Anyway, an enormous THANK YOU for the unlimited patience of my Aiden Shawequse BF who not ony lent me his Mac to use but also gave me space (and more patience) to mourn the loss of a lot of personal information. For regular readers of my online Journal, you may remember when I bought the machine in spring 2005 and it's demise is giving me a few thoughts as to how far I've come since then, and so naturally I feel a Journal entry coming on which will be posted later this week at www.willclarkworld.com

 

Anyway, on a brighter note, if you're like me, you look forward to going to Roseland towards the end of March every year, wearing some leather gear and dancing shirtless (and for some of you, pantsless) with 8,000 of your closest friends. I am of course talking about the Black Party produced by the Saint at Large folks, the annual 15 - 16 hour dance party that celebrates the spring equinox in a pagan ritual of dance, leather, sex and great music spun by the worlds leading DJs (including my pal and former Porn Idol spinner, Drew G) featuring live performances by an array of porn stars, go go guys and just plain freaks (and I mean that as a compliment because there are still those of us in the community that thinks being freaky is cool).

 

Each year I hear the same thing - "I waited til the last minute thinking that since it's being held at Roseland, how could it sell out?" but it does buddy and don't be one of those poor sad fellas running around Chelsea the day before scrambling to get a ticket like a 12 year old girl trying to score a ticket to a Hannah Montana concert. Just do it now and you know, plan ahead (and spend the money you'll save on extra cockrings cuz you'll need 'em!). Tickets are on sale now and besides, oh yeah, I know a way for you to knock $10 off of the ticket price.. you can tell 'em that WILL sent ya. literally. Go to the Saint At Large website at www.saintatlarge.com  or directly to this link: Will's Black Party code to go to the order page and enter WILL as the promo code. The good folks at the Saint office are giving you until Wednesday March 5th to take advantage of the offer, so don't dilly dally!

 

Apple iPod nano (Product)

www.nygpl.org which donates the money it raises through all of it's events to a variety of AIDS. Thanks to Amanda Takehometomother who wore a fantastic outfit as usual (and thank God I posted the pictures last Thursday before the crash!!) as well as our porn superstar Tre Xavier www.tre-x.com who brought flicks from Pitbull/Thugporn to give away as well as a very ripe black jockstrap that we were able to auction off for quite a good amount! Raising this amount put us well over our aim to raise $5,000.00 between January 9th and February 27th. Can we do that again in the next 60 days? Stay tuned and find out! (or just come on down this Wednesday March 5th and join us and make it happen!! LOL)

 

And speaking of Wednesday March 5th, this week's Porno Bingo we'll celebrate my 44th birthday. Consider yourself invited!

 

Not only is the Bingo Team planning something secretive (I shudder to think what! LOL) but I am welcoming an old friend of Fagapalooza fame: Kris Landherr www.krislandherr.com returns from Dallas this week to perform at Bingo as a little present to me and to promote his favorite songs (like "Fat Chicks Snore" and "I'm a Fag".. I miss you buddy!) 

 

Oh, right and then there's the matter of that hottie Victor Steele (no website sorry to say!) who is a Raging Stallion www.ragingstallion.com exclusive, yeah, he'll join us for the night too (if he's not put off by my droolin') and we'll be promoting his latest flick (not even released yet) MISCONDUCT naturally from Raging Stallion!

 

Plus, Victor will be drawn by artist William Donovan, the piece will then be auctioned off at the end of the night to benefit Visual AIDS www.visualaids.org !! We love our friends at Visual AIDS!!!

 

Oh and speaking of our fantastic porn performers, I should mention here that recent Bingo guest, Titan Exclusive Damien Crosse has a blog that I didn't mention last week, and the URL to that is www.damiencrosse.blogspot.com (and while you're at it, you can check out the blog of his best buddy - and one of my faves in the biz, Titan exclusive Diesel Washington at www.dieselwashington.blogspot.com )

 

 

In other news, congrats to the Goldilocks Party which was held last Thursday and raised nearly $3,000 for the New York City Gay Men's Chorus! Go Millie! Go Steady! They are talking about doing another one in May, but I'll keep you posted. Or you can keep yourself posted by going to http://goldilocksparty.blogspot.com

Victor Bumbalo's new drama "Questa" opened at Wings Theatre last week and plays Thursday - Mondays through March 22nd.The show is about a 'reverse gay bashing' and if that piques your interest, check out www.wingtheatre.com/questa.html Wings is located at 154 Christopher Street in the bottom level of the Archive building (next door to Crunch).

 

Tuesday nights, run Forest run to the Sweetie show at Therapy at 11pm (348 W. 52nd). Sweetie (who'll appear at Bingo on April 2nd, reserve your seat now!) says that there's no cover, a full Sweetie show and "tons of free booze to groveling wretchess and of course my alcholic friends". You can be one of her minions by going to www.myspace.com/dragstersweetie because you know, one can never have too many minions. (Well, this is what I hear anyway).

 

There's probably other things going on in town but this this is already running long so I'll wrap up with two items, first - this Saturday March 8th is the bi-weekly Dance 208 at the Center on W. 13th Street featuring "Juicy" a clean and sober dance. Porno Bingo has been donating a raffle prize the past few weeks of 10 Bingo cards good for any game plus a free gay porn DVD. Can't beat that with a stick plus the measly bucks that the Dance 208 charges to get in, goes to benefit the Center which all in all is a great thing. www.gaycenter.org (which celebrates it's 25th anniversary this Tuesday March 4th with a gala dinner at Capitale - 130 Bowery -hosted by the fantastic Bruce Vilanch! See the site for details.)

 

And the other thing, oh yeah, it's my birthday on Sunday March 9th. I'll be brunching and boozing with my New York family and as super corny as it sounds, that's the best birthday present that I personally need (but I'll still take cash and expensive jewelry <wink>) :)

 

See you all at Bingo this week and more porn news and event information next week in the newsletter of Will Clark World!
