Call Me Maybe as presented on DJ Grinds April 2012 Podcast!

Call Me Maybe

Smokie McGee is neither a man, nor woman. Growing up off the coast of Kentucky near a cigarette mill, working as a Las Vegas ex-stripper, now taxi cab driver. These are the tales of Smokie's adventures.

★ CIRCUIT ★ PΛRTY ★ BOY ★ MONTREΛL ★

MONTRÉAL QC

Stereo
https://stereo.tickit.ca

This is the nightclub that put Montreal on the map, the house that House built. It is known for its gay events, which are plentiful. Check the night before you arrive, but any night it's worth it to sample the sound and lights.

Unity
http://clubunitymontreal.com

This gay favorite offers two rooms with a rooftop terrace for a mostly (but not exclusively) younger dance crowd.

Stud Bar Montréal
www.lestudmontreal.com

The many street-level entrances to Le Stud give the bears, the dads and the lads easy access to the decadence that awaits them inside. Billiard tables and video-game poker machines line the interior of Le Stud and provide opportunities (or at least a cover) for what goes on further inside. Start on the cruisey dancefloor. Then position yourself in a dark corner and let the fun begin. Musical styles range from dance and disco to new wave and rock, but after a while, you’ll be too busy to pay attention.

Sky Pub Club
www.complexesky.com

This mixed venue in the Gay Village has three floors for dancing, each one offering a distinctly different sound for distinctly different crowds, but it is definitely our territory. The food is worth trying.

Aigle Noir
facebook.com/Bar.Aigle.Noir

That's French for “Black Eagle,” and that should give you a hint that this place takes the leather scene very seriously, indeed. Head for the back bar for live fetish shows that make San Francisco or New York (or, for that matter, pre-Castro Havana) look like Peoria. During the summer, the outdoor street-level terrace is filled to the rafters. Theme nights of leather and rubber gear draw in those the hard-core — or at least those who dress that way.

Chez Mado
www.mado.qc.ca

This is the place any of the locals where to catch the best drag show in a city where drag performance is not an entertainment, it's an art form. This internationally renowned campy cabaret offers nightly themes like “La Guerre des Bitches” (“The War of the Bitches”), Edith Piaf cover acts and ABBA tributes.

Campus
www.campusmtl.com

Montreal is justly famous for its gay strip clubs. They're all pretty fabulous, but this is the one to see hot studs dancing in your lap (for a generous tip, of course).

Bar Le Cocktail
www.barlecocktail.com

In the heart of the Gay Village, the crowd may like the sophisticated drink offerings, but it's les spectacles that are the big draw: drag and karaoke, with a French twist (or is that twisted French)?

PROTEUS 763 ~ Just a passionate dance music lover. If it has beat and makes you wanna jump up and DANCE ~ then thats what I'll do and LUV IT ~ !!  And oh, yeah, BTW in case you were wondering, yes, I do have a classical music education and multi instrument player at various times but mostly piano and organ (pipe - the bigger the fucker the better!)  read music obviously, and have a great pitch perfect ear, but also trumpet, cornet, guitar and I have sung in choirs as a tenor most of my life. So I guess I qualify as a bit of a music geek. Def into the circuit scene 10 -15 years ago but less now since less of my buds go now, ( age is a fucker, and even disco queens get old and wither away...LOL !   but not me...) but with a great DJ and a hot invite, I'd be there in a NY heart-beat, shirt off, gyrating and ass shaking as usual..~ the whole entire Monty ! Oh, yeah, baby !   I've heard it said , or maybe its urban myth, at circuit parties " if I die, don't resuscitate me because I am already in Heaven!"  well...err...... I think that describes me pretty much ! We are so lucky to have the MOST amazing QUALITY of DJs in San Fran and I live in absolute awe (and LOVE!) of all of them. They have, and still give me a huge amount of enjoyment and pleasure in my life, every day,  so thanks guys..just keep the music coming'....      I luv y'all !!       ?

And yeah ~ into the classics as well and have a good and knowledgeable interest in Opera and have an extensive collection of Callas' recordings. That, and the weakness for Kylie Minogue , I guess is what defines me as being decidedly "odd" although ~ "odd" is also decidedly " not SOO odd"  in San Fran and OMG I love living here, "odd " and all ~   !! (especially "odd" !) So there ya have it all now ! Yep ! I'd give my phone # if they would allow it !! LOL!!
