Oregon didn't know what hit them as Fleshbot partnered with ASGMax and came to town for a brunch drag show at The Triple Lindy, Portland's neighborhood dive bar serving it up with draft beers & craft cocktails, plus elevated bar food. We didn't come to play empty-handed...dildos, personal towels, and other adult-minded giveaways were swept up in a matter of minutes as the eager crowd sat down for a drag show that would make RuPaul's eyelashes fall off.

Tickets were SOLD OUT as the hostess with the mostess Nashville Hott celebrated her 123rd birthday (actual age was not disclosed, we are guessing) with her gaggle of local queens Nikki Nihao, Seven, Sue From Corporate, Coco Jem Holiday, and Ellie Leblunt, taking the stage. The crowd got nice and sauced as each queen outdid the other. Portland may never be the same again.

It was nice to see such a diverse crowd at this cozy establishment. The owners opened their arms wide to welcome our community and celebrated some drag. The newly formed ASGMax was there to celebrate the one-year anniversary of one of their babies, Next Door Studios. It was a great event where everyone could let their hair down (and some pant zippers) and just celebrate having a good time. Who knew that Portland had so much Pride?

And what's with the name The Triple Lindy? Well, there are two explanations. The Triple Lindy is a dive that consists of three consecutive flips off of a diving platform, deemed illegal in platform diving competitions. Trust us, people were diving into their drinks and into the drag queen's nylons as the day went on...and we're seeing double and triple, these drinks were strong! If you look up Triple Lindy in the Urban Dictionary, it is defined as a sexual position that requires the strength of Superman and the dexterity of Spiderman. Say no more, we are sold!

Even though Portland is Oregon's biggest city, it has that small-town vibe with big-town diversity, surrounded by mountains, forests, and waterways. We were surprised to see that gay and lesbian bars could be found throughout Portland and most everywhere is gay-friendly. There's even a gay strip club! (Yes, we had to check it out.) In addition, Portland has a very vibrant and visible lesbian community. Yaaassss, sisters! Portland's gay community thrives all year long with events from gay karaoke, and LGBTQ film festival, and Portland's annual pride. There is so much to do and see, we will definitely be back. And we'll bring more dildos next time, they all loved them!
