If you’re like me, you’re looking to connect with other queers who like the same music you’re into for one reason or another. Whatever that reason may be, here’s a (surprisingly long) list of places you can get your talk on. Some of them are low-flow, but there’s still a strong showing of homos into rock out there. If I missed any, just comment and let me know so I can add it up.

…as far as I know, at least. The site was just on hiatus while I moved. Well, now I’m all settled so I’m back to update the site. Thanks to everybody showing support and asking us not to shut down, it makes me glad to see that people care.

Now that I know you guys exist, why don’t you COMMENT on things? Sometimes it feels like we’re posting to audiences of none, so let us know you’re reading or listening to the stuff.

Speaking of listening, why don’t you go and recheck out the podcasts so far:

QueerPunks Presents 1
QueerPunks Presents 2
QueerPunks Presents 3
QueerPunks Presents 4

Now back to your regularly scheduled blog…
