Chief Ike's was a humid, fetid, liquor-soaked nest of queer dancehounds last night and we loved every second of it.

The She.Rex DJs spun with a vengeance, as usual. In case you missed out, here's a rundown of the evening's grooviest tunes.

 

5. Don't Bring Me Down (Electric Light Orchestra)

Don't Bring Me Down
Don't Bring Me Down

This was an unexpected throwback to the classic rock radio stations of my blue-collar NH hometown. At the end of the night, when we were all soaked in sweat of unknown origin and spilled Natty Boh, this song fit the mood to perfection.

 

 

4. Still Not A Player (Big Pun)

Still Not A Player
Still Not A Player

Beyond the clever rhymes (we can park the Jeep / pump Mobb Deep / and just spark the leaf) and the tempting references to hot tubs and highly intelligent bachelorettes, I love this borderline-obese rapper's self-deprecating admission to being "big."

 

 

3. Every Heartbeat (Amy Grant)

Every Heartbeat
Every Heartbeat

Watching two genderqueers make out to a Christian rock song was just...priceless.

 

2. 212 (Azealia Banks)

212
212

Could this song be any queerer? Could anyone but Azealia Banks make a Mickey Mouse sweater look sexy? This song plays like four separate but equally kickass dance jams in one.

 

 

1. Sk8er Boi (Avril Lavigne)

Sk8er Boi
Sk8er Boi

This is probably the most popular song ever to hit mainstream radio while specifically calling out the boi community. Bravo, Avril. Love the cargo pants.

When Christina isn't writing for WTGG, she's assassinating dance floors in purple high-tops, causing bike accidents, taming the wilderness, practicing her beatboxing and begging Erykah Badu to cast her in a music video. A big, 90's-inspired ball of sass, Christina's greatest mission - driven by a dilettante interest in science - is to try everything once (maybe twice) and find out how the world works. She's the queirdest girl you know.
