Tajma Hall and Teri Yaki had obviously taken their nasty-ass pills before the www.M4M411.com launch party at Jackhammer, because they were both at their inappropriatest. I know, I know, no mean feat for Teri, but even Taj was less than lady-like. All fitting for the occasion, I thought. Let’s all wish good luck to John and the whole team at www.M4M411.com. Download the pdf and see my photos on page 13.

I semi-stalked our very own music writer Marc “Moose” Moder this week, and who could blame me. Just two of his seemingly 4.6 billion gigs are the Old Skool House Party at Mary’s Attic (2nd Friday of each month) and Downtown Lights at Downtown Bar and Lounge (1st and 3rd Fridays).

What about 4th Fridays, Moose? Ya gettin’ lazy?

Lots of great events coming up. The opening of Flesh: Photographs by Justice Howard at the Leather Archives on Feb. 1 is not for the faint of heart, but I suspect the faint of heart don’t read my column. Scot’s annual “Slap My Ass and Call Me Sally” chili cook off takes place Super Bowl Sunday, so get your antacids ready. Touche sashes a new Mr. Chicago Leather this weekend, and roasts the old one.
