, or as a silly, shallow and oft-done love story. When I saw it, I found the romance of dedicated Mormon boy Aaron and party boy Christian (points for irony…) to be the former. What I like about this film is how it correlates with the character’s journeys: When it starts, the tone is very shallow, reflecting Christian’s superficiality. His attempts to seduce Aaron, although amusing, come across as self fulfilling and self indulgent. But when his efforts evoke a confession from Aaron (that he is a virgin and doesn’t want his first time to be a random hookup), Christian is forced to rethink his entire outlook on life.

Meanwhile, Aaron is forced to confront his feelings for Christian and his dedication to Jesus head on. Eventually, the two men get together, but not without more obstacles (and possible tragedy) facing them. How Aaron and Christian cope with these obstacles gives the film its emotional depth. For me, this is one of the few films that transcend whatever technical and stylistic flaws it may have in lieu of the power and beauty of the story. And oh yeah, there’s a hot scene in a hotel room. Bam.


Nathan Bishop and Tommy Bishop from The Brothers Bishop: I’m going to outright say it: These two are brothers, and they have sex. In their younger days, they experimented with one another in order to escape their less than ideal home life (yes, their father is an alcoholic). It’s  perfectly reasonable to feel disgust when describing their encounters as comforting, but when reading it, the warmth and safety the brothers feel as they handle each other in hard times (ha ha) is palpable.

The novel doesn’t focus on their love story (apologies to those who are into gaycest), but rather focuses on their relationship about twenty years later, when the promiscuous Tommy, along with a dysfunctional heterosexual couple, visits Nathan. Add to this mix an attractive student of Nathan’s who may or may not be interested in one (or both) of the brothers. Suffice to say, morals are questioned, young un’s are corrupted, lives are ruined by the end of the novel, and ONCE AGAIN, tragedy strikes. But this novel is far from a downer: Rather, author Bart Yates uplifts the reader with his message about overcoming one’s past and learning to healthily deal with it. Nathan learns how to do this from Tommy, which is more valuable than any romance they could’ve shared.

Annnnnnd that’s it. Feel free to check out some of these stories, and if you have anything to recommend to me, send it my way. I’m always up to reading new things, even if tragedy strikes in them.

Lance Bass Presents... The Gayest Music Video of All Time

Leave it to former N*Sync closet case Lance Bass to create the gayest boy band, and produce the gayest song and music video, OF ALL TIME.

Meet HEART2HEART (yes, that's the proper spelling). They sing about Facebook! And poking and hearts and Facebook official relationships! Vomit! Yak! Gross! Rotting death corpse sandwich!

I can't take these boys. They look 12. Their hair belongs on Pokemon or Naruto or that key-blade wielding guy from Kingdom Hearts. And, thanks to Lance, they are ALL unforgivably gay. No Joey Fatone here! Every boy is pretty in the way that he just might be a closely shorn lesbian, versus a fella.

And the song! At least most boy bands are poppy and catchy. There's nothing in this rhythmic tripe that would come CLOSE to catchy. At least to me.

The video features the gay gay gay boys dancing in a set that looks left over from an old Backstreet video, and sometimes on the playground where they all got beaten up when they were kids. It is interspersed with video footage of upper-class girls on an expensive Mac laptop getting all excited because they LOVE when they are propositioned by obvious closet cases.

Or maybe this is just a sign that I (and, possibly, you) have gotten way too old. Maybe 13 year old girls love this shit! OMG! Is the next song about you sending me a Super Cow on Farmville? I hope the album is called "Our Love's Too Young For LinkedIn"!

Is this good? I don't think so. But, hey, it's gotten over 1.3 million hits on YouTube. Considering how tech-savvy HEART2HEART is, perhaps their next single will just be "Our Last Single Got 1.3 Million Hits On YouTube (Grrl You Betta Embed It On Ur Tumblr)"

You can watch the "Facebook Official" video below, please just vomit somewhere else.

Goatee McGee Says FAGS ARE RUINING HIGH SCHOOLS!

Gay.

I was half hoping that this video was a joke. Maybe MadTV was back on the air? Was this Guy Fieri look-alike a new cast member on Saturday Night Live?

Nope! This is 100% balls-to-the-wall serious. And just as mother-fuck crazy!

If the dramatic End-of-Days music doesn't get you, or the hilarious Public-Sex-Meet-Up-Under-the-Tunnel setting of the candid interviews, then Tyler and Patrick, two obvious mos will.

Also gay.

And while the video is funny and ridiculous, it's also extremely sad. These two beautiful obviously gay (might I add: HOT) boys are now denying their homosexuality and natural selves because Goatee McGee is preying upon them and frothing at the mouth as he describes Jesus bringing blood rain and destroying the world because they like boys and musicals.

SCARY CHILD MOLESTER!

Sad! Stupid! What the fuck!

Gorgeous, Gay, 20-Something, and NAKED!

As you all probably know, I created and run a group called GG20, which stands for Gorgeous, Gay, and Twenty-Something. And that's exactly what it is: a private Facebook group with over 6,200 international members, all who have been vetted and verified as gorgeous, gay, and in their twenties.

It's a very sexy group.

And it's also a very horny group. Needless to say, the posting of shirtless and underwear photos in the group is a regular occurrence. And why not? When you look that good, I fully support you publicly showing off what you either work hard to get, or earned via the blessing of good genes.

Youth and sexiness is fleeting, so make as many permanent records of it as you can!

Anyway, no more chatter from me. The rest of this post will be yummy GG20s showing off their goods. ENJOY!

Where Are the Public Blowjobs? A +1 Guest Post

The following post is penned by Courtney Linson, an online friend of mine, and a very active (and popular) member of my private Facebook group, Gorgeous, Gay and 20-Something (GG20). 

In it, he talks about the breaking of a very important cherry we all have: the New York City gay dance club cherry. EVERYONE has one... some just (sadly) never bother popping it. Courtney did, and tells us all about it.

Give it a read, and drop him a line!

Wow! I get a guest spot on THE Justin Luke’s blog? I don’t know what to say…I mean I had everything I wanted to say all figured out before Justin actually gave me the green light to actually go ahead. Regardless, I want to start by introducing myself. I’m Courtney Linson, I’m 19, live in Pennsylvania, and like most (if not all of you) I’m gay. Fashion is what I love, but writing comes just as naturally, so when I saw the opportunity to write for this blog, I just couldn’t pass it up! So where am I going with this? Let’s see…

Out of all my friends, I’m usually the most outspoken one. I’m the guy that’s loud and obnoxious, making everyone laugh with my overuse of the word “fuck” and my witty banter, but I’m also the guy that cares about his friends as if they were his children. I have this maternal thing going on where I’m like “Call me when you get to *insert destination*” because I’ve dealt with the suicide of a friend and I would never want that to happen to anyone, so I try to show everyone that I care as much as possible each and every day. So when one of my best friend’s came out of the closet, I couldn’t be more ecstatic…then he told me about what he called “the scene”.

From what I had heard, being a part of “the scene” meant drinking heavily, snorting things that definitely didn’t belong up your nose, and giving a sloppy blowjob in the bathroom. I listened to tales of bitchy queen fights and cars being ruined because of one guy getting to close to another’s boyfriend. Being the “Queen Bee Gay” in high school that I was, I felt as though I was getting a complete reality check, and I never really made it a mission to go out to a club or be a part of “the scene” or whatever.

But naturally…I was curious…but I made sure curiosity wouldn’t kill this cat.

Walking into Splash for the first time was definitely an eye opener. The music was pumping, the boys were HOT, and I couldn’t wait to shake it on the dance floor. But wait!

Where were the catfights?

What happened to the boys popping pills?

I ran downstairs to the bathroom and not a single person was on their knees!

Where the hell was I? This definitely wasn’t an episode of Queer As Folk.

The point I’m getting at is that even though I didn’t see all of those things happen my first night (as for the second, third, and fourth night…that’s a different story guys) it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t happen. Since I started going out in New York, I’ve met some of the most amazing people I think I’ll ever meet. Whether you’re the artist, the nipple pincher, the drama queen or just yourself, it doesn’t matter because once the music starts and you’ve had a couple cranberry vodkas, all of that fades away.

I hope that I’ll get to visit New York often, because the more I get to experience, the more I fall in love with this mecca of a city that will never let me sleep.

Hot Singing Naked British Boys? YES PLEASE!

Man, you know what I miss? Boy bands. Seriously! I pine sometimes for the days of Backstreet. For those long hours spent pondering Justin Timberlake's fro'ed up curls. What about 98 degrees?! And all those other boy bands! Man, nothing beats candy bubble gum pop that's so sweet it rots your teeth and destroys your brain, coming out of the pipes of a quartet, quintet, or sextet of button-cute boys.

Well, guess what? THERE'S A NEW BOY BAND COMING TO THE US!

No, I'm not kidding. They're called THE WANTED. And I can honestly say I want 3-4 of them. In my bed. Serenading me. Right this very minute.

Turns out I don't need to wait too long to hear and feast my eyes upon them after all. They're playing the Gramercy Theatre next Tuesday, October 25th! (Buy tickets here)

Their marketing folks contacted me and gave me much in the way of good news which I will (sort of) announce here.

1. I'm getting some FREE TICKETS to give away! Want one? Leave a comment right here.

2. There's a SUPER-SPECIAL SECRET performer who's opening for them! I'm not allowed to say who it is yet, but I promise you... it's big. So you should probably ask for a ticket. Because if the hot brit boys don't get you, their opening act will.

It's one thing to be cute and shirtless, though. What about the music? Can these boys bring big beats? Oh you bet they can. Check out their single, "GLAD YOU CAME" and its music video at the bottom of this post.

(The title sounds so wonderfully filthy, despite all their gallivanting around with girls on some British shore).

Let's be honest, boys. Statistically at least ONE of these guys will be the Lance Bass of the group. And I wanna be there when he discovers he's gladder when a member of the same sex comes.
