LOVG AND PARTYG AT CHI: 'THE BT LATO GAY BAR' MONTEBELLO
Sokol, a TV producer, was enmhed the gay/art/mp/rock band scene of Echo Park and Silver Lake, as was I. Owned by the proprietor of the gay vaquero dance club, Tempo, the Sre had a long, queer past. It was once a gay bar lled The Keyhole, the ont door surround by a large, woon keyhole shape (that remaed when was the Sre and beyond) day, Sokol lled and told me that he and Licón had bought the bar but didn’t know what to ll .
I thought about Montebello, about queerns and reprentatn, and how sire uld be ptured while avoidg the clichés of so much homoerotic imagery. I wanted imag for Chi that were aimed at a predomantly gay Lato male dience, athetilly rmed by neighborhoods like Montebello, largely workg and middle class.
In the neighborhoods, mascule male erotic sire (both homo and heterosexual) is generally embodied wh an array of archetyp, cludg the homeboy/gangster, the jock and the chal, a term mon Mexi for a mascule young man who might have sex wh other men, but who don’t bear mon queer tras or terts.
