An Etiquette Guide for Straight People in Gay Bars

Vacuum out that car and grab some friends for this special drive-in show. Tell me about growing up in Denver. But for me, Denver was a big city, as fancy as you could get. It really was a great place to grow up, and I lived in a great neighborhood. But you can live in the most idyllic town in the world and still be a miserable, awful teenager!

As you can imagine, it was tricky. It was just my brother and my parents, who have both passed. She married my stepfather when I was in high school, but she met him when I was just one. He was a car salesman and sold us a red Ford Fairlane. My dad was such an unusual man, he was a WWII vet, but he was kind of a sweet, absent-minded professor.

He was almost androgynous and he was the more affectionate parent. I look like my dad, the same light skin and blue eyes, cheekbones, and I get the creative and bumbling parts of myself from him. My mother was more… she definitely wore the pants in the family. The best? Looking back I really appreciate just the air there and the weather.

When I moved to NY everyone said, you should be used to the cold. Colorado has its issues, groups like Focus in the Family, but Denver was always a very progressive city. I grew up in a progressive family and everyone around us was as well. The worst thing? Just realizing there was more out there.

Denver had Dan Fogelberg and the Eagles. Yeah, but I never wanted to perform my songs, they were more like my diary. I was a guitar player in a band. I wanted to be Jimmy Hendrix, I wanted to shred. I will tell you. I spent my 3rd year of school abroad. One day a guy walked by with a huge dog, like an Irish Wolfhound, and said that he had this club in Sevilla and asked if we would play it.
