— May 2007 —
So, this next WYSIWYG? It's also going to be the last WYSIWYG.
After three and a half years we've decided to move along to other projects. And we figured why not go out on a really gay note with our annual Pride show? I think it may be the single gayest show we've ever done, too -- and if you've been to WYSIWYG before, you know that's saying a lot. It's going to be EXTRA gay. And loads of fun. We might just be back in the future with occasional special events, but for now I need a bit of a break and would love to return to just being a somewhat-anonymous blogger.
We have a great lineup for the last show and I'm hoping a lot of people come to wish us goodbye on June 13. Here's the info:
The WYSIWYG Talent Show’s Farewell Show
Gays Gone Wild!
Gayer Tales of Gay Gayness
Unfortunately, all good things do come to an end. To celebrate The WYSIWYG Talent Show’s farewell show, we will make tribute to all things Dorothy in honor of Gay Pride Month with “Gays Gone Wild!: Gayer Tales of Gay Gayness” on Wednesday, June 13, 2007 at The Bowery Poetry Club.
This will be the official farewell show for WYSIWYG as we wrap up three and a half years of the first all-blogger reading series in New York City. We laughed, we cried, we wet our pants, all in the pursuit of hilarity, performance and potty jokes. Our final homage to the talented bloggers who have graced our stage this year will feature a gaggle of gay readings from the queerest of the queer, be they gay, lesbian, straight, trans, bi or robot bloggers. So get your chaps on and gussy up your Subaru Outbacks because this will definitely be the best and bumpiest ride you’ve ever been on.
“Gays Gone Wild!: Gayer Tales of Gay Gayness” performs Wednesday, June 13 at The Bowery Poetry Club (308 Bowery between Bleecker and Houston). Doors open at 7:30 p.m., and the show show starts at 8:00 p.m. Tickets are $7.00 at the door. For more information, visit the WYSIWYG website at wysiwygtalentshow.org.

Hi all,
We hate, hate, hate to do this, especially after we had to do the same in March, but due to some scheduling difficulties on our part, we've had to cancel this Wednesday's edition of the WYSIWYG Talent Show.
Ugh. Sorry.
We WILL be back on Wednesday, June 13 with our annual Pride show, "Gays Gone Wild: Gay Tales of Gay Gayness!" The lineup will be announced soon, so mark your calendars or put it in your Outlook or whatever you wacky kids do.
