The Washington Post is offering its support for the gay left in its "Style on the Go" page, endorsing the Human Rights Campaign’s True Colors concert Saturday night in Washington: "Carson Kressley [of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy] hosts, Cyndi Lauper and the B-52s are the headliners, and Regina Spektor and Tegan and Sara are the nod to the new generation of music in this Human Rights Campaign fundraiser tonight at DAR Constitution Hall. Ticket prices are steep, but this bill includes three acts that have sold out shows in the last year or so (Spektor, the B-52s, and Tegan and Sara) and this way, your money goes to a good cause rather than scalpers. $75 and $125. Doors open at 5:30 pm."
The tour’s website explains: "The goal of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (GLBT) equality is at the heart of True Colors. From day one, the tour has sought to raise awareness about the discrimination the GLBT community still faces and raise significant funds for the organizations that work everyday on their behalf."
The website also promotes that Lauper will appear live in concert on ABC’s Good Morning America on Saturday, June 13, no doubt to promote the True Colors Tour. NBC promoted Lauper and the tour last year.
