Café Habana are hosting a whole weekend of 

Hallowe’en mayhem from Fri 29th Oct to Sat 31st 

Oct. As always they have gone all out with the 

decs, themed drinks and cabaret. Their ghoulish 

weekend culimates in a charity fundraiser on Sun 

30th Oct from 6pm, for local charity LGBT Youth 

Scotland – so dig deep folks! Carrying on their 

reputation as our scene’s biggest charity donators, 

the tomfoolery includes karaoke, cabaret, prizes 

for the best-dressed and of course a fantastic 

raffle! Get down to this amazing night and also 

grab the chance to chat with some of LGBT Youth 

Scotland’s finest volunteers and staff. Habs have 

also launched a new quiz night, every Mon night 

from 9pm. Their first quiz saw Miss Coco Chanel 

hosting this night of brain teasing, and at only £1 

to enter the prize was £100 cash. 

Big news this Hallowe’en is the 

announcement of a surprise Tackno event! A 

fantastic night of cheesy entertainment that just 

keeps coming. Tackno will be taking over Elbow 

Edinburgh on Sun 31st Oct from 10pm for a 

Haunted House party!!! Publicity materials say it’s 

taking place at the Ghillie Dhu, but some fool there 

double booked. They will be transforming the place 

into a Hammer House of Horrors! Join DJ Trendy 

Wendy for spine-chillingly cheesy tunes... And 

dress to distress with Fancy ‘fearless’ Nancy and 

the ghostesses with the mostess! They sure do 

know how to throw a themed party. Plus all your 

Tackno favourites... prizes, performances and 

plenty of surprises!!! They have applied for a 3am 

license. Entry is FREE, but it’s a charity fundraiser 

so donations are suggested. Other news at Elbow 

is that they will be having live music every first Fri 

of the month from The Hanley Tree. 

Planet too are hosting a BIG Hallowe’en

party destination before you all head to GHQ for 

the spooky goings on there all weekend!! With free

Alan Joy is continuing the re-release of his 

old JOY mixes. Coming this month are the Sep, 

Oct and Nov mixes from 1995 – 15 years since 

their original release! Every month’s release 

contains two CDs, mirroring the fact that the mixes 

were made for both sides of a cassette. Retro 

meets modern! Love it. Copies of these awesome 

bangin’ mixes from this legendary DJ are available 

at The Regent and Café Nom De Plum – a steal 

for only £5. And all proceeds go to Hotscots FC, 

Edinburgh’s gay friendly football team.

Bearsparty is the best value men-only dance

of the best dance music around. On Sat 6 th Nov

their target of rising £1,000 by Xmas!!! Bear City

of New York City nightlife during a big bear party 

weekend of lust, love, and life. There will also be a 

draw for a DVD copy and signed poster, one free 

raffle ticket with each cinema ticket which can be 

booked though the Bearsparty facebook page. 

Numbers are limited so check out the trailer at 

http://www.bearcitythemovie.com/ and get your 

place booked!! 

Club Velvet for the ladies (and accompanying 

male friends) has quickly become a scene favourite 

once again. Settling nicely into their new location 

at The Speakeasy, next date is Sat 20th Nov from 

10.30pm. Also for the ladies, this month’s 

Furburger is on in the back room at GHQ on Fri 

12th Nov. 

A sad moment now, with the mention of the 

very sad passing of Scottie – very popular barman 

and DJ at the Newtown Bar. He passed away 

whilst on his holiday in Spain. 

Scott McLaren first appeared on the scene in 

April 1994, when QT’s (now The Street) opened its 

doors in a previous straight bar. Over the years 

Scottie was a familiar face on the scene and in 

2007 he took up residence in the New Town Barnot 

only organising its music and entertainment 

(supplied by his own unique production company, 

Spliffdog Music), but working behind the bar. A 

unique person in pub circles, Scottie knew almost 

every customer not only by drink, but by name, 

with many a punter having a drink ready in the 

time they made it from the door to the bar counter. 

Over the last 3 years, Scottie worked tirelessly 

through the New Town for their favourite charity 

Waverley Care. Every Sunday during the Fringe, 

Scottie ran the FUNdraiser cabaret showcases, 

along with Scott Agnew, coercing and cajoling top 

names, the likes of Stephen K Amos and Jo 

Caulfield to give their time and energy FREE and to 

appear in the NTB for Waverley. Over the last three 

years more than £5k has been raised by these 

events. Scott died suddenly in hospital in Alicante, 

Spain on 30th Sep, aged 47, after taking ill on 

holiday in Benidorm - ironically a holiday to help 

him recover from the stresses of a hugely busy 

Festival and Fringe. His funeral took place at 

Warriston Crematorium on Wed 13th Oct and his 

life was celebrated by more than 200 family and 

friends. After the service everyone retired to the 

Newtown Bar to be joined by more of his friends. A 

special memorial event will be held in the near 

future, in Scott’s name - rumour has it that 

Topping and Butch have offered to headline a 

special fundraising event in Scottie’s name. Watch 

this space for details. Scott will be sorely missed 

by his colleagues in the NTB and by his son David, 

his mother and family. (Many kind thanks to 

Jimmy from the Newtown for this moving tribute)

DAMNED IF WE DO - FUCKED IF WE DON'T... 

In the last issue of ScotsGay, we published a piece by Anne McLaughlin with the word "fuck" in 

it. This was changed from “****” without reference to the writer. Ms McLaughlin informs us that 

"The word I was replacing was 'damn' but I thought even that might be offensive to some people 

which is why I put the asterisks. I don't have a problem with other people swearing but it is not 

really me.". ScotsGay finds the use of asterisks in this way insulting to the intelligence of our 

readers. It can also give rise to confusion amongst readers (and the editor) as to the intention of 

writers. If ScotsGay deems a word offensive, it simply isn't used! 

NOSTRA CULPA 

Apologies to Lou Hardless for failing to credit her for the Queer Ball photos we ran in Issue 99.

GLASGOW 

Ladies and Gentleman once more I have 

returned…….sorry for anyone expecting David 

Beckham etc to pick up the column but 

unfortunately for us all I’m far more accessible in 

every way so nae luck chuck you shall just have to 

make do and grin and bear it! Hope you are all in 

fine fettle in this freezing weather and still making 

it out and about, everywhere I’ve been has been 

busy… full of bloody cold people but busy so 

that’s a start! Sending a few words your way to get 

you warmed up….. 

This month there is a new night in Glasgow. 

Bears Party, after running in Edinburgh for the last 

three months is coming here! They will be at the 

Basura Blanca Club underneath the Brunswick 

Hotel in the city centre on Sat the 20th Nov from 

10.30pm-2am and the event is in aid of Gay Men’s 

Health so the organisers are making it free to get 

in but if people could fling some money in the 

bucket then it would be greatly received and wisely 

used! Dance music from the eighties until the 

noughties will be getting played with DJs Mishka 

and DJ Corky. Not forgetting there will be a raffle 

in aid of GMH so, you burly bunch of bears, go 

and have some furry fun! It’s a great cause and 

given the gossip from previous nights in 

Edinburgh I’m sure it will be a great 

night too.

Get the space filled in your calendars, 

gents! 

I was most delighted to receive a wee 

electronic mail from the eternally lovely and 

infamous Miss Cheri Treiffel this month to 

fill me in on the latest goings on at 

Scotland’s oldest gay bar, The Waterloo. 

The venue is now under new management 

and the team are, as always, working hard to 

keep all punters entertained! Since the 

aforementioned night won’t let me in, here’s 

where I intend on heading which FYI means you 

should be too!!!!!!!! Hallowe’en at the bar involves 

free giveaways, best costume prizes, toffee apples 

and big cash prizes on the Sat 30th Oct so that’s 

sounding good and on Sat 5th Nov they’re holding 

a charity fundraiser with all proceeds going to the 

Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice in memory 

of one of their regulars, Peter Macdonald who 

sadly died of cancer last year. The night which will 

be attended by stars from 

River City will be cabaret 

filled and hosted by Miss 

Cheri Treiffel herself (as if 

after hearing all of that 

you need any more 

reasons to go….). No 

excuses, everyone in 

attendance please! Or it 

shall be a case of SEE 

ME! And ye ken what 

I’m like with a drink in 

me! 

Also coming up on 

their social calendar, 

the Waterloo is still as 

caring as ever and 

running their annual 

World AIDS Day 

Fundraiser so they are 

looking for donations 

of quality items for 

their raffle and 

auction. As every 

man and his dog knows this 

is a cause personally very close to my own heart 

and surely to heavens we can all find something 

worth giving! My thinking cap is on and the old 

man’s credit card is getting out! 

Not forgetting every Sat night from 8pm 

means it’s karaoke time and fret not their notorious 

and ever popular Sundays with Cheri from 5pm is 

still running with the picture quiz, ‘open my box’ 

(oooh err!), Play Ya Cards Right and Bingo and in 

Miss Treiffel’s very own words “the usual shelf of 

shite”... Actually LOL’d to myself there. 

Speakeasy on John Street gets busier each 

time I stagger in and no wonder, the drink prices 

are AMAZING, hot staff, snazzy premises and 

delicious food with entertainment of 

some variety on every night of 

the week. I personally like to 

start my weekend off on a Thu 

(usually ends on Thu also…..go 

figure…..) because Queenie 

presents: ‘Wannabe’ with 

Vodka’n’mix/Btl Miller @ £1.25, 

Jagerbombs £1.95! Then DJ 

Shawn Roberts & Team TLC 

present 

‘Femmes:Hommes:Queens’. The 

biggest and best gay Thu night in 

town! The weekend kicks off there! 

If you haven’t been before then pop 

in, it’s a varied crowd in all aspects 

and I think that’s part of what 

makes it such a special and 

individual venue. 

Unfortunately all good things 

must come to an end so here it is 

folks… life is short so enjoy it! Even 

when it’s your round at the bar and 

I’m back on the champers! Hope to 

see you all soon and as always thank 

you for all comments and correspondence sent. 

You lot aren’t half as bad as I make out! Muchos 

fun and kisses. Ta ta for now x
