There are leather men in the new movie ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’

Leave a comment

Has anyone been to see the new movie out now about Freddie Mercury and the rock band Queen? I went to “Bohemian Rhapsody” yesterday, and I thought it was really good!

About halfway though, Freddie goes to a gay club that looks like it was probably The Mineshaft. In one scene there is a guy in a leather hood being led around on a leash. If you blink you might miss it. Freddie also has many male companions in the movie, many of whom are shown in leather biker jackets. There’s lots of facial hair, too.

If you go to see the movie, be sure to stay for the closing credits, over which real archival footage of the real Queen performing is shown, Freddie Mercury is wearing leather pants and jacket, and a Mineshaft T-shirt!

Fucking hot if you ask me!

And he’s gagged too. This catchy tune is the latest from Cazwell. The bed bondage starts at approximately 1:40:

When the Whip Comes Down

1 Comment

Some interesting lyrics in this Rolling Stones song:

WHEN THE WHIP COMES DOWN

(M. Jagger/K. Richards)

Yeah, mama and papa told me 
I was crazy to stay

I was a fag in New York

I was gay in L.A.

So I saved my money

And I took a plane

Wherever I go they treat me the same

When the whip comes down (4X)

I’m going down 53rd Street and they’re spitting in my face

I’m learning the ropes

Yeah I’m learning a trade

The east river truckers are churning with trash

I make so much money that I’m spending so fast

When the whip comes down (4X)

When the shit hits the fan I’ll be sitting on the can

When the whip comes down

Yeah, some called me garbage

When I was sleeping on the street

I never roll

And I never cheat

I’m filling a need

I’m plugging a hole

My mama’s so glad 
I ain’t on the dole

When the whip comes down (4X)

(Yeah, go ahead check it out)

Yeah, baby, when the whip comes down

When the whip comes down

(I’ll be running this town, I’ll tell you)

When the shit hits the fan

I’ll be sittin on the can

 

A couple other Stones songs also have BDSM themes:
