HOT NEWS

I'm hearing rumors that there is a BIG statewide leathermen's gathering coming to San Diego in February. As soon as I have the locked-down details, I will post them. Men from Southern California, Northern California (and everywhere in between) might be bringing their geared-up selves down to our town.

Why?  Because San Diego's Tribe has become legendary for its brotherhood, cooperation, and successes. I'm guessing that these out-of-towners are hungry for some of what we easily take for granted, and they want to soak in it and bring some home.

Being a Tourist Town, it prevails upon us to make these men feel VERY welcome. Based upon our history, these lucky visitors won't be able to believe their good fortune. There will be a lifetime's worth of new, deep friendships being formed, and someday every city's Tribe will be as congenial, affectionate, trusting and vibrant as San Diego's!

The huge, wildly wonderful BELT Party  is STILL ON for October 27th at 10PM, but it has been moved across the street to the FLAME at 3780 Park Blvd. 

I love this venue - It has a back room and bar, which features a very nice stage for kinky demos (flogging, paddling, bondage, mummification, and so much more) performed by FMSD's new PLAYERS sub-group all night. We WILL be interviewing new applicants for the PLAYERS list (Tops and bottoms, all experience-levels), so bring your A-game and be PLAYFUL!

Read the review of the last BELT party, and imagine yourself in the middle of everything, full of joy and brotherhood. This will be the fourth one, and they just keep getting better and better each time, because the team that puts it together is HUGE, and all of us are interconnected as playmates, brothers and friends for the rest of our lives.
