This Heav3n is a genreless, genderless party for the next generation of club kids
LA TimesWhen you get to the gates of heaven, down a dark alley under the 10 Freeway and past a bacon-wrapped hot dog cart, there is no judgment. This isn’t the heaven that Lulo Logan — who usually goes just by their first name, “like Cher” — learned about while growing up in a traditional Catholic Mexican family in Temecula. When Lulo says “weird friends,” they mean the fabulous, and in some cases spooky, party people who fill Heav3n every month, especially the 200-plus regulars who consistently max out the guest list. One of the night’s performers, Abhora, a “drag monster” and contestant on Shudder’s “The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula,” debuts a terrifying new costume featuring their signature pointy nose and sharp faux teeth. Tru “XOXO” Padolsky, a tattoo artist with a shop in downtown L.A., calls Heav3n a staple in Los Angeles nightlife and comes for the eclectic performances across genres.
