Atlanta for MLK weekend?

For those of us who belong to the black gay and lesbian community, MLK weekend in Atlanta, Georgia has become sort of a ritual. This is particularly true for members of the house ball community, who usually take this weekend at an opportunity to convene for the annual "Atlanta Awards Ball" (think of it as a sort of Grammy Awards ceremony for Atlanta's ball scene).


But this year I'm really not "feeling" it. I'm not feeling like doing the whole meet and greet thing, not feeling like seeing the same ol' queens at Club 708 and Atlanta Live, not feeling like spending money frivolously. But then again, MLK weekend could be a perfect opportunity for me to have a little fun before the new semester starts up.


What's a brother to do?

Frank go ahead enjoy the MLK weekend in Atlanta. I am certain it will be nice and it would not be the same without you in attendance, it appears that you are a vital part of the Ball Community besides it will be Spring Semester before you know it, so go ahead enjoy your break from school.

Welcome to your mid twenties... After awhile, some if feels more like a chore then a treat..

Frank, dude I live in ATL and probably won't be here....It's the same ole same ole, all the time...I'm going elsewhere MLK

Man I used to live in ATL for 8 years Ive had my fill but by all means enjoy yourself it will be loads of fun. Im taking crew to Las Vegas for MLK - ITS ON BABY
