The Philadelphia Gay News asked its readers to write in nominations for a slew of categories a month ago; I was pleasantly shocked to learn that I was one of the nominations for Best Local DJ, Best Party Promoter and that Sex Dwarf was nominated for Best Theme Night!
Well, the results are in - and I’ve won BEST LOCAL DJ in the 2011 Best Of Gay Philly!
Our readers spoke, the votes have been tallied, the smoke has cleared and the only ones left standing are the winners of PGN’s first annual Best of Gay Philadelphia, celebrating all things that matter to the LGBT community in the city of brotherly stuff and other stuff. Some of the categories were won by a total landslide victory. Other categories were really tight — fierce battles where every vote mattered.
Besides the award, the PGN editorial department wrote:
Wow! You all like retro 1980s pop, new-wave and zombie-themed parties just as much as we do. And Robert Drake is seemingly tireless when it comes to bringing it to us. If he’s not working at WXPN or hosting a theme night or dance party (Sex Dwarf, Zombie Prom, etc.) somewhere in the city, he’s opening for the hit bands from the ’80s when they roll through town.
Thanks to all who voted for me!
