FetishCon

[Marquis]

Hey everyone,

Sorry for posting this so late and also for my general absence as of late. I've been working around the clock, but hopefully will have time to check in here more often soon.

FetishCon is the nation's premier event for fetish models, photographers, producers and of course, fans/groupies. It was held in New York for a few years, but has been held in Tampa, Florida for the last 3 years and is growing every year. You can check out the website at www.FetishCon.com

I've never been before, but I've been invited to speak at this years, so I'll be going up. If anyone else is in the Tampa area this weekend and feels like showing up to see the various vendors, lectures, exhibits, models and of course, your moderator, it would be great to see you!

Hopefully you will devote your time at the podium to turning the youth to the dark side and not on some redundant shit like "how to tie bondage knots" or whatever.

I was planning on attending this year but that fell through. What topic are you going to be speaking on? Are the girls going to be going with you?

 

[unfoundiamond]

I might go.

I might go with a friend...

Made's got a good question,

What will you be speaking about?

I just left the Hyatt from the 14th Convergence, and when the hotel manager guy came up to tell us about the consuite he said there's gonna be a bunch of nuns in the hotel at the same time,

I can't make this shit up.

Anyways...

I wanna go, but plans have a funny way of screwing up.

FetishCon was awesome.

The presentation went well and I got a good reaction from the audience which was nice. The hotel was packed with kinksters, and probably the best looking crowd I'd ever seen. The eye candy was nothing short of spectacular and I even got a couple "hey, I know you! You're Marquis from TruFetish, I read your articles!" which was really cool.

lol. it was actually pretty entertaining. they weren't nuns, but it was a women's christian convention. hysterical tho, because a group of them came out to the pool for one of the parties, and was ready to buy a one day pass at the end of the night. lol. they were great. fetishcon was fabulous! it was my first real one. i went for like a half a day lastyear, but this year as a model. it was great! so many amazing people!

Oh wow- I didn't know about this before now- I'll have to look into going next year!

Thanks for the info!

thank you!

 

[Homburg]

thank you!

Quite welcome. I found the pic that you posted to keep folks "awake" to be particularly compelling. Kudos to both you and the photographer on that one

 

[AlecBond]

Anyone else in for this year? We're booked and ready!

 

[Marquis]

These things sneak up on me so fast.

I will be there, and probably presenting again.

I'll also be presenting at Art Undressed, an erotic art show in Miami next week. I did a post last year but I've been outta my game a bit recently.

a bunch of my tribe was down in your area recently at the fetish factory party... do you go to that one?

I do.

Which party?

 

[Betticus]

Oh man, I'd love to go to this...

You'll have to be more specific than that. Tampa (actually, Tampa/South Florida as a whole) seems to be almost never-ending with large fetish events.

It's treating me alright, this coach could be comfier but y'know, I'm not one to complain.

I'm super hoping to make it out to a tribe party ASAP when I get back. A month without any kink whatsoever? I'm literally jumping off the walls in anticipation of the next party.

Aaand I'm getting back in town on the 8th, so, soon!

Oh and on the theme of large fetishy parties... (ok so these are more BDSM events, more play, less "S&M" Stand & Model)


Anyone going to the following events on the east (more northern) coast:

Dark Odyssey Leather Retreat

TESFest

The Floating World

I'm most definitely maybe going to TESFest! Maybe Floating World but that's maybe in the 'most likely not' sense of the word.

ETA: Wow, does that make any sense? If not, the I-promise-I'm-not-drunk-posting translation is that yes, I'm probably going to TESFest, and I might go to Floating World but most likely won't make it.
