we're safe to call the L-Beach event Europe's answer to the Dinah, they write in their booking document that they've been inspired by the "Dinah Shore Week".
i still don't know what to make of this, and just in case i could miss something important, i signed up to their newsletter ;)
They seem to be really serious about this event, if they really get all those artists signed they asked, this will one hell of a weekend.

...especially for the news on the Zinentiendo festival (I dig the dorky lettering code!) and the mention of "Leonera", which I had heard nothing about yet. After reading through the website, I'll definitely try to catch it in theaters. Thanks for putting me on to it!

Also, a lesbian entertainment and news week where the worst thing that happened is a well-performed knee surgery is definitely a good week in my book!
