How lovely to encounter this video of Gryphon Blackswan, a faerie friend from the good old days.
How cool that there is a “Radical Faerie Ancestors” channel on youtube!

Thirteenth Annual San Francisco Folsom Fair Queer Longhair Party
Despite host Stardust having the flu, the thirteenth annual San Francisco Folsom Fair Eve Queer Longhair Party was a grand success. Thanks especially to Fruitboy, Scott, Guy, and Mike for setup help, to Scott for bringing the hairy name badges, to Sierra for cleanup help, and to everyone who helped out in one way or another. The camaraderie from you folks makes it worthwhile to host this party year after year.

I recently visited Patrick in Portland who is an amazing sculptor and a great friend. Check out his website at http://gracewoodstudio.com and if you like his work please “like” his Facebook page.

Faerie Freedom Village at 2010 San Francisco Queer Freedom Celebration
Volunteers created an exquisite temporary radical faerie sanctuary within the larger 2010 San Francisco Queer Freedom Celebration. Although the Faerie Freedom Village opened a bit later than anticipated, it was well worth the wait!
The last picture of fabulous faerie Keleb comes from San Francisco news coverage of the event.
Mikes on Bikes at 2010 San Francisco Queer Freedom Parade
The Mikes on Bikes made a fabulous showing in the San Francisco Queer Freedom Parade at this year’s 40th San Francisco Pride Celebration.
After riding and enjoying the festivities, we met in the evening for a hot tub party.

Cayenne Celebrates the Big 60th Birthday!
A good time was had by all at Cayenne’s 60th birthday party here in San Francisco.
I performed a poem called “The Leaden Echo and the Golden Echo” by Gerard Manley Hopkins in full ponce drag.
Other performers included Jim e Sparklepants, Ryan Mintz with his new hit “Welcome Home”, Peggy Leggs (thanks for helping with my makeup sweety!), Bimbo the Clown, Charley pole dancing, and a host of luscious models working the runway in the fashual (fashion ritual) organized by Jack Davis. After all the entertainment, Jack Davis led a ritual offering to Cayenne of all that those gathered felt he desired and deserved, followed by Cayenne speechifying a bit then cutting the amazing cake.
Check out the pictures and videos I took of the event (and please let me know if you’d like anything removed):
