...club nights, panel discussions and a sex toy party are among them. For now, though, Gaypril has begun with a cheery, supportive whisper. Despite the absence of “White Room,” this Open Mic night seems an awful lot like those of yore. Rather than being disappointed, though, let’s be encouraged.

In fact, the only constant is Juvenile’s uncanny flair...
