Summertime is Coming!

The days are getting longer, the Roadrunners are getting friskier, and the nights are getting warmer. In Palm Springs, that can only mean one thing: Summertime is coming!

For Palm Springs visitors, Summer is considered the “value” season. That means it’s a good time to get great deals, and enjoy a relaxing sunny vacation. But in recent years, our “value” season has become filled with almost as many great events as “high” season.

Take a gander at some of our Summer Fare:

Restaurant Week 2010: Starting Friday, June 4th, and continuing through Sunday, June 13th (Michael’s birthday), restaurant week is a culinary celebration featuring restaurants from the entire Valley -  Palm Springs to Indio!

Participating restaurants offer three-course menus at the fixed price of either $24 or $36 per person (tax, beverages and gratuity are not included).

Don't miss this exciting opportunity to experience some of the best restaurants the desert has to offer.

Spring TING V Bids a NAKED Bon Voyage to Shann Carr and her crew!

The men from TING have had a special pace in their hearts for comedian Shann Carr ever since she made a surprise appearance at Fall TING, and performed her stand-up act in front of a crowd of over fifty naked gay men!



So once we realized that TING V’s dates coincided with the launch of Shann’s Summer Land Cruise, we just had to do a special naked bon voyage for Shann and her crew! Photos are attached!



About Out For Laughs: The Land Cruise.



Shann Carr’s Out For Laughs: The Land Cruise is currently motoring through cities across the US from May to mid-August, sprinkling fun-loving gay comedy out onto the landscape of gay (and not-so-gay) America.

Shann and her sidekick, aspiring comedian, Ken Cypert, a self proclaimed hillbilly from Arkansas, now residing in NYC, are performing at gay events, large and small, including pride celebrations, summer festivals and various truck stops and dive bars along the way. They're frolicking with other gay & lesbian performers and interacting with the locals they cross paths with - all the while capturing everything on film. And when they’re done, all of it goes 'in the can' to create a comedy/reality series called "Out For Laughs: The Land Cruise."
