Music

The number two resonates with the Gay Men’s Chorus of South Florida (GMCSF). Two shows, two venues, two sellouts, $200,000. Over the weekend, the chorus did two ABBA shows at two different spots, selling out both. They also announced that grant cuts at the federal and state levels have seen $200,000 in funding evaporate. More LGBTQ-targeted cuts are expected next year.

Ask any queer person, and they will tell you that we are virtually everywhere. Next door, across the street, holding political office, on the pulpit, on stage, in movies, in books, and on TV, falling in love in hockey rinks. Even performing with The Beatles and the Rolling Stones, as is illuminated in gay director Paris Barclay’s documentary “Billy Preston: That’s The Way God Planned It,” about the titular, late, gay, singer/songwriter and keyboard player.

Independent queer singer/songwriter Rachael Sage is nothing if not prolific, considering that she has released nearly 20 full-length albums and multiple EPs over the course of 30 years. In addition to her busy live performance schedule, she runs her own label, MPress Records, which has issued albums by queer acts including Melissa Ferrick and K’s Choice, as well as the solo debut by James Mastro of The Bongos fame, among others.

When fans learned in early 2025 that Monica and Brandy would go on tour, the news was met with widespread excitement. That admiration was on full display as “The Boy is Mine” tour took a stop at the Kaseya Center in Miami. 

By 1975, much of Elton John’s artistic output, including “Tumbleweed Connection,” “Madman Across the Water,” “Honky Chateau,” and “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” had not only been greeted enthusiastically by critics but also by fans who were eager to accept his musical genius combined with his antics.
