[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just read Somebody To Love, a Freddie Mercury biography that matches up his career ascendancy and life with the AIDS epidemic. Fascinating. I said when I left the movie,  "He just happened to be at y the wrong place at precisely the wrong time." If he'd have lived a bit longer, the drugs might have saved him. So sad. I didn't realize what a lost generation of gay men that got hit so hard with it because I'm from the south and I don't think we had underground "scenes" like the did in NYC, SF and LA. It sounds like there were specific scenes like that where almost all the regulars were in lethal dart because of when it hit and how it spread.[/quote]

Well, you really were living under a rock.

Try Atlanta.  And then in my region there was a fairly vibrant Gay community which only got stronger as AIDS took hold.

And then lots of Gay men moved back from big cities to my hometown and region when the epidemic hit.  Ones who were sick and dying, and those who were healthy.[/quote]
