Equalipalooza with Margaret Cho!
By Allison • Oct 7th, 2008 • Category: BlogFrom future presidents to animal cruelty, there’s a lot going on the ballot this November, and if you’re in California that means you’ll get a chance to vote on Proposition 8, the measure that seeks to re-ban same-sex marriage in California. A lot has been done to get the word out about how important it is to vote NO on Prop 8 and make sure our friends and families in the LGBT community have the same rights as hetero folks. To help raise the word about voting NO on Prop 8, some heavy hitters are putting together a benefit show in San Francisco on October 15th called Equalipalooza, hosted by a good friend of GV, none other than Margaret Cho!
It sounds like it’s going to be a great night of Comedy and Entertainment featuring the amazing of talents of:
Margaret Cho – comedy
Johnny Steele – comedy
Heather Gold – comedy
Ali Mafi – comedy
Jay Alexander – magic
Margot Duane – photography
Janice Mirikitani – poetry
Fou Fou HA! – clownfooler
DJ Saint Patrick – musical styling
Body Masterpiece – face painting
And many more surprises…
There also promises to be special guest appearances from several SF politicos including Assmebyman Mark Leno!
