My favourite pride moments are all about the music. I’m not talking about the international headliners, although it’s nifty that Cyndi Lauper and Kelis will be here this year. What really gets me going are the indie acts that are vibrating with excitement to play to such a huge crowd!
Standout fave moments include rushing the stage holding my childhood bestie’s hand and screaming at David Usher to remove his clothing, have my babies, etc. At least that’s the print-friendly memory I can share. Rukus, The Hidden Cameras and Esthero were also ginormous highlights for me! The amount of raw talent gracing these stages makes my inner geeky fanboyness race right to the surface.
This year I’m excited to see Serial Sean, Hunter Valentine, Kay Pettigrew, and to wander the streets checking out as much live stuff as I can. I’ll be the one flinging his manties at the favourites
