I hope you will all make it a point to come out and meet him! A few lucky winners were picked from our Meet Lance Bass Contest to be the first to be in line. You can bet it will be quite the scene!
My hope is to get the celebrity himself to join me out and about in Boystown. Be sure to check back with ChicagoPride.com this evening to see where we might be.
Thanks again to all of you who participated in our contest!!
Cheers!

I wanted to make sure all of you knew about Minibar|Winebar's 2nd Annual Smokig Hot Halloween event Saturday night!
Every person that comes in is being asked for a $2 cover. ALL of that will be going to the folks at the Chicago Fire Department.
To top it off, the M|W men will be dressed in the finest fire fighting attire. (Or lack there of!)
Why not make your early evening out and about meaningful! Stop by and support our Boystown Boys and the CFD!
Cheers Damnit!

Many in Chicago and around the world know Freddy and his dynamic cabaret partner Amy Armstrong. They were some of my first friends here in Chicago!
I am a blessed guy to call Freddy my friend. He is loyal, sweet, and always ready to listen. With a glass of Grand Mariner in one hand and cola chaser in the other he always makes any occasion one of great memories and laughs.
Please join me tonight at Roscoe's (Halsted/Roscoe) at 9PM to celebrate Freddy!
