FetishCon

Date: 1st Oct 2004
Hi all
I am back from the States and had an awesome time, few hiccups like a certain hurricane. Just going to give you a brief outline of what happened for those interested.
Fistly had a nightmare getting through immigration, noy cause of the ropes etc but I think they thought i was planning on staying. Got through and got to the hotel which was undergoing renovations and seemed to be surrounded by other hotels etc and not much else.
Suffice to say I got to my room ant thought "What the hell have I done" Then I went to the bar planning on sitting there for a while before having an early night just as I finished my second drink I saw JB Roper, Kato from Bondagenymphs and Sir Wallter, then Ikaras walked in followed a little later by Martin from Sara Nichols site and Delerium ex of Twisted Smile- now I knew why I had come! We sat chatting, got introduced to Christina Carter - who is as stunning in real life as she looks in her pictures. Ended up staying up til 1:30 when fatigue overtook me.
Next day wandered down to register and met up with some guys including JoeFetish who wants to organise a Con in the UK. Then Stacy Burke wandered through and I went to say hello- amazingly she remembered me- good job as we had a shoot at 12 (which I had thought was 2) which went really well, she truly is a joy to work with.
Then I wandered back down hung out and wandered arrund the con until the Meet and greet. Hooked up with the guys again and Ikaras was introducing me around and I met some great people (sorry that I may have forgotten your names I am awfull at remembering them) including Anastacia Pierce and Eve Ellis who both agreed to shoot with me. (dont get too excited, thanks to Hurricane Jeanne the Eve Ellis shoot never went ahead)
Then Darla Crane came in and I went to say hello only to be dragged out to the bar to pretty much drink the hotels entire stock of Champagne with her her partner, Anna Mills, Caroline Pierce and later joined by Jewell Marceau, Julie Simone and Anastacia Pierce. Had a great night though surreal as I a small time bondage photographer from the UK sat there surrounded by such bondage luminaries.
Friday was a mare, started very badly I had had to run arrouf on Thursday as I had double booked shootrs on Friday with Tomiko and Akira Lane, managed to rearrange with Tomiko then Akira cancelled our shoot as she was ill but I couldn't get in touch to confirm so kinda wandered about like a fool. Jewell Marceau also cancelled, and Darla said she wasn't sure we could fit one in. So I wandered around the Con and chatted to Ken Scott From AES, Ken and Stacy from Captivesnapshots and Rope Expert (Name dropping or what!!!) Then Anna Mills appeared so I grabbed her for a shoot which was excellent, then went to grab something to eat with her, Chrissie Daniels and a couple of her friends. They left for a shoot and Sir Wallter came down and we chatted for a while. Not sure totally what happened next but remember ending up at a table with the guys and were joined by Jon Woods and Lorelei, AB and Gobnui (I think thats how it is spelt) tried to make conversation but **** it was Jon Woods and Lorelei! - my biggest insprirations!
Saturday shot Anastacia which was great and Ikaras helped me so I have some on camera tying managed to contact Akira and rescedule for Sunday (Yay!) Wandered around chatting was asked to do the fan shoot but that fell through something I was sorry and glad about at the same time. Then went to Darla's party at a local nightclub and drank and danced (badly) had a great time again and got to bed about 4am
Sunday got up in a total daze and prepared for my shoots, worked with Tomiko first and had a fun and a good chat, she is awesome at DID bondage and did some excellent expressions, then Akira who was brilliant to work with very bubbly and enthusiastic. Ikaras helped again on that one, thankfully as fatigue really was beginning to take over. We finished the shoot and Akira went to her next one when the lights went out. I had been so engrossed that I hadn't noticed the hurricane right outside. Ikaras and I wentdownstairs to the Foyer where people were gathering to see what was happening. We sat for a while as a croud gathered then Genesis announced that the end of Con party was going ahead! Amazing! I went in only to be pulled out byt the guys saying they wereon their way out to find some food and water. We drove round Tampa and found a 7 11 and pizza place took it back to the hotel then had a picnic in a section of lit hallway.Went back to the party and chatted to Stacy and Sir wallter before going to bed.
Monday, the hotel kicked us out (I was planning on staying till Wednesday anyway but some of the others had no choice due to cancelled flights) The comeradery that I witnessed was brilliant everyone helping each other and making sure each was OK. My thanks Go to Sir Walter, his site partner (whose web name I dont know and am not going to put his real name) and JB for helping me out and to the others for their concern and offers of help. Got to another hotel and got a shower by about 4pm (boy I must have reeked) Then to show that every coud has a silver lining we arranged another shoot with Akira. I helped JB and JB helped me then I witnessed some superb oppositional bondage by Sir Wallter. We grabbed something to eat hooked up with Martin and Delerium again before JB, Sir Wallter and I chatted the night away, literally till dawn.
Tuesday hung out as we were too tired to do much else, went for a bit of a tour of clearwater got to the beach, took some holiday snaps, got sunburnt (stupid!) then the others left and I went to a mall then packed and went to bed.
Wednesday came home and got home yesterday.
So hope I haven't bored you all with this, and in finishing I would just like to say a big hello to every one I met, it was a pleasure to meet you all and sorry if I have missed anyone. Thanks to the models I worked with and a plea to come to the UK sometime! And to the guys and gals I hung out with who at the end of the day were the driving force for me to go in the first place a big Hi and see you next year.
Cheers
Bob

Hi
I think a convention in the UK is a fantastic idea and I for one would give it my full support.
Might be better to make it a Fetishcon rather than a Domcon specifically, to open it up to mainstream bondage and fetish fans.
Look forward to more news
Cheers
