Hi All,
It’s with a heavy heart that I must say goodbye to QueerPunks.com and move on to other ventures. I started this site in late 2001 as a way to meet punk rock homos and talk about the things we all had in common. I was able to learn so much from all the visitors, contributors, and message board posters. I truly feel that this site, because of you, has made me a better person. I thank you for that.
A lot of you know that I’ve worked in the music industry for close to 14 years and lately things have been increasingly busy for me. I haven’t been able to devote any quality time to this site, or contribute much content. It seems that now is the right time to hand over the site to the person who has been running the majority of the operations here for the past 18 months, and still has a strong connection to the community to which we belong. If you haven’t figured that out already - that would be Jeremy AKA Jaffa.
There are a few people that have helped us out along the way that I would like to thank. Mike Shea and the editorial staff at Alternative Press Magazine. Jason Tate and the news posters at AbsolutePunk.net, Larry-Bob, Anthony AKA Anonymous Boy, Aubin and the staff over at PunkNews.org, Andy at Towleroad, Todd and Matty at DList, and last but not least Jeremy here at the QP. All of you have supported us, and the site and I am forever grateful for that. You all hold a special place in my heart.
I will still be around posting comments and/or maybe the occasional entry once in a great while. If any of you need to reach me my e-mail address will always be active.
Soo…without much further ado - Take it away Jeremy!
XOXOXO
Adam LaRue
Whoa. Pretty sad to hear this. But I’m wishing you all the best in your future endeavours. Peace.
Thanks for getting things going with the site. I know when someone has multiple things going on in their life, sometimes you have to concentrate on other things. Good to know that the site will continue, though!
