Event: West Hollywood City Council Meeting "LA Pride 2013"

Tonight at the City Council meeting in West Hollywood, they will be approving the 2014 LA Pride Festival. I still feel pretty strongly about pride needing an overhaul, and there is strength in numbers..

Some of us should show up and voice our opinion. Just a thought. 

If you think that LA Pride should be different, show up!

If you are going to speak, there are a few things to remember:

1. Show up no later than 6pm. Speakers are called in the order they submitted their forms. You can leave and come back at 6:30 when the meeting starts. 625 North San Vicente Blvd. West Hollywood, CA 90069
parking is validated.

2. Submit a “speaker slip” in the lobby. Put 5.A in the box on the form.

3. You’ll have 2 min to speak, but you don’t have to use all two minutes.

Here are some talking points for the meeting. These are all good ideas to bring up at this meeting.

Talking Points
· WeHo Gay Pride is known for being lousy
- it needs new producers
- or it needs to be held accountable for broken promises
· Where is the list of things to do the rest of the month?
- Parties down town
- Gay sporting events
- Ethnic celebrations, Latin, Asian…
- Literary events
- Leather/fetish events
- Parent/kid events
· Local talent is non-existent. Where are the:
- talent agents
- sponsorship experts
- party producers
· Why is the broadcast low budget?
- again the talent exists here to do the best job of anywhere on the planet
· Where is the A-List experience (Packaged Deal) $500 per
- special Viewing area for parade
- brunch before festival
- special entrances to everything
- hotel roof top poop party
- special performances at House of Blues, or other venue
- transportation to events
- A-List area with food and drink
- back stage passes
· We are tired of asking CSW to show us accounting numbers
- why does Council continue to let this slide?

If you are going to go, email me. Thanks!
