...mostly it's about sex. The adrenaline-charged opening begins in a pheromone-drenched disco on Pittsburgh's gay mecca, Liberty Avenue, then hurtles at 200 beats a minute into an outre lust scene between 29-year-old rake Brian (Gale Harold) and Justin (Randy Harrison), a kid of 17--count 'em, 17--years. No conveniently arranged sheets, no angst, no kisses shot from the back: in 10 hot minutes, QAF opens the closet of gay TV sexuality and chucks in a neon stick of dynamite...

...last week's Country Music Association Awards, where the contemporary DIXIE CHICKS took home four trophies while traditionalists George Strait and Alan Jackson won the Vocal Event category for Murder on Music Row, a duet that condemns country's pop trend with lines like "The almighty dollar and the lust for worldwide fame slowly killed tradition and for that someone should hang." Spooky. Making light of it all is a song called I'd Give My Right Nut to Save Country Music, sung with deadpan earnestness by C.M.A. Single of the Year winner LEE ANN WOMACK and the lesser-known...
