Men in kilts

Does anyone else find the Welsh actor, Tom Ellis, distractingly handsome? I won’t hold the choice of shoes against him in this photo since he is clearly in a dressing room trying on this kilt.

Monday morning mancandy

Posted on March 28, 2022 | 6 comments

Much thanks to BosGuy readers who helped me identify this week’s handsome model. His name is Jose Kuthy and as it turns out, I featured him as a Furry Friday this past February. He certainly makes for a great piece of mancandy.

BosGuy brain teaser

Posted on March 25, 2022 | 7 comments

riddle, exercise for your brain

Each Friday, I post a riddle to get you to think outside the box and exercise your brain. If you are stumped, share it with a friend or colleague and see if you can figure out the answer together.

Leave your answer in the comment section. I’ll approve responses later in the day to give people a chance to respond without seeing any spoilers.

This week’s brain teaser: At half I am only some, but when I’m full, people will turn my way. What am I?

Vintage gay

I dedicate this weekly post, featuring vintage gay photographs, to the men and women who lived in a more critical time where being true to yourself and loving who you want wasn’t always an option and came at a great price. Do you have a photo you would like to share? Email me at bosguymail@gmail.com.

Former bar, Boston Eagle, will become The KARTAL

Posted on March 23, 2022 | 10 comments

Last March I shared that The Boston Eagle had closed. Since then a lot has happened and about 8 weeks ago the owners, who are listed as Two Greeks and a Persian, LLC, petitioned the Boston Licensing Board to make changes to the exterior of 520 Tremont Street for a bar called, Kartal.

Kartal is eyeing a late April / early May opening, but considering the amount of work to be done that seems aggressive. Shahrokh Reza was listed as the manager in the petition and is affiliated with local nightclub group, Pasha Entertainment. Much progress has been made since my post last fall (see here), but much more needs to be done.

A lot of clean up has happened since last fall. From this photo taken earlier this week you can see the bathrooms are (thankfully) being expanded and improved and a small kitchen will be added to serve light appetizers for the cocktail bar. It appears the original tile flooring and bar will remain.

In the coming month you’ll see changes to the exterior, including new lighting fixtures, the removal of the ugly metal grates over the windows, a fresh paint job, and a new tiled entry with the dates 1981 and 2021, noting the 40 years the Boston Eagle operated at 520 Tremont Street.

As more information becomes available, I’ll be sure to share with you what I learn. If you have more information, please reach out to me.

CORRECTION: Shahrokh Reza is not affiliated with Ilona as initially shared in this post, but is directly involved with Pasha Entertainment.

2022 Wicked Queer Film Festival

Posted on March 22, 2022 | Leave a comment

Boston’s LGBTQ+ film festival, a.k.a. “Wicked Queer”, will return to in-person showings and will open with, Wildhood on Thursday, April 7th at The Brattle in Harvard Square.

Wicked Queer Film Festival
April 7 – 17, 2022
Tickets available starting, Friday, April 1, 2022

Boston’s 38th annual LGBTQ+ film festival, Wicked Queer will have more than 40 films over the 10-day festival with showings at The Brattle (Harvard Sq), The Bright Family Screening Room (Emerson College), and The ICA (Seaport). For those who may live further away and cannot attend in person, films will also be available on Wicked Queer’s Xerb-TV channel.

This year’s program will have nearly 20 feature films, half as many documentaries, throwbacks and shorts. I’d also like to give a shout out to my friend and fellow blogger, Matthew Rettemund, who is behind the much lauded, Boy Culture: The Series, and will be available for viewing on Xerb-TV.

WANT TO GET INVOLVED WITH WICKED QUEER 2022

Memberships are available for our 2022 festival season. Help make the 2022 Wicked Queer festival happen by becoming a member. For more information or to join, click here.

It takes a village to put on this festival, and organizers are looking to fill many positions to help ensure the 2022 festival will run smoothly for everyone. For more information about volunteering, please email, volunteer@wickedqueer.org.
