Seattle, WA –- Last night was the show for NW Sash Bash followed by the Extreme Play Party, both hosted by GLPW. My brothers, Gene and Odie pulled together the show and I MC’d. The show itself was cabaret-style with performance pieces, live auctions, introductions of current title-holders and raffles.
The performance pieces included Derek locked in a cage while I worked the microphone, Odie and Gene mummifying Rich (photo right), a flogging by Russell Harmon, rigging featuring my boy Jeff and a fantasy performed by US Daddy and Daddy’s boy, Erik and Earl (respectively).
All the events this weekend were fairly intimate gatherings and the show was no exception. While the audience was small, the enthusiasm and generosity was anything but. Our charity this year was Camp Ten Trees, a non-profit summer camp in the Pacific Northwest featuring a week for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning (LGBTQ) youth and their allies, and a week for children of LGBTQ families.
Since our sponsors covered all our expenses, all the proceeds raised throughout the weekend will go to support this worthy charity. Once again Bear Leather Works, the Cuff Complex and Dog House Leathers have made positive contributions to our community and for that I am personally thankful.
Derek, Jeff and I went back to my place after the show to decompress a bit before the play party. We had a couple cocktails, listened to music, talked and fooled around, laughing the entire time. I know it seems too mundane to even mention here, but honestly it took a play party to pull us away we were enjoying our time alone together so much.
I was happy we went to the play party though. I got in two solid scenes, one with each of the boys. Derek and I hadn’t done our dynamic suspension scene here in Seattle and several of my friends that were in the dungeon had asked to see it, so we acquiesced to the requests. The rigging went smoothly and faster than the last time we did it in December. It still amazes me to watch him move in the rigging; it’s quite the sight (photo left). While there is a part of me that would have liked to do a heavier scene, I’m glad we did the suspension since we’ll be performing it as a demo at CLAW in April and this was probably the last time we’d get the opportunity to practice. Not to mention we have a shoot coming up in a couple of days.
The second scene with Jeff was spectacular; his first flogging. Free standing against a rack, naked except for his boots, I took after him with the Buffalo hide flogger. Alternating through the back, buttocks, thighs and controlled wraps to the front torso (please note I wrote ‘controlled wraps’) I worked him over. His reactions were beautiful to behold and as easy to read as if we had been playing for a year or more. I brought him to the point of breaking and back again as Derek sat on the floor and watched, his dick growing hard as he took in Jeff’s experience. The shudders came. Jeff’s entire body shook uncontrollably, the convulsions marking his limits. I have him count out ten more lashes, each building in intensity. He takes them like the butch little fuck he is.
Derek joined us on the floor afterward. The three of us huddled together in the middle of the dungeon then soon after in bed.

Seattle, WA –- We got off to a late start on the NW Sash Bash Education Series this afternoon but even help from my adopted boy Rich and his boy Steven couldn’t stave off mother nature. As soon as we got set-up it started to rain and as Derek ran the first needle in his demo the hale started falling. I don’t mean little pellets either; this was a fingernail-sized hale. We were fine continuing until the thunder and lightning. Given the fact we were working under double stack metal scaffolding, I had to call the scene.
It was a cluster fuck to say the least. But, as my brother Odie likes to say, ‘It is what it is.’ If you top scenes frequently enough you know they don’t always go as planed and when shit happens you’ve got two choices. You can call it quits or you can improvise, adapt and overcome. The picture (left) was taken just before we had to move the event inside.
Because there are no hard points in the Cuff dance bar we had to cancel my Shibari suspension demo and time constraints after the move precluded replacing it with another demo but Russell Harmon was able to deliver a highly educational presentation on advanced flogging techniques and there was a well-attended panel discussion on bootblacking.
Next two stops tonight: NW Sash Bash Cabaret and the Extreme Play Party.

Seattle, WA –- Derek arrived yesterday morning and Jeff joined us shortly thereafter. I couldn’t have asked for a better initial exchange. The physical attraction between the two boys was immediately palpable… a good sign. We broke bread. We had sex. We talked. It was easy and enjoyable.
This was important to me. Derek wears my collar of commitment; there is a special bond between us even though we live two thousand miles apart. I have no boys in collars of consideration and this is only the second time Jeff has worn my scene collar, one I purchased especially for him. I have grown extremely found of Jeff over the course of the past several months and I am ready to invest more in the relationship and perhaps take it further. I know from past experience that this would be very difficult if animosity, discomfort or jealousy overshadowed those efforts, but my observations thus far seem to suggest that that will not be the case.
We attended the NW Sash Bash Meet & Greet last night and then went out to the Cuff. At the Meet & Greet the boys made themselves of service to our guests at this semi-private event by keeping the buffet and bar stocked while getting to know each other better. They are both so good with people and seemed to work well together. As I would mingle with the people I knew from around the country and Canada I would steal glances of the two of them chatting or smiling at one another.
Later at the Cuff, the three of us hung out with the crew and danced until we decided my apartment would be a better venue for the progression of things.

Seattle, WA –- This weekend, Northwest Sash Bash comes to Seattle. The weekend will be filled with events, beginning with a Meet & Greet Friday evening; includes a tour of the city underground, education series, show and extreme play party on Saturday and concludes with a brunch Sunday morning.
It’s going to be a very special weekend for me. Not only do I get to see my friends from across the Pacific Northwest, two amazing boys will be joining me. Derek is flying in from Chicago and Jeff, the local boy I’ve been courting for several months, has agreed to join us. This will be their first opportunity to meet and I’m confident they’re going to hit it off.
In addition to assisting me throughout the weekend, both boys will be featured in the Shibari demos we will present as part of the education series and Derek will be presenting a workshop/seminar on advanced needle play. You can join us at the Cuff on Saturday from 3 to 6 pm for this series of educational workshops that will also include a presentation on flogging techniques by Russell Harmon.
I’ve also been given the honor (read: been drafted) to serve as your Master of Ceremonies for the show Saturday night, so expect a spectacle. For more information, visit the Northwest Sash Bash website.
Sidebar: Check in tomorrow for my Buff Enough Recommendation of the Week.
