Man Up's Indie Sleaze ⚡ Drag Show + Dance Party

⚡ MAN UP iNDiE SLEAZE ⚡

Our beloved indie party gets a FULL DRAG TAKEOVER!!!

The year is 2009. Indie music is Cool™
~How deep was the V-neck?
~How obscure is that music blog?
~How many bands did you “discover”?

Millennial nostalgia will be yours, because the only thing tighter than our jeans is the grip this music had on our hearts <3

We’re stepping back into the glorious mess of the aughts for a drag show tribute to a time Tumblr ruled the internet and American Apparel was the very height of all fashion. So -->> side sweep your bangs, set your digital camera to flash, and draw a moustache on your finger because March 28th we’re bringing the indie sleaze era to the stage!!!

__________________________

This event is being held on the stolen, ancestral territories of the Musqueam, Skxwú7mesh-ulh, and Tsleil-Waututh nations. As we live and organize queer space as settlers on these lands, we have an obligation to continuously work to repair harms perpetrated upon Indigenous communities, presently and historically. The Birdhouse strives to work with and give back to Indigenous communities in all that we do. Partial proceeds from this event will be donated to the Downtown Eastside Women’s Centre.
