C. Paul Heins, the music director for Lesbian & Gay Chorus of Washington, D.C. (LGCW) since April 2003, directs the chorus in rehearsal prior to their concert last Saturday, January 24, 2009, at Capitol Hill Presbyterian Church. LGCW, a charter member of the GLBT Arts Consortium, celebrated their 25th Anniversary with a performance of the commissioned piece “Under the Greenwood Tree,” by Robert Convery.

D.C. Mayor Adrian M. Fenty proclaimed January 24, 2009, Lesbian & Gay Chorus of Washington, DC Day. [pdf]

LGCW, whose ties to the DC gay community go back to when they held a few rehearsals at long-gone drag bar “Rogue” according to member Jill Strachan, will hold an open house for prospective members at the Parish of St. Monica & St. James, on Tuesday, February 10, at 6:30-8 p.m.

Every Sunday from mid afternoon until late in the evening at Meridian Hill Park in Washington DC, a large group of dancers, drummers, and the occasional tightrope walker or hula hooper gather to participate in what can best be described as a human circus. According to the most common version of the origin of the circle, it can be said that it started as a way to celebrate the life of Malcom X after his death in 1965.

In a rare unplanned encore demanded by fans, Barenaked Ladies performed fan-favorite “When I Fall” during their first regular concert, Tuesday, January 29, 2008, on the rock-and-roll cruise “Ships and Dip III,” hosted by the band. The narrative is sung from the point of view of a greasy window washer looking into a corporate boardroom from his perch on the outside. He doesn’t care for his job, and his mind wanders, asking the listener to support him in his inevitable failures. “I wish I could fly from this building, from this wall,” Ed Robertson, center, sings. “And if I should try, would you catch me if I fall, when I fall?” Steven Page sings backup and Jim Creeggan plays upright bass. The rest of the band joins in finishing the gentle song, ending the concert.

Barenaked Ladies singer Steven Page performs Tuesday, January 29, 2008, with a pair of pink panties thrown by a fan in his pocket. The photo is from a continuing series of images from rock-and-roll cruise “Ships and Dip III,” hosted by Barenaked Ladies.

Page was arrested early Saturday morning, July 12, 2008, for possession of cocaine. Page was caught by police with the drug while in the Manlius, NY, home of his girlfriend, Christine Benedicto, with whom he had an argument earlier that evening.

Barenaked Ladies held a “Double Dipper” set Sunday, January 27, 2008, during Ships and Dip III for fans who were on the cruise for the second time (S&D III was actually the second cruise, not the third). During the set, BNL performed their songs picked randomly from a bucket of requests provided by fans, some of which they hadn’t sung for years. Above, Steven Page and Ed Robertson get some help from a lyric book, provided by one of the fans. They played everything that was pulled (“F@%k it, it’s in the bucket!”), with the exception of “One Week.” Page said something to the effect of “I don’t come on the cruise to play ‘One Week.’” Fans agreed.

These two are dressed to fit the Tacky Tourist theme of the day. At right, passengers board the ship underneath one of the ship’s features they don’t want to use – lifeboats.

Members of Barenaked Ladies (BNL) perform a “Sail Away Set” on the Lido deck during disembarkation. From left to right: Ed Robertson singing, Kevin Hearn on accordion, Tyler Stewart drumming, and Jim Creeggan intent on his upright bass. Below, Steven Page belts out a loud one.

We took a trip to Miami to cruise with “Ships and Dip III,” a rock-and-roll cruise with my three favorite bands in the world. Here are some photos from the flight out. Take a look at this picture over Washington during the winter – a nice cold January day to contrast the heat wave we are having this late spring while I post this.
