It is that time of year again when the Seattle Men's Chorus brings out the Yultude and Gay apparel for it annual Holiday Concert.

As a former SMCer, it is hard not to be objective, but I try to separate what happens onstage as completely different to any of the Backstage drama. (No Comment)

First of all, I have been seeing the Holiday concerts for the most part in 14 years. Some have been too serious, traditional, Political, Uneven, Campy. The last 2 years have been uneven with too much (Big Bang Theory skit in 2011) or Not enough (Glee skit in 2010). This year was a nice mix of Camp and Fun, the theme of heading to the tropics was captured throughout the show.

COMEDY RE-view: Jordan at Re-Bar was 'Stitches Funny'!

by MK Scott

Seattle Welcomed back Leslie Jordan to Seattle last night for night one, of a 2 night gig at Re-Bar. (He was last here in 2008 with the Seattle men's Chorus). Jordan, 57, came out to a nearly sold out crowd and jumped from one story after another, and talked mostly about his relationship with his overly-supported mother. The "Sordid Lives' star also joked about his journey with "Lives" the play in a small theater in Hollywood to Iconic film. From when he first hit New York from Chattanooga, Tennessee in 1982 to his Emmy win for 'Will and Grace" in 2006 as Beverly Leslie  (Karen Walker's Nemesis).  Jordan also joked how they wanted Joan Collins, but after she turned the part, the producers want a short, southern, flamboyant male in a white suit! HALLO!

CONCERT RE-view: Seattle Men's Chorus' Pride Concert was 'Memorable', but 'Lacked Balance'!

by MK Scott

Last Friday I attended the Opening Night of the Seattle Men's Chorus's annual Pride concert at Seattle's McCaw Hall and was thrilled it was an Audience choice theme from its 30 plus year history. I knew a few of my favorites would be on the list and was hoping they would be performed.
