We put this warning on each newsletter but remember that venues do not have expanding walls and for comfort and safety sometimes we close before the stated time and put the dreaded sign on the door CHOCKERS. The Mardi Gras Recovery traditionally is a party of high demand. Don’t get angry; get even by turning up early!
Hot
yet Warm – Chee Lam Mardi Gras Recovery Thank you Grant for opening your oasis, yes there was a babbling brook right in the middle of Surry Hills! It was more a “pond” party than the pool party some had envisaged! We stretched it to 230 guys before closing the door at 6:40pm. But the space worked well. Several show stopping moments amazed the new comers, one was the beautiful muscle stud, Vassal from Jordan, in the sling getting fucked by the hot guy who then strapped glow sticks to either side of his cock (that’s one way of keeping it hard!), put his hands behind his head and put on the show of the year. Visiting from a country where hands and heads are summarily removed for just being gay, no wonder Vassal enjoyed his Mardi Gras experience. Mikey, Raymond and Cliff H, Phillip R, Malcolm and Brett did the mail out. Kell, Peter M, Kell, Rod, Mikey and Dominic manned the door and later Phillip. Bob organised the queue which at one stage stretched around the corner. Malcolm our logistics expert, organised the shopping with Brett and manned the bar with Blair and Brett. Cliff H topped up glasses. Marick, Aaron, Nigel, Argy, Tim Dyce and Matt D helped with the clothes check. Grant worked very long and hard to get his space into a minimalist décor, helped by Phillip, Kell, and Greg from Melbourne. We welcomed Al from NYC, Jason and Phillip from the Brisbane RED group, so many guys up from Melbourne and lots of Italians for some reason were attracted by Matthew Huxtable’s spoof of the Mardi Gras poster in his invitation design. Thank you also to Paul D and Tala who hosted a BBQ earlier in the week for all those who worked the Underwear Party. |

Discrimination Our model is that when you go on the permanent mailing list gets invitation rights and few ever need counseling, when bringing guests, as to what is hot and what is not. Occasionally we have to take someone aside and quietly ask, “What possessed you to invite HIM!?!?!?”, but not very often, fortunately. I guess it is the phwooaahhh factor in play, as there is always plenty of eye candy at MEN parties. We achieve this quality by neither discriminating on the basis of race (au contraire some of us a quite partial to cross fertilisation), nor age, cock size, nor HIV status. Whilst limits may work for the clientele of some other groups, we at MEN have opted for inclusion over exclusion and that works for us big-time. |
