Heading to Miami for the first time

Posted on January 23, 2017 | 4 comments

gay travel, gay florida, miamiSergio and I typically go somewhere warm at the end of January to give us something to look forward to after the holidays and to break up the winter months, which can be pretty bleak in Boston.  This year we decided to take a break from our routine of going to The Caribbean and visit Miami. I’ve never been to Miami, and I’m curious to see what all the hype is about.

Sergio and I are staying at two different hotels: The Standard and The Gaythering. Aside from plans to connect with friends and enjoy the warm weather, we have little else planned. For those who like Miami, share some suggestions on what you think we should do / places we should go while there.

Let me know what you think. Do you have a photo in a kilt that you’d like me to share? Forward it to me at bosguymail@gmail.com.

Emerson Colonial Theatre will reopen in 2018

Posted on January 22, 2017 | 1 comment

Earlier this month Boston Magazine had an encouraging article for Boston Theater lovers. To quote the article, “Soon, Emerson’s Colonial Theatre will be dark no longer.”

London’s Ambassador Theatre Group (ATG), which oversees theaters around the world, has partnered with Emerson College and has plans to begin hosting productions in 2018. ATG will work with Emerson to also incorporate student programming and youth programs and they told The Boston Globe they envision the possibility of running Broadway tryouts of shows at The Colonial much like it did in the past. However, first the theater will first be refurbished.

All of this is probably music to the ears of theater organizations, that have been clamoring for more space. For established theater companies like the Boston Lyric Opera, which lost their home at the Shubert last year this could be very significant. Recognizing the need, ATG’s Chief Executive told The Boston Globe, “We are going to make every effort that we possibly can to support the Boston Lyric Opera’s search for a new home.”

What a wonderful photo that perfectly captures how I would like everyone to be able to wake up on a Sunday morning.  For the record, I’d be the guy on the left, still dead asleep. Which one would you be?

Women’s March

Posted on January 21, 2017 | 1 comment

womens-march-on-washington-dcIt is unprecedented to think that just 24-hours after Trump was sworn into office in Washington D.C. The Women’s March in D.C. appears to have drawn crowds that rival in size those of the inauguration to the incoming President.

“We can whimper, we can wine or we can fight back. Me I’m here to fight back!”  U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren told more than 175,000 protesters at the Women’s March Boston

It has been many years since I’ve seen so many people exercising their right to protest (an estimated 80,000 175,000 in Boston with an estimated 3.3 to 4.2 million people across the U.S.), and I can not think of another instance where the incoming President has received such an overwhelming rebuke – not just in DC and Boston but worldwide.

I know much will happen over the next four years that I will disagree with, but I am energized and encouraged by what I am seeing not only in the streets of Boston but throughout our country. As a socially progressive liberal, it is rare to see so many speaking out and my only hope is the intensity remains. Much thanks to my friends for sharing some of their photos from today’s march in Boston since I could not be there personally.

MiniLuxe to move into Emilio’s Pizza space in South End

Posted on January 20, 2017 | 2 comments

miniluxeDespite persistent rumors that Starbucks was looking at the now vacant Emilio’s Pizza, earlier this week it was confirmed that Boston-based MiniLuxe will be opening their next location in Boston at 536 Tremont Street.  According to an article in The Boston Guardian, the local chain is leasing the building space, but when they would open and the duration of the lease were not shared

I am happy this space will not be replaced by another real estate office or bank, because I think it is important that street level commercial space along streets like Tremont should be reserved for businesses that are open at nights as well to avoid having large portions of our city blocks go dark after 5PM.
