DJ Lemz can still vividly recall the mood that night, in January of 2020. “There was a really good energy in the air. It just felt really electric — like everyone was there having a good time,” says the promoter behind Bent, the 9:30 Club’s quarterly LGBTQ party. “I got hit really hard with the pandemic, so getting support from the community really helped a lot,” Lemz says. Two months later, he announced the Shaw venue would become the new home for the monthly LGBTQ party, formerly at Wonderland.
