The Pittsburgh Queens

Drag these days in Pennsylvania is pretty big business in Philadelphia, Harrisburg and in the steel city of Pittsburgh. Back before I hung it up, it was rare to hear of any drag scene in the steel city. At the time I do believe Harrisburg was putting the queens out. But since it's revival, don't be fooled. Pittsburgh is right up there now representing the art of drag with a bevy of beauties and glamour pusses.....filled with talents and originality. And Thanks to Miss Sharon Needles it's really on the map now. All of these queens can be seen at various clubs in the city as well as Philadelphia and other cities in Pennsylvania..........

  2. A thousand years ago (in the early eighties), I did the scene in Pittsburgh. Back then there was a lot of bad drag going on, but not much show...

    Cleveland/Akron was much more fun back then as it was more camp & less pass.
