TitanMen's Folsom Undercover Set to Tear Up Folsom Street Fair
TitanMen is pleased to announce the official line-up of performers and events surrounding the release of its newest Folsom Series Leather/Fetish film, Folsom Undercover, during Folsom Street Fair and Leather Week. TitanMen exclusive performers François Sagat, Dean Flynn, Alex Baresi, Dirk Jager, Diesel Washington, Rick van Sant, Eduardo, Chad Manning and Tony Buff will be appearing live; they will be joined by TitanMen Derek da Silva, Frank Philipp, Arpad Miklos, Marco Blaze, Markus Ram, Dominic Sol and more! Legendary director Brian Mills, the genius behind Folsom Undercover, will also be making special appearances throughout the weekend.
Kicking off Leather Week is the sold-out Folsom Street Fair 25th Anniversary Leather Gala. Attendees will celebrate the 25th Folsom Street Fair with glamour and style at the one time-only Formal Leather Gala Dinner. This special event is scheduled for Saturday, September 20th at The Regency Center's Sutter Room. Gourmet dinner, open bar and an amazing performance by the legendary Joan Rivers are all included. VIP tickets holders will receive a copy of Folsom Undercover in their gift bags, before the film is released to the public.
TitanMen is honored to be a Presenting Sponsor for Magnitude, the official leather fetish dance party of the Folsom Street Fair. Join us Saturday night, September 27th, at the Regency Center from 10pm to 4am. TitanMen Dean Flynn, Eduardo, Diesel Washington, Tony Buff, Derek da Silva and more will be performing live. Featuring DJ Paul Goodyear, this is the party of the Folsom Fair weekend! Dungeon space will be by Mr. S Leather. Tickets are available online at http://folsomstreetevents.org/shop/
And finally, join us Sunday, September 28th, at the Folsom Street Fair for the official release of Folsom Undercover! Continuing in the tradition of TitanMen's award-winning line of co-branded Folsom films, Folsom Undercover explodes with fetish fireworks. A private fraternity has businessmen living second lives, relieving their stress through sexual aggression as they indulge their deepest desires. Four scenes bring you more than 2 ½ hours of unforgettable action, half of it shot in the beautiful outdoors. Led by 11 stunning men, including TitanMen exclusives Tony Buff, Eduardo, Darius Falke, Dean Flynn, Dirk Jager and Rick van Sant, Folsom Undercover is the perfect fetish fantasy for fall. Get undercover and get off!
All the performers will be on-hand to meet their fans at the TitanMen/Naked Sword mega-booth at the corner of Folsom and Dore. They will all be signing free copies of the 2009 TitanMen calendar ($12.95 retail value) and each will be available for up close and personal photo-ops. The Folsom Undercover Hardcore Director's version DVD and Blu-ray™ disc will be for sale exclusively at the booth, and we will be offering special fair pricing on the entire line of award-winning TitanMen DVDs such as Folsom Prison, Folsom Filth, Folsom Leather, Fear and more.
NakedSword.com, the world's largest Video-on-Demand provider, will also be releasing and broadcasting Folsom Undercover exclusively on VOD. NakedSword.com is the exclusive VOD distributor of the entire co-branded TitanMen/Folsom Series of films.
At the booth, we'll also be introducing and offering the new TitanMen-branded line of high-quality personal lubricants, available for the first time in the USA. Designed by men for men, this high performance line of lubes is made in Germany to the strictest quality standards.
Look for the TitanMen/NakedSword booth directly in front of the Powerhouse bar at Folsom and Dore Alley. Directly across the intersection from the TitanMen/NakedSword booth will be the official TitanMen Tools booth by Doc Johnson, where the new line of TitanMen-branded and designed sex toys will be on display under the tagline, "Toys are for boys, Tools are for men!"
As producers of the best-selling gay leather and fetish films in the world, TitanMen is proud to be the sole gay studio Presenting Sponsor of the Folsom Street Fair and Magnitude, the largest leather and fetish event in the world. As part of the co-branded TitanMen/Folsom line of hardcore Leather/Fetish films, Folsom Undercover will be released under the "Exclusive Leather/Fetish Films of the Folsom Street Fair" banner. A portion of sales from the Folsom line of DVDs will be donated to the TitanMen/Folsom Fund, which support non-profit organizations specializing in gay men's health and education. In 2007, the fund donated over $25,000 to support non-profits benefiting gay men's health, and this year's goal is to top $30,000!
"As a leader within the gay adult industry, TitanMen is proud to be one of the largest studio contributors to non-profit organizations specializing in gay men's health and education," says Bruce Cam, Founder and CEO of Titan Media. "We have been able to show that protection and profit can go hand-in-hand by producing the best-selling gay adult films in the world while still maintaining a condom only/safer sex policy. The greatest gift we can give back to the community is the portrayal of safer sex and the use of condoms in our films. The value of a single human life is worth more than any amount of money we could ever contribute."
"TitanMen promotes fetish and leather play as safer and morally responsible alternatives to the growing trend of bareback within the gay adult entertainment industry," adds Keith Webb, Vice President of Titan Media. "By portraying and eroticizing safer sexual alternatives, TitanMen hopes to lead by example. While other studios promote and sell bareback films that portray and eroticize high-risk unprotected anal sex, TitanMen will hold firm in its steadfast commitment to the community by portraying and promoting condom-only and safer sex in its films."

I've posted the Press Release here in its entirety because it is another excellent example of why I am proud to be associated with Titan and pleased to be representing them to the best of my ability... we share common values. From individual character to social responsibility through production value and community action, these are the kind of people and the type of studio with whom I can ally myself and my talents.
The list of performers slated to appear reads like quite a reunion. I know almost all of these men personally and have worked with many of them on set. I'm excited to see them and the rest of the Titan crew again.
And you can bet on seeing Derek and I at the San Francisco Men of Discipline's play party on Friday night.
