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

' Face it: No matter how much you complain about holiday music, there's still a tiny part of you that becomes giddy when someone strikes up 'Jingle Bells.' On Fri., Dec. 11 at 8 p.m., you can join the chorus when the Traverse Arts Project holds the first annual Tappy Holidays: Holiday Celebration and Sing-Along ($5-$10) at the Arch Street United Methodist Church (55 N. Broad St.). Organist T. Desiree Hines will be there playing traditional carols, like 'Joy to the World,' as well as more secular tunes, such as 'O' Christmas Tree.' Also featured will be readings of 'The Night Before Christmas' by Bob Hitchen and 'The Nativity Story' by 2009 Barrymore nominee Keith Conallen and singer Amanda Damron.' But don't shy away if you celebrate something other than Christmas. Hines says the diversified program will also include traditional stories and songs for those who celebrate Hanukkah and Kwanzaa. Stick around for the free reception afterward to re-wet your pipes, because I know you'll still be singing when you get home.

' On Sat., Dec. 12 at 9 p.m., Sisters Nightclub (1320 Chancellor St., 215-735-0735) will host their Sinful Christmas Party. This lesbian dance bonanza will feature a mix of Top 40 dance and hip-hop by DJ Steve Singer and exotic dance performances by the sexy Sirens, who promise to be decked out in provocative holiday attire. Also, for those looking to turn on some holiday heat, pick up an arousing package at the Party Gals Naughty Toy Table. There's no telling how many goodies, or girlies, you may take home.

' The wacky Dumpsta Players are up to their old shenanigans again, and this time they're trashing Bucks County's two biggest douchebags in their newest show, Jon & Kate + HATE in Outer Space. The curtain goes up on Wed., Dec. at 11 p.m. at Bob & Barbara's (1509 South St., 215-545-4511) and it only costs $1.99. DJ K-Tell and the rest of the Players will take Jon & Kate on a tragic adventure that includes interactions with the Octomom, Regis Philbin and some alien leader named Nueva Gabor. (Read more in this week's Agenda section.) Don't ask me, just go see it!
