Hey all
I have a my biggest gig so far in 6 days time - and I'd really appreciate some input as its a new area for me. I'm VJing for an Aids Concern party - the music will be house (suits me) and the crowd will be 70% gay. I'm creating a set that is fun but also informative.Now I want to create a slightly camp set but without going over the top.

I'm sure some of the experienced VJ's will have covered these type of GIGs and I would love to know what images / film clips worked really well for you (I'm not after ur secrets - just what worked well generally)

If this goes well then it will seal a residency for me at this club.

Thanks for any input (sensible)
Regards

Turkish

when ive done gay nights before, one tape thats always gone down well, (i think its a cliche but they like it) is a compilation made from a couple of chippendale type male stripper vids, you see em all the time in charity shops

also you can never go far wrong with stuff like the wizard of oz/the wiz :)

I would imagine a little fetish stuff won't raise too many eyebrows either..

good luck, everyone knows the gay community throws the BEST parties.

I haven't done gay stuff so far, but what about cancan type of dance scenes and old broadway-style stuff?

I did a gay event a year ago and the promoter of the party gave me a bunch of pictures of Ken dolls doing stuff and dressed like girls, it was really funny.
