Seattle, WA – Yesterday I sat down with Dr Dick for a podcast interview as part of his Sex Advice with an Edge series. You’ll recall my boy Chris Yosef did an interview with the Doc a few months ago and I was called out to add my take on this thing of ours. In this first part of our interview we discuss: the need for a body double, or at least a cock double; the Pacific Northwest as a hotbed of perversion; my on-screen persona being the same as my off-screen persona; how I got my start in the ‘art film’ industry; workshops Derek da Silva and I present together; my mentors; my collaboration with Titan Media and the new Rough line; the challenges, opportunities and future of porn; the bareback phenomenon; and my essay A More Nuanced Position. As the summary of the podcast from Dr Dick states… Read the rest of this entry »

Seattle, WA – Landing in Seattle was like a return to reality. Often when I fly out to attend Chicago Hellfire Club (CHC) events, especially those with my boy Derek Da Silva, I feel as though I’ve escaped… escaped from the harsh realities of the day-to-day; escaped from the ever present judgment of those who don’t understand; escaped from every type of relationship except the type of relationship in which you would expect love and respect; escaped… I put my boy Derek in his place. We had an awesome three-way with Douggerz, his partner of more than a decade. I shared time with my brother Odie and Cousin Rob. I had a photo shoot to document my current physical state. I was pampered more than one would expect. And I ran some much over-due scenes. To give you I glimpse into all of these things… Read the rest of this entry »

Chicago, IL – In just a few weeks, I’ll be in Vancouver BC to judge the 2010 Mr Leatherman Vancouver contest. This year’s contest marks the official return of Leather to Vancouver, and I feel especially honored to have been asked by Stéphane Donaldson to be a part of the event and thrilled to help select the next leather titleholder for Vancouver. The other members of the judging panel include: Head Judge, Nikitas Chondroyannos from Vancouver BC; Western Canadian Leather boy 2009, David from Calgary AB; Western Canadian Leather Sir 2009, Jonathan from Calgary AB; Rubbout Vancouver’s Mitch Kenyon from Vancouver BC; Mr. Rubber Vancouver 2010, Paul Wood from Vancouver BC; and Mike Zuhl from Pittsburgh PA. My boy Chris Yosef and Priape’s Michael Schelt from Vancouver BC will serve as Tally Masters for the contest. While in town, I’ll also be presenting a Shibari Bondage Workshop Saturday afternoon and a Fisting Demo with my boy Chris Yosef later that night. There is no doubt in my mind that this will be a fun-filled weekend of events and community building. Now, for all the details… Read the rest of this entry »

Seattle, WA – The first M4MKink.com’s Gear party is tonight at the Cuff Complex. This will be a regular occurrence on the third Saturday of each month. To help kick it off, I’ve recruited my scene partner from Folsom Maneuvers, Adam Knox (pictured right) and some friends to perform a little rope bondage and rigging demonstrations. After all, the rope kit I’ve put together does contain my Gear of choice. The demos will start off the evening from 9 pm through 10 pm, when DJ Mattstands will begin spinning the beats you’ll be dancing to throughout the night. Now, for all the details, access to a VIP card and chance to win an autographed copy of Folsom Maneuvers… Read the rest of this entry »

Seattle, WA – Folsom was a challenge this year. It was a full working week, plus. Between flying in on Monday and then out again the following Monday, we shot three scenes for the Rough line, attended several Folsom related parties, had brunch with Brian Mills, who heads Titan’s production department, and dinner with the studio executives, performed at Magnitude, appeared at the Titan booth at the Folsom Street Fair and conducted a series of meetings relating to the Rough line. In the middle of all of this, Folsom Maneuvers was released, and, as I mentioned in my previous entry, my local boy here in Seattle was rushed to the hospital with a serious infection. While at times it may have felt a little overwhelming, I was in good company the entire time. Our Titan crew for Folsom included (pictured from left to right): Will Parker, JR Matthews, Chris Yosef, myself, Derek da Silva and Francois Sagat. Read the rest of this entry »

Seattle, WA – It’s been a very busy few weeks and I’ve been heads down and centrally focused for the past several days, but last Tuesday Titan Media released the third installment in the new ROUGH line of fetish/Sm features, Bound and Beaten and I would be lapse if I didn’t get it posted to the blog. Bound and Beaten continues our attempt to document contemporary BDSM through three vignettes set entirely in the woods of northern California. The players featured are real and the intensity of the play is heightened by the familiarity of the players and the varied levels of experience they have together.
Now, for my take on Bound and Beaten, a look behind the scenes courtesy of TitanMen.com, an excerpt from the Scene Breakdown for ROUGH. Bound and Beaten and more… Read the rest of this entry »

Toronto, ON – This past weekend, my boy Derek Da Silva and I have been in Toronto for the Mr Rubber Toronto Contest and the Church St Fetish Fair. Our friends at the Black Eagle sponsored our trip and one of our favorite people, Gloria served as our host for the weekend. Again we had a blast in Canada while exploring the local fetish/Sm scene. Once again Carlos and his staff at the Black Eagle were exceptionally good to us during our stay and the friends we made back in February made us feel reluctant to leave.

Montreal, QC – This weekend, my boy Derek Da Silva and I have been in Montreal for the annual Divers/Cite Festival 2009 celebrations. Our friend and current Mr International Rubber, Stéphane set up several opportunities for us to interact with the local fetish/Sm community and was our host for the weekend. We couldn’t be more grateful; we had an absolute blast. Friday night we did a meet & greet and a rope bondage demonstration at the Black Eagle. Saturday afternoon, we taught an introductory Shibari rope bondage class at the Black Eagle and then made an appearance at Priape to promote the new Rough line of fetish/Sm features I’m co-directing with Paul Wilde for Titan Media. Then we performed at K.L.U.B, the big leather, latex, uniform and bear fetish party Saturday night. Read the rest of this entry »

Seattle, WA – Up Your Alley, a leather street fair produced by Folsom Street Events (FSE), was held in San Francisco this past weekend. Dore, as many of us in the leather/Sm community commonly refer to the weekend of events, includes play parties hosted by the Men of Discipline and the 15 Association, the San Francisco Leather Daddy contest and various bar nights in addition to the official FSE sponsored events like the Bay of Pigs dance party and the street fair itself. While not as large an event weekend as Folsom, Dore attracts a devoted following of players from around the world. Read the rest of this entry »

Seattle, WA – Tonight is Sextanza, the monthly fetish/kink party, at the Re-bar sponsored by Scott Paul Designs and LeatherPost with DJ Sweet Chris Bell and DJ FauxFaux spinning funky electro house, rock, funk, and mash-up. I know that Everett from LeatherPost, Scott Paul and photographer, Redwoodsnaps, have been working hard to make this the night for all you kinky fuckers here in Seattle and tonight promises to be a blast. With nearly all the boys in town for Blood Sweat & Fear this weekend, I know I’m planning on one hell of a good time. My boys Timmy, Chris Yosef, Derek da Silva, his boy JC, our pup Element and many of our friends will be bringing our own special brand of down-and-dirty from about ten to midnight.
If you are in Seattle, come down and enjoy the festivities, but if not you can still join the fun because I’m running a Twitter Contest in conjunction with Sextanza. Here’s how it goes… Read the rest of this entry »
