This week rapper Missy Elliott released her new song WTF (Where They From). Missy teamed up with this Pharrell to produce the catchy song that I predict will be playing in a lot of gay clubs this weekend so I thought I’d share the official video which I can only describe as over the top.
Looking for something different to do tonight? Check out Boston’s handsome DJ Begbick and the hostess for the evening, The Legendary Teashaboo, for Controversy, Boston’s weekly LGBT hip-hop & reggae party.
All the fun will start upstairs at Machine at 10PM at 1254 Boylston Street in the Fenway. For more information check out their Facebook page, Controversy.

Trulia recently published a map indicating which neighborhoods had the highest percentage of 1-bedroom apartments renting for more than $2,000. According to Trulia, the median rent for a 1-bedroom in Boston is $2,300 but that may be viewed as a deal if you are looking for a place in the heart of Boston where rents continue to skyrocket.

In the national ranking Boston had the third highest percentage of 1-bedroom apartments for more than $2,000. San Francisco had the dubious honor of taking first place with 90.6% of 1 bedroom apartments over $2,000 and Manhattan was a close second with 89.3%. Boston was a distant third most expensive with 66.8%.
Let’s not try to rationalize the irrational. This is an attack on everyone who values personal freedoms and individual liberties; unfortunately it happened to take place in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Despite that obscenity the spirit of Paris and the French will rise above this tragedy.
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”

Tomorrow night get sweaty dancing to all the great music played by DJ Brent Covington and DJ Taffy at the Alley Bar in Downtown Crossing (just blocks from the Park, DTX and State Street T stations).
All the fun starts at 10PM but get there early to have a drink with friends to avoid any lines – now that it is starting to get chilly at nights.
Last month I wrote about the Instagram account @bearscubsnbeards. This time I wanted to feature the Instagram account of a guy who first came to my attention via one of my favorite blogs, boy culture.
The incredibly handsome Joe Putignano is a best selling author, model, Cirque du Soleil’s Totem and Broadway performer. He also has a very engaging Instagram account filled with an assortment of very distracting photos.
If you like what you see and you are on Instagram, check out @joeputignano and while you are on Instagram check out my own account, @bosguyblog.
A new gay night is coming to Boston. About two weeks ago you may have heard the rumblings as they hosted their first night in the Alley off of Boylston Street in the Theater District. While I was not able to locate a Facebook Page, the website confirms tomorrow’s party is a go with doors opening at 9:30PM and no cover to anyone who shows up before 10:30PM.
Say hello to my friend DJ Jim Clerkin who will be spinning all the music, the fabulous Mizery and the hard working bartenders, Tommy, Devon and Mike. American Vaudeville Nightclub a.k.a. “Backstage” is located at 19 Boylston Place, Boston, MA 02116. You can check out their website here
