St. Louis Black Gay Pride 2008

Friday, August 22nd, 2008

I went back to my home town of St. Louis for Black Gay Pride.  I can say that it was my first time actually going to any of the events. My night started out at Magnolias.  It was off the chain. There were so many fuckin people not to mention familar faces.  What I did was post up posters near the front door  and the entrance area to each room. The poster is hot, of course its got me and a few other Rockafellaz.  Anyway, I was in a another location of the club setting up and laying out the Raw Rod DVDs that I was going to be giving away that night.  Before I knew it people were coming in and asking for autographed posters and movies. Wanting to take pictures and all that good shit. 

 

 

After the club I was invited to attend a ball. Well I did not want to disappoint the individual that invited me so I went. I got there and did not stay long. I was already tired and worn out from the promo that was done at Magnolias.  While there I ran into an old friend whom I was really cool with when I used to live in St. Louis. If you saw this dude, he has so many tattoos, everywhere. Other than that I know that he is a great tattoo artist and he offered to hook me up with a few new ones. Well I hung out at the place where this ball was being held, but like I said before I was exhausted so I was not trying to stay there long.  I dont have anything against those that participate in those events, I have never been the type of participate or attend them, except for that particular time.

 

It was cool because I was able to be in my home town and let the people know that I was out putting St. Louis on the map in the porn industry.

 

I knew since I was in town that I might as well look into getting some new tattoos. All of the ones that I have right now were done in St. Louis. So of course you know I got in touch with my boy that I saw at the promo event the previous night. I also met up with my mom and the rest of my family and spent some time with them while I was in town. Sometimes it seems like there is never enough time to do what I want to do when I am home. But its a busy life that I live and I do what I can to make time. 

 

That Saturday night I went to a club called 747, which I knew was going to be crowded. Man that place was so hot, and I’m talking about the temperature in the room. I mean it was some sexy people there of course but I was still kinda out of it, not to mention I was getting tired of  people bumping into my arm. The same arm that I had just got my tattoo done on.  We all know how that can be.

 

But anyway the following day I went to the pride event that was being held at Keiner plaza in downtown St. Louis. That was a pretty good turn out as well.  I actually ran into the girl that kinda got me started. Funny shit isn’t it.  Then when she found out what I was doing she was really in shock, not in a bad way either.  We talked for a while and took some photos, of course with her camera or I would have posted the pictures right here on my blog. 

 

My weekend ended with one more club promo on Sunday night at the Complex. This was a very nice club. The crowd was nice as well as the bartender because he hooked me up with what ever I wanted to drink. Just so you all know Im not a big drinker, Im really into the light shit. You know Pineapple Malibu, Parrot Bay, Pina Coladas shit like that. In addition to that I was signing so many autographs. It was cool though because I was able to meet a lot of my fans and people that supported me. It felt so good to be back in the STL.  

 

I would like to thank the club owners, and the people of STL Black Pride that welcomed me and allowed me to be part of the events. I also thank the fans, because you all definitely keep me going.
