Press Pass! A Q&A with Miami Horror.

Whether you frequent the club scene or dance alone in your kitchen – chances are high that you have grooved to at least one of Australian act, Miami Horror’s catchy new hits from their debut album, Illumination.

Reporting on behalf of Saturday Night Magazine, last month, I heard from founder and lead, Benjamin Plant, after their first ever L.A. performance.

Click on over to discover what he has to say about their genre, how he fits into dem skinny jeans, and which eccentric, niche celebrity the band got to hang out with while they were here.



You know how everyone else knew I was gay? 1:9

At Snowcoming – our winter dance – my freshmen year of high school, I requested that a gaggle of my female friends line up and bend over so I could photograph their asses.

Pretty hetero, actually.

Until I pasted it onto an abstract arrangement of multicolored construction paper and tucked it into my scrapbook.

Sure had myself fooled, though:


Curiassity.

“I have to ask…” an opposing dodgeballer began, engaging with me for the first time at GYM bar Tuesday night.  “Is that your real butt?”

“What?” I laughed, “Of course.  What else would it be?”

“We,” she motioned to the gay boi standing beside her, “thought you might be wearing padded underwear or something.”

“Nope.  Alllll me,” I cocked my hip to the right and made mah booty POP out even further.  “You can touch it if you’d like.”

“Ooo!  Yes, please!” They each grabbed a cheek.  “Oh!  Oh yeah. That’s real.  Real nice!

Mmmhmmm.  You bet yo’ own asses it iz.  Because – booty and mind, heart on and soul – with me, what you see is always what you get.


Word to the wasted.

No pills or powders –

On “school nights.”

That’s just plain irresponsible.


Freedom.

Any way you pronounce it.
