Wishing You a Mary Xmas: The Sword Holiday Music Panel
As Andy Warhol once
enthused about Coke (we mean the soda, fiends): it’s the same whether you’re a
bum, the President, or Liz Taylor-money can’t buy you a better one and it
always tastes the same. We suppose we could say that about holiday music as
well; no matter how pressed your
body, nor how big your dick, nor how many guest lists you’re on, you’ve still
got the same schmaltz every December-or so it would seem.We asked a few of
our favorite resident pervs about their favorite holiday music.
Their shirts are unbuttoned, their hair is moussed, and their default expression is “Fierce!” They may not tap dance, but the post-Will-and-Grace era has our reality TV schedules filled with stereotypical re-imaginings of actual homosexuals so predictable in their gayface that even 
News that Cal/OSHA, the government agency which monitors and enforces workplace safety and health, had been snooping around a Naughty America shoot sent ripples through the porn industry this week, sending gay porn producers in particular into a frenzy.
Zach Sire can’t believe that he gets paid to write about porn stars, but is more than happy to do so because how else would be pay for his Jägermeister and his addiction to porn? (Actually, he doesn’t have to pay for porn anymore since he started editing The Sword). In 2007, he graduated journalism school in Southern California and moved to New York where he thought he’d “make it big.” That didn’t happen. So, he moved back to Southern California and lived on his drag queen friend Jewels’ couch. After suffering(!) through odd jobs in advertising and at print publications, he finally found his home blogging here at The Sword. He’s happy now.
