Bebe Sweetbriar and Tony Leo were crowned king and queen at Gary Virginia’s epic Mardi Gras show and fundraiser for the AIDS Housing Alliance. Celebrants enjoyed go-go Jason Medina, and Oakland’s SambaFunk! Funkquarians. You can see my original assignment in the nightlife section of EdgeSanFrancisco.com.

Jason Medina, famous for his appearances in Andrew Christian underwear advertisements. More juicy pics of Jason at the end of the post.

Frank Fanucchi, aka Turk Mason. Also famous for underwear modeling, and adult videos.

We’re almost at the end of our post, be sure to click through on any of these images to see more intoxicating excitement in my outtakes gallery.

What a scrumptious morsel. I’ll take the whole enchilada with extra cheese, please.

Do you enjoy looking at gorgeous men in skimpy little nothings as much as I do?  I’ve curated a scandalous selection on Amazon.com (yes I’m an affiliate). Why not gift yourself, your man, (or your private dancer?) with a sexy pair of underwear? You’d be surprised at what’s shown nowadays, especially if you move the mouse over the crotch area for a magnified view, lol.

Latin Explosion Go Go Contest Teasers (Club 21 Oakland 3-8-13)

It’s Confirmed

I just got word this morning, I’m confirmed to shoot tomorrow (Friday August 16) at Valentino
Presents 21 Year Anniversary Party. It’s at Club 21 in Oakland, easily accessible via Bart just two blocks from 19th St. station.

It’s Quite The Party

This will be my third time taking the worthwhile trek to the popular weekly East Bay bash.  I hear there will be a $1000 balloon drop, and the usual eye popping, boner inducing go go papi chulos. Plus the hilarious Violetta and her Aries Travesti Show with Rommy Gonzalez and Jacqueline Aguilar, and tons of hot Latinos and Latinas.

Earlier This Spring:

Over $1,000 in cash prizes were given to the top finishers of Valentino Present’s Go Go Dancer Of The Year contest. A big crowd turned out for hostess Violetta and the eye candy. You can see my origional assignment as it appeared in the nightlife section of EdgeSanFrancisco.com.

One Year Ago:

The spacious Oakland venue was filled to the brim with a sexy Latin crowd. They were treated with a champagne buffet, performances by drag diva Violeta, hip hop sensation Nina Sky, and sizzling hot go-gos. You can see my original assignment: Latin Explosion 20th Anniversary as it appeared in the nightlife section of EdgeSanFrancisco.com.
Click on any of these dozen or so teaser photos to go go to my gallery of 311 prize winning outtakes from the competition earlier this spring.

Fitness expert Vincent Gatdula gave a stunning performance of sexy, arousing acrobatics.

3 A.M. Muni Melodrama :: Shenpa Spiritual Training

Watch Me Lose It

Watch as this divine supreme teacher is sent to help me zero in on my “Shenpa”. Bull’s eye, this time. Normally, I’m a chill, content, charming, happy go lucky kind of guy. But every now and then, even I, sweet little ole me, am tested to the point of losing my cool.

What led up to this?

For ten minutes this skanky, cracked-out, possibly homeless, nothing left to lose kind of drag queen had been propositioning, panhandling, then mocking, and harassing just about every person waiting at the bus stop on the way home from the Castro Friday night.

She gets on without paying, and proceeds to annoy anyone near her. I go sit in the back as far away as I can get, behind a 30’s ish couple of European tourists who are OBLIVIOUSLY having a two way video chat via their smartphones with friends from the homeland. They did not speak fluent English.

When is somebody going to check this bitch?

The monstress with the snake hair assumes they’re taping HER and her annoying rants, so she threatens to snatch their phone and slap them upside they haed. They have no idea what she’s saying, but they’re starting to figure out something’s wrong. Wow, I’m thinking, when is somebody going to check this bitch? That’s when I whip out my cheap ass $50 Getto PCS smartphone and start taping this tawdry yet instructional reality TV mini-sode.

So!

Right after, as soon as I get home, I google my favorite Buddhist guru, Pema Chodren, and find this enlightening video. It helped me calm down, digest, and understand what just happened.

Buddhists claim that “a spiritual friend is someone who’s job it is to insult you”. This helps you get to know just what sets you off, shuts you down, or gets you hooked. So I’m just oh so grateful to have met my new spiritual friend, who taught me that I really have issues with loud mouthed skanky bitches who just won’t shut up.

I’m looking forward to watching this video over and over and over (ha!), getting to know my Shenpa, and think about ways I could introduce more compassion in similar circumstances down the rocky OR the yellow brick road called life.

Pan Dulce’s LA Stripper Invasion @ The Cafe :: June 13, 2013

Say hola to Marlon, a member of LA Stripper Invasion. Read/scroll on for more, much, much more of Marlon and his banditos. Oh, btw there’s a few surprises for you at the end…

by photojimsf | Nightlife | Edge Media

Pan Dulce celebrated their nine year anniversary by bringing a basket-full of sweet treats from LA, the famous Caramelo strippers. Gloria Trevi concert tickets were given away, as were appetizers, courtesy of Zapata Taqueria. You can see my original assignment in the nightlife section of EdgeSanFrancisco.com.

Here’s a dozen or so of the juiciest, dripping wet teasers from my gallery of 211 too racy for Edge Media outtakes. Click right on the crotches in any of these pictures to enter.

Pan Dulce is held on Thursdays at The Cafe in SF, CA. Produced by Jamie Awad’s Club Papi Productions.

Now that’s what I call a choke-eat-a-banana.

As pomised. MORE of Marlon and his member.

Can’t say for sure, but I thought I was getting a str8 vibe.

Yet he seemed to be having such a great time, teasing and waving that baseball bat right in our gay faces.

He was extra willing and kind when asked to pose for pictures.

Just a reminder as we near the end of our post (there’s still two surprises coming), to click on any of these photos to see my outtakes gallery, just bulging, aching, and straining with 211 more images from the event.

Choreographer Luis Paul Canales sidelines as a cocktail server. He also dances go go at The Cafe and other venues in the bay area. Be sure to see his production “The Dark Tunnel Series” at Dance Mission Theater Sept 13, 14, and 15, 2013.

And now for the first surprise. I’ve curated a slide show of the raciest underwear ads on Amazon.com (Yes I’m an affiliate now). I was shocked, pleasantly of course, just to see how much skin and bulge can be shown, and if you click through, it takes you to the product page where you can zoom in and enlarge and inspect the goods as close up as being teabagged! These items make great gifts, for yourself and for your partner. Or your private dancer.

Amazon.com WidgetsWelcome back from browsing/shopping Amazon, hope you had fun. Now I have a treat for you. For our final surprise, a youtube video of Marlon in action on stage at this event. Ektor the Gaga Monster filmed it on their smart phone and was kind enough to post it on Youtube for the world and us to see.

Honey Mahogany Scorches Nina Simone

Update update! I found another version of Honey singing “Feeling Good”. It was at the opening of MOTHA : Museum of Transgender History and Art ( sfmotha.org ) at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco. She’s tastefully glammed out, and wows us with a middle eastern/Beyonce prelude, a slow, steady build up, and then a stunningly long and forceful final note. I put it at the end of this post, just in case you’d like to see the original:

Having a lazy Sunday afternoon, listening to my Youtube playlist: “Killer Glam Diva Performances“. It’s tea time, and I’m FEELING GOOD! Watch as Honey gives a smokin rendition of the song Nina Simone made famous.

Be sure to see Honey and her pals burn up the stage every Monday night at “Mahogany Mondays” at the Midnight Sun, in SF CA.

Honey Mahogany and the Erika Von Volkyrie trio perform at Martuni’s. Featuring Elvis Johnson on drums and Bill Noertker on bass. Video recorded by Under the Golden Gate:
