XES Lounge, Chelsea, New York City, USA (with Honey LaBronx)

For a while in the early 2010s XES Lounge was THE place to be on a Monday night, where drag queens Frostie Flakes and Bob the Drag Queen (who, at the time was going by the name Kitten Withawhip) hosted their show 'Sisters?', winning crowds over with their ramshackle charm. In the crowd every week was Honey La Bronx, vegan drag queen, LGBTQ rights activist, host of the Big Fat Vegan Radio podcast and Bob's drag daughter. We caught up to discuss the pull of Manhattan, why it's not a good idea to take your tap shoes to the club, and how XES Lounge provided a sense of community and home.
