SIR JET Joel Evan Tye for 2017
SIR JET!
Singer Joel Evan Tye aka Sir JET.
The mysterious and alluring gender-bending Sir JET aka Joel Evan Tye is a popstar like no other. With his super-hero body and love for skin tight costumes and anime, he is what has been referred to as “Nick Lachey meets Ziggy Stardust.” The online article “The Boy Who Talked Like a Girl,” is the story of JET’s childhood struggle with gender anxiety that lead him to become an agoraphobic mute for almost a decade to only rediscover his voice again at age 20 and become the man you see today.
JET’s mission in life is to help people who struggle with their identity and to encourage them to find their true selves by going within like he did. In addition to being referred to as the “Madonna Crotch” by Patti Stanger when he appeared on BRAVO’s last season of Millionaire Matchmaker, JET is also a heavily sought after model, including appearing on the boxes of LASC’s first line of underwear, and modeling for Mike Ruiz’s Pretty Masculine series a total of four times.
About 5 years ago, he did an EP, a collection of songs with themes based on concepts from his book I’m Enough: How to Live Life Like a Popstar and Find Your True Self in the Process
He explores many soul searching topics on his YouTube channel. Happiness; Depressions issues, Finding joy; Mending a broken heart, etc.
“I am a role-model for youth who are in need of a male celebrity who embodies the masculine and feminine energies they wish to express themselves. The idea is that the struggle we have with equality in our society started when somewhere along the road of life we were taught to feel unequal. I wish to help people see that the path to equality starts from within, coming to terms with the male and female energies we all possess.
He will ONLY be doing a meet and greet at Six Flags – he will perform at 1:30 AM @ CHARLIES, the Official After Party.
(3726 N Broadway St, Chicago, IL 60613)

2017 NEW RIDE – THE JOKER!
NEW FOR 2017!
The Joker – FREE FLY coaster!
The ride will be the 15th coaster on the Gurnee theme park’s active roster. The 12-story Joker will be in Yankee Harbor, next to Great America’s 1992 entirely different version of Batman: The Ride.
Riders will proceed up a 90-degree lift hill and then “flip head-over-heels at least six times along the weightless journey.”
“Thrill seekers will experience exhilarating leaps and dives along a horizontal plane with unexpected drops as they tumble from one level to the next,” park officials said in the statement. “The wing seats amp up the pandemonium since riders will experience this wild adventure with no track above or below — just the sky, ground and plenty of sinister thrills.”
Ride specifications list the ride’s height as 109 feet, with vehicles reaching 38 mph and generating 2.8 G’s as they roll along for 50 seconds on more than 1,000 feet of track.
“The 4D Free Spin utilizes magnetic technology to induce and control spinning,” the S&S statement added. “These unique vehicles hold eight passengers seated in pairs, four on each side of the track. The three layers of vertically stacked track feature speed bumps and two beyond-vertical raven drops.”
SOUNDS AWESOME!
Six Flags Removes Confederate Flags
After 56 years, Six Flags will no longer fly the Confederate flag over its theme parks
“At Six Flags Over Texas we strive every single day to make people happy and to create a fun, thrilling and safe family friendly experience for our guests,” park spokeswoman Sharon Parker said in an email. “We always choose to focus on celebrating the things that unite us versus those that divide us. As such, we have changed the flag displays in our park to feature American flags.”
They should fly the Rainbow Flag now, to show Diversity!
New for 2016! 4D interactive thrill ride, JUSTICE LEAGUE
Six Flags Great America will debut a brand new 4D interactive thrill ride in May 2016, JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis. This new adventure will feature state-of-the-art technology, high-tech video graphics, and a full-sensory gaming experience that puts you right in the middle of the action.
After wandering the unbelievable 22,000 square foot Hall of Justice, you’ll board your unique twisting six-passenger vehicle. Armed with a laser stun gun, you’ll travel through a series of incredible scenes around the city of Metropolis, interacting with life-like animatronic characters, 3D animated images, and 4D experiences like fire and fog to save your favorite super heroes from the evil villains. This adventurous ride also features one of the first-ever virtual loops and real-time gaming elements to compete against other riders.
Everywhere you look, state-of-the-art 4D imagery will draw you deeper into the adventure. Your unique transporter will take you piloting through a realistic 4D environment.
Can you thwart The Joker’s evil plan to infect the city with laughing gas? Only if you’re brave enough to join the JUSTICE LEAGUE Reserve Team!

It’s like a Fall Gay Pride Celebration with even MORE amusement and entertainment!”

This event is all ages and for LGBTQ people and their supporters. (Kiddieland is closed, so its not a good fit for very small children to attend). Its a private “buy out” event. Meaning the general public is not invited. Could they get in? Sure probably. But negativity is not acceptable and violators will be ejected from the event. We have never had a problem with this. This is safe place to be as you are. Six Flags does not post signs on bathrooms for gender neutrality…..however, at our event, all bathrooms are open for all transgender people. Use whichever one you feel comfortable with. This event does not condone gender policing of any kind.
