ART PHAG: Staying clean and Black Eyed Peas

Every Thursday, we give you this week's LGBTQ to-do list.

— You may take your two hour primp sessions for granted before you hit the clubs, or even the grocery for that matter, but others don't have the same luxury. To help spruce up the streets, the LGBT Alliance of Students Organized for Health (LASOH) is throwing a hygiene kit donation drive for homeless and housing-insecure LGBTQ youth at Q Lounge (1234 Locust St., 215-732-1800) tonight from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. They're asking folks to donate travel-sized toiletry products like soap, shampoo/conditioner and deodorant. Those who donate two or more items at the door will receive a wristband for all night drink specials. You might as well stay and drink, it took you long enough to get ready for it.

— Grindr is the biggest thing to sweep the gay community since Cher straddled that spotted stallion in the video for "Half Breed." On Fri., Feb. 26th at 10 p.m. Q Lounge (1234 Locust St., 215-732-1800) is getting in on the action with their first official Grindr party. General Manager John Caputo says the free meet and greet will feature yellow Grindr themed drinks, shot boys to gawk at and jams by DJ Chris Udoh. But come on, are you really going to notice everything that's going on with your eyes glued to the phone all night long? My guess is that the hookups will start instantly, so get there early to start grinding on your favorite hottie — he's only zero feet away.

— I'm a little annoyed at Voyeur (1221 St. James Pl., 215-735-5772) because they won't announce their line-up, but they're touting a DJ set by "members of the Black Eyed Peas" for their Official After Show Party following the Peas show on Wed., Mar. 3rd. It sounds suspicious, but I think the $20 entrance fee is worth the surprise. If it's not Fergie or Will.I.Am, there will still be great music to bump to and a buttload of drinks to drown your sorrows away if you pay all that money just to see one of those other two people. Don't get me wrong, they're just as talented, but you know the 'mos are dying to see Fergalicious and all her lovely lady lumps.
