I received an e-mail from the Human Rights Campaign yesterday announcing that Cyndi Lauper's True Colors Tour will be back for a second round. Last year, the line-up included The Misshapes, The Gossip, The Dresden Dolls, Debbie Harry, Erasure, and, of course, Cyndi Lauper. This year, the line-up is as follows: Cyndi Lauper, The B-52's, Tegan and Sara, The Indigo Girls, Deborah Cox, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, Carson Kressley, Wanda Sykes, Rosie O'Donnell, Joan Armatrading, The Cliks, Regina Spektor, and more to be added in the future.

The HRC e-mail also touted an "Exclusive HRC Ticket Pre-Sale" starting Monday, March 10th at 10a.m. If you are on their mass-mailing list, you will receive instructions on how to purchase tickets at the pre-sale Monday morning. Since I know you hate spam, I'll update this post with instructions on how to purchase these "exclusive" tickets as soon as I receive the e-mail.

Last year's show at the Borgata in Atlantic City was a smashing good time, literally. Two of my friends got so smashed that they almost got bounced for rowdy behavior, and none of us were able to make Perez Hilton's after-party due to severe levels of intoxication. I encourage all of you to go this year (and to go easy on the cocktails)
