Comeback's 4 Year Anniversary Bash with Tronik Youth

What's the craziest thing that's happened during one of Seattle's filthiest, sweatiest, most innovative queer dance nights since its inception at Chop Suey four (already??!) years ago? "Probably the guy in the chicken-head mask that got his briefs ripped off while go-go dancing and then stage-dived into a writhing mass of wasted queers too drunk to catch him—ouch," recalls co-founder Marcus Wilson, aka Ursula Android. Initially born from what Wilson and Co. felt was "a lack of dance nights/parties for fags that didn't subscribe to the popular gay regime—mindless, boring house music, high-energy K-hole nightmares"—and "wanting to dance with other gays to music we actually liked, not just the circuit-party crap the gay bars feel compelled to play, even though nobody seems to actually like any of it," the night, known also for its racy, vintage porn-bedecked posters, has drawn a crowd that's a bit more varied than originally anticipated (less queerpunk/dirt fag, more art fags/hip kids/rad straight allies and freaks). Tonight, expect it to be a big one. Look out for: Custom Comeback T-shirts and briefs, nearly naked go-go boys, a corn-dog-bobbing buffet, and special guest, jolly olde England's Tronik Youth. With Miss Toats & Joee Irwin, and DJs Colby B, FITS, and Porq. AJA PECKNOLD
