Don’t miss out on the biggest pool party of the year.  Come and spLAash this Gay Pride Weekend!

DEFINE “POOL”

a. pool

A pool party should have a real pool.

These are usually found at expensive homes in the hills. And they are hard to get invited to.

They found one.  And you’re invited.

b. house in the hills

Los Angeles is famous for these.  But they usually have small pools and you can only invite 10-20 of your closest friends.  They wanted to invite 1000.

So the “house” is a $65 million dollar estate in a private compound, with room for 1000.

Don’t panic! It’s 12 minutes from GAY WEST HOLLYWOOD.

c. music

You need music for a real party.

Loud music. But what about the neighbors?

This house has no neighbors.

So they’re putting in a 4 point line array concert sound system (the ground will be shaking).

You need a pool party DJ for this.  So they added Roland Belmares.

d. boys

This pool party holds 1000. That’s a lot of boys.

Boys in trunks. Boys in briefs. Boys in the pool. Boys on the grass (real grass.)

And they’re bringing a few “lifeguards” to “supervise.” (These aren’t your average lifeguards.)

e. extras

bars and beverages

water guns

frisbee & lawn games

a real hedge maze (to get lost in)

SUMMER’S BIGGEST POOL PARTY

From Bette Davis’ first Oscar win in 1935 to Joan Crawford’s death in 1977, these two Hollywood divas waged a bitter personal feud competing for acting roles, top billing, Academy Awards and men. BitchSlap! is a comedic take on the long-running dispute with a memorable behind-the-scenes look at the star’s double billing on the 1962 classic Whatever Happened To Baby Jane?. Egging the celluloid luminaries on is reigning gossip queen Hedda Hopper, publishing and profiting from her notes on Davis’ notorious one-liners and Crawford’s sly maneuvering. Catch this West Coast premiere for an insider examination of the Divine Feud.

SUR, a classy bar and restaurant  which is just down the street from Gay West Hollywood hotspots The Abbey, Here Lounge, The Factory, Ultra Suede, and Robertson, is going to be the title and subject of a new Bravo reality show!

The show was announced Wednesday by Bravo, is a spinoff of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”, and will be appropriately titled “SUR”.

According to US WEEKLY, co-owner Lisa Vanderpump will star in the show and “open the salacious kitchen doors of her exclusive Hollywood restaurant and lounge.” “SUR” is being produced by Evolution Media, along with Vanderpump, husband Ken Todd, Douglas Ross, Greg Stewart, Kathleen French, and Alex Baskin.

The fancy new Lounge at SUR is currently hosting White Party Promoter Jeffrey Sanker’s Thursday night gay hotspot Temptation.

We’ve been telling you again, and again, and again about your chance to come and meet Lisa. We’re strongly suggesting you hurry up and visit because once this show hits the airwaves, the place is going to be a madhouse!

New Reviews:
NiteLifeExchange.com
BroadwayShowBiz.com Ron Forman: WKRB 90.3FM Radio Host -
Craig Pomranz’ new show The Break-Up Show: Breaking Up is the Thing To Do, at the Metropolitan Room, like all of Craig’s show is an evening of Great Songs, Great Singing and lots of very funny patter. Craig’s performances invariably have a theme that ties the songs together. The very well thought out selection of songs, treat the often sad and sometimes hilarious process of either breaking up or recovering from the breakup of a relationship.

Craig Pomranz sings in many voices, all quite good. He has a remarkable vocal range that ranges from falsetto to a very robust baritone. He uses all of his voices appropriately in this new show. The show opens with These Foolish Things followed by a beautifully slow tempo performance of Neil Sedaka’s Breaking Up is Hard to Do. Pomranz shows off his falsetto voice in My Eyes Adored You and his gift for writing very funny lyrics with his updated version of an obscure Cole Porter song Nobody’s Chasing Me. The medley of I Guess I’ll Hang my Tears Out to Dry and It Never Entered My Mind is quite moving. The show ends on an optimistic note with the Gershwin’s Love Walked In. His encore number, Peggy Lee’s I Love Being Here With You, very well describes Craig Pomranz’ demeanor on stage.

Craig Pomranz is a performer that is always a must see, for me, whenever he appears in New York. Craig will have one more appearance at the Metropolitan Room 34 West 22nd Street on Wednesday evening March 14 at 9:30 PM, before taking this show to California.

“I haven’t seen spontaneous standing ovations like this at the Metropolitan Room except for Julie Wilson and Marilyn Maye.” Backstage

“exceptional voice…powerful performance…came deep from his soul…mesmerizing the audience.”Music Connection Magazine

“Yes, Michael Buble sings nice, but he’s not the only one holding up the crooner tradition theses days. Here’s a fellow chirping love songs for the season in a makes-you-want-to-hold-hands-with-whoever-is-next-to-you-even-if-you-don’t-know-him-or-her-style. And guess what? He’s funny, too…”

MAC Awards 2012 “Best Male Vocalist” Craig Pomranz, one of the dreamiest voices in the music industry returns to Los Angeles!

The Break-Up Show:

Breaking up is the thing to do…

90.3FM

“Tenor of the Times…” GQ Magazine

“The BEST male singer…his four octave voice is
alternately
affecting, powerful and nuanced; it is
one of the finest instruments in the city”
NY Post

“One of New York’s most critically-acclaimed saloon
singers”

“a remarkable vocal range that ranges from falsetto to a
very robust
baritone…a performer that is always a must
see.”
BroadwayShowBiz.com: Ron Forman: WKRB

New York Magazine

Craig Pomranz, reminiscent of Johnny Mathis, Chet Baker and

Little Jimmy Scott, one of the dreamiest voices in the music industry returns to Los Angeles with his All-New show “The Break-Up Show: Breaking up is the thing to do…” Craig will take you on a ride along the melodious and rocky road away from love with laughs and the promise of new romance as a part of the journey! From Neil Sedaka to Cole Porter, from serious to deliriously silly, and from start to finish, this is a party you won’t want to miss. As Irving Berlin would ask, “What’ll I do?” Leo Robin and Lewis Gensler might say “Love is just around the corner…” So spend the night with Craig in a show that guarantees both smiles and sighs.

WKRB Radio Host Ron Forman says “a performer that is always a MUST-SEE for me whenever he appears…” Craig has distinguished himself consistently by performing music from the Great American Songbook that never wears out its welcome, along with contemporary pop and unusual tidbits he has collected from songwriters through the years. It’s a one-stop entertainment buffet, graced most importantly with Craig’s impeccable and artful appreciation of both lyrics and melody – with his own unique talent and compelling vocal style, in the timeless tradition of Chet Baker, Sammy Davis Jr. and Frank Sinatra.

Pomranz’s appearances have proven to be some of the most entertaining evenings of live performance. Stephen Bocchino is Craig’s formidable musical director, accompanist and partner in verbal high-jinks. Pomranz crafts shows that feel freshly minted each night, like a nightclub act at the Copa from the golden days.

In addition to his solo performances, he has shared the stage with Dame Cleo Laine, Barbara Cook, Betty Buckley, Ann Hampton Callaway, Karen Akers and Cissy Houston. Peter Allen, a great fan, supplied him with many songs to sing, one of which, “I Never Thought I’d Break,” is covered on his debut CD My Heart Don’t Skip A Beat. His latest CD More Than A Seasonal Thing has garnered raves such as “an aching and disarming earnestness that demands attention, nakedly emotional and artifice-free” Rob Lester Talkin’ Broadway Pomranz headlines at the most celebrated nightspots domestically and internationally, at NY’s Metropolitan Room, London’s famous Pizza on the Park and The Pheasantry, Los Angeles Gardenia Restaurant & Lounge and Chicago’s Davenports. His previous engagements have garnered universal critical praise. GQ Magazine called him “The Tenor of the Times!”  The Music Connection had this to say: “exceptional voice…powerful performance…came deep from his soul, mesmerizing everyone in the audience…”

What the critics are saying…

“Yes, Michael Buble sings nice, but he’s not the only one holding up the crooner tradition theses
days. Here’s a fellow chirping love songs for the season in a makes-you-want-to-hold-hands-with-
whoever-is-next-to-you-even-if-you-don’t-know-him-or-her-style.
And guess what? He’s funny, too…” The Village Voice

“Craig Pomranz makes an audience sigh at the sheer beauty with which he sings.” Cabaret Scenes

“I haven’t seen spontaneous standing ovations like this at the Metropolitan Room except for Julie
Wilson and Marilyn Maye.” Backstage

“an excellent singer with a clear rangy soft tenor voice that can be totally captivating.”
