****Thanks****

Dearest Queers--

Thank you to all those who came out and made their presence felt at MLTs and Millions on Friday. The bars were packed and the atmosphere was intense. Oodles of sexy-queer-fun was had in the face homophobic bouncers and large numbers of bar patrons who had never been around a group of queer people before.

Missed to fun? Can't wait until next month's CGQB on Friday, December 4th?

Have no fear! There are plenty of queer-tastic events to keep you busy:

1. ARE YOU LISTENING?! is tomorrow:

A day of silent protest against hatred and inaction at the University of Cincinnati on November 10th.

HERE WE GO!!!!

Dearest Queers-


The night has finally come! November's Cincinnati Guerrilla Queer Bar has arrived! Tomorrow, Friday November 6th, CGQB will infuse Cincinnati with some good ol' sexy queer fun!

*****

But what's the lucky establishment? Which bar will be transformed into a world of sexual possibilities, multiple gender expressions, and fantastic interaction for one night?

November CGQB =Mt. Lookout Madness:

MT. LOOKOUT TAVERN & MILLIONS
(3209 and 3212 Linwood Ave. Directly across the street from one another)

Two bars, Twice the queering!

Here's the Plan:

1. Start at MT. LOOKOUT TAVERN!!!!

Come before 10 pm and the cover is FREE. After 10pm, tell the bouncer you're with Guerrilla Queer Bar and the night is 2 for 1-- BOTH bars and TWO people for ONE cover price of 5 dollars. That's right, only 2.50 per person for both bars. Come with a friend, partner, or one-night-fling and split the cover charge. If you come alone, find a cute queer in line and get in for the price of one!

2. At 11:30 CGQB will travel EN MASSE across the street to MILLIONS!!!!

Millions+dj+dance floor+stripper polls (for serious)+a whole lot of cute queers= fantastic. Look out for the people with CGQB t-shirts to know when it's time to make the journey!


******

Don't let Maine get you down! Call all your friends, put on your favorite hot pants-skirt, and get ready to show Cincinnati some queer-dance-love-fantastic!

CGQB


PS. As many of you know, MLTs and Millions don't necessary have the most queer-friendly or feminist reputation. If anything negative occurs with the establishment or patrons, please let someone with a CGQB t-shirt know and we'll deal with it accordingly!

PPS. If that wasn't enough queer fantasticness, there are tons of important events for the queerly minded over the next couple of weeks!

1. ARE YOU LISTENING?! - A day of silent protest against hatred and inaction at the University of Cincinnati on November 10th.

for more information see:
http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=168915853070&ref=share or email kellyer@mail.uc.edu

2. Super-Fun Queer Speed-Dating at Hamburger Mary's November 13th sponsored by the UC Alliance!

RSVP to UCallianceRSVP@gmail.com by the 10th and get only $5 Cover! ($10 at the door, same day) All proceeds go to supporting UC Alliance and future queer activism and youth events.

3. Stop Aids Pre-Gala Kick Off Party!

Stop Aids is throwing an entirely FREE and fantastic party to kick off ticket sales for their December 5th Gala, "Design in the Sky II". Free food and drinksies! For more information and to RSVP see:

Ready, Set, QUEER!!!

Dearest Cinciqueers--

We hope you had a gloriously queer and deliciously irreverent Halloween. Rest well this week, because THIS FRIDAY brings you some even MORE fantastic queer revelry. That's right-- Friday, November 6th, Cincinnati Guerrilla Queer Bar will strike again! Mark your calenders, clear the whole night (and probably the next morning), and call all your friends. Make sure to check your inboxes Friday morning for the top secret location!


CGQB


ps. For the spring chickens (under 21ers) among us-- CGQB ♥ 's you. You are beautiful, lovely, super-duper-queer, and we always want to include you in our Guerrilla Queerings, but there's a chance that the location for Friday night will be hard to swing for the young-ones among us (although there's no hurt in trying!). If anyone closer to the sunrise-of-life wants to organize their own under-21 guerrilla queering, let us know and we'll announce it along with the rest!

Whoops. :(

Dearest CGQB List-Serve,


Sadly, due to some unforeseeable internet-ridiculousness, the announcement for last night's Cincinnati Guerrilla Queer Bar was only sent out over the facebook group. Gasp! Horror! Sigh. Tear.
Hopefully most of you heard that we were doing a Clifton queering at ARLIN'S from the queer-grape-vine and were able to make it out. If you relied on this email and missed the fun, please please please accept our apologies.
See you next month!

Hello Dearest Queers--


The time is here! The air is crisp. Scarves (and people) are finding their way out of the closet. Cutie queers are snuggling up all across the Queen City.

But most importantly, Cincinnati is on the verge of yet another glorious injection of queer-love-dance-fantastic!
That's right...
Cincinnati Guerrilla Queer Bar is BACK IN SESSION!!!

******

For the past 7 months, CGQB has been queering up downtown Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. The city will never be the same! Now it's time to start bringing all the splendid shades of queerness to Cincinnati's neighborhoods!

University of Cincinnati isn't known as an especially queer friendly institution, so in honor of the beginning of the Fall Quarter, Cincinnati Guerrilla Queer Bar will be venturing to Clifton for a special "Queer Bar is Back In Session" edition!

But which bar will have the privilege of CGQB's presence????

*
*
*
*
*
*
ARLIN'S (307 Ludlow Ave)

That's right, tonight, Friday, October 2nd, ARLIN'S will be transformed into a land of queer-fantastic.

******

We've got an extra raucously-sexy and subtly-political CGQB in store. You won't even know what to do with the amount of queer-revelry happening!

This Queer Bar will be dj-d by Project Mill's ultimately sexy Super Mandy, William Rich, and Joshua Maddie, all of Dance MF fame.

Just think of it-- a straight bar, filled with cute queers and GOOD music! What!?

******

So here's what you can do: Call all your friends. Get mentally and emotionally prepared for having a ridiculously good-sexy time. Make it a night.

See you soon beautifuls,


CGQB


ps. If you're looking for some new garments to sexify your queer bar experience (while raising money for NKY Pride!), stop by the Fashion It Forward event before you head over to Arlins:

September 4th CGQB!!!!!

Dearest Queers--


It's that time again beautifuls, the first Friday has finally arrived. Get out your hot pants, sequins, and paste-on-mustache. Practice your favorite pick up lines. Get ready to party with a purpose!

While fall may be knocking on the door, 200+ Cincinnati queer-cuties will be making the hotness last by injecting some good ol' queer-love into the Queen City.

Where, you may ask? What's the lucky normally straight and all-too-narrow bar that will be transformed, for one night only, into queer-dance-love-fantastic?

can we get a drum-roll please...

On Friday, September 4th, at 9pm, CGQB will be queering:

BLACKFINN (19 East 7th Street)

When you come, tell the bouncer that you're part of GUERRILLA QUEER BAR, and you'll get in FOR FREE. Make your way through the first bar/dining area and come find your favorite queers (and meet some new ones) in the back room (no pun intended) where the club/dance area is. Blackfinn has a semi-loose "dress code". Call them at 513-721-3466 if you have concerns about your outfit, but remember, fabulously fierce is always appropriate.

*******

Now it's up to you, oh Queer Cincinnati! Let's show our city the beauty that is Queer-Love (and have a sloppy-fun time in the process)!

Have no fear, Cincinnati Guerrilla Queer Bar is here!
