Erotica LA

This weekend's Erotica LA show at the Los Angeles convention center ran smoothly next to a Church of God in Christ gathering.

Though many thought the crowd was down from last year, organizer Ron Miller told www.geneross.com that it was up. "My numbers were certainly up. People were very happy with the show. The impression from most of the big vendors, people who have been there all three years, was that the business was up from last year. Their sales were up from last year. Everyone that I spoke to at Wicked's [Wicked Pictures was located at the entrance way] booth felt that the traffic flow was a constant. We didn't have any spurts. The first hour that the doors were opened on Friday we had upwards of 1500 people. The room filled up and it stayed that way.

"What we did this year was that the front row between the front wall and where we started booths, we increased that setback by almost seven feet. Between the back row of booths and the back end, we increased that by five feet. We increased each aisle by 2 1/2 to 3 feet, the idea being that that would take care of the gridlock situation that gave us problems last year with the fire marshal.

"Bottom line, I haven't tallied numbers to the extent I need to give an accurate reflection. If I had to give an estimation of people, last year we were something over 12,000, this year we were looking for between 15 to 18,000 people. I'm fairly confident we made that number."

Organizer Ron Miller ran a tight ship. He banned the public from bringing in cameras. This was to reduce the odds of porn stars getting baited to undress, and then getting arrested by the numerous cops around (both in uniform and in plain clothes).

Director Jim Holliday loved the show. He told me, "I was more recognized here than I am in the industry." A couple of dozen fans asked him for his autograph.

Ron Miller threw out Max Hardcore on Saturday for pinching a girl on the ass.

I hear that Wicked contract girl Missy is breaking up with her husband Mickey G.

From www.geneross.com: "While Erotica LA was going full swing Friday evening, Fox News ran a local story about Brandy Alexandre being fired from her executive secretary's spot at Forest Lawn Memorial Park when her porn past evidently became a gnarly issue. Noted First Amendment attorney Paul Cambria has been retained by Extreme Associates in the $1.5 million lawsuit filed against them by Van Damage and Tiffany Mynx."

Brad from Danger Boy Video writes Luke: "Thanks for the key photo location on today's page. We really think the new movie is worthy of the hype...and if we have to throw out 10,000 free copies to get everyman to see it...we will. I hope that you escaped the riot ok..When we started ...I noticed that you were just to the side of the booth....and after, when I looked for you.....no Luke. I thought you got flattenned like on the gumby cartoon....pressed into the carpet. LOL. Anyway....we all had fun, and Candy can't wait to do another sigining. The fans got a ton of free s---, compliments of Mila raping our inventory. Nobody went to jail....all good."

Erotica LA was jammed on Friday night and Saturday. Two girls at the www.adultstarsmagazine.com booth were flashing until organizer Ron Miller shut them down.

I hear that the adult show in Las Vegas last week was a bust with only six exhibitors and 200 fans showing up.

I woke up late Sunday morning after a date Saturday night seeing Austin Powers (stupid flick), and arrived at the Los Angeles Convention Center at 11:20 AM. At the press check in, I had to sign a form to get permission to take photos. The form asked me to not ask porn girls to undress for my camera.

Once inside, I ran into a friendly Ed Powers. He said he believed in my website. We talked about the egos in the business. Ed said that he promoted himself (like Ron Jeremy) for business reasons, to increase the sales of his product. Not because he has a huge ego.

Ron Miller, recently divorced, appears excited about his new girlfriend Brooke Hunter and her growing success in the porno world. She's signed to do a feature movie for Wicked and in Jill Kelly's 25 girl gangbang. Obviously in love with her, he's at least as interested in promoting her as he is in promoting his show.

Though I've met Johnathan Morgan several times, today is the first time that we exchange more than a couple of sentences. I find him schmoozing with Rebecca Bardoux and signing autographs at the Wicked booth, the biggest booth of the convention.

He busts my balls over a bad review I gave Double Feature. A couple of months ago, I publicly complained that I had plugged Double Feature (written by Rodger Jacobs) into my VCR to jerk off and there was so much schtick, it wilted my willy.

Morgan: "We'll be doing three editions, like Star Wars. The next one will be Bride of a Double Feature, then Son of a Double Feature. If the planets align and the power at Wicked says we can make them. I'm doing a spoof on the adult business. In the script, there's a psychotic raving lunatic star who will be played by Jenna Jameson. That will be perfect.

"I shoot a movie about every other month. I also run their editing department. I'm exclusive with Wicked which is perfect. I never wanted to be under contract with any company except for one, Wicked. I've known Stevie [Orenstein], since he opened the doors in 1993. I was in his first movie. Arabian Nights."

Jim Enright directed and Morgan starred with Stephen St. Croix.

Morgan: "Steve Orenstein gave me my first chance to direct a gonzo [a wall to wall porn video with little or no script, and the performers usually acknowledge the camera]. Steve gave me my first chance to be a lead in a movie. My first chance to direct a major feature. If ever there was someone who bent over backwards, it was Steve Orenstein. I would take a bullet for him.

"I edited the introductory video for the AVN Awards. It had all the nominees for that year... I set it to music...

"I'm into editing, which helps my directing. The best directors are also editors. Because after they shoot something, then they can go into the editing room and spice things up. As opposed to saying, 'here's my vision,' and then hand it to somebody who is making minimum wage and could care less what your vision is...

"I support free choice for condom use [in porno]. I personally believe in condoms and safe sex but I don't want to impose that. I'm happy with Wicked's condom only policy.

"I used to be afraid as a director that with condoms you could not get the good hard wood, but along came Viagra and now everybody has the good hard wood. I like condoms. I use them in my personal life.

"I stopped performing [1996]... I remember editing a movie I was in, and I'm thinking, 'who is that fat f--- in the corner?' And then when the camera panned up, ohmigod, that's me... That's when I knew it was time to pull up the pants and get behind the camera. After eight years in front of the camera, I've done everybody I wanted to do. I've accomplished all the goals I've wanted to accomplish as an actor. Now I'm pushing myself as an editor and a director.

"Performing affected my personal life because girls would have a real problem with, 'honey, I can't f--- you tonight because tomorrow I have to go bang some other chick.' But as a director and as an editor, it does not affect me at all. I'm not looked at as too sleazy. If anything, now that I am directing, I have a social life.

"I stopped doing standup comedy in 1994 when the acting kicked in. I was working 25 days a month... I perform for my dates. I've always liked a woman who's laughing at me when I'm taking off my clothes.

"I was Damien HellX when I worked for Zane. They were the anal company then, and were really pushing the envelope. They wanted the filthiest raunchiest anal possible. When Max Hardcore left Zane, he still wanted that persona. And they had John Bone... So I suggested that we create Damien HellX, this European director who only shoots the filthiest of stuff. We did Anal Rippers and Anal Inquisition.

"I enjoyed that. I've always enjoyed shooting dialogue, but now I have the skill of shooting sex. Yes, it is formulaic. I choreograph the sex. If you're watching though, it looks like poetry in motion. When I started, the formula was, you give her head, she gives you head, you f--- in two positions and then you pop. The formula I like, maybe you give her head, eventually, sometime during the sex scene she will give you head, and then you f---, f---, f--- until you can't f--- anymore, and then you blow a load on her face. That's the sex I like. That hot, energetic sweaty sex.

"The best movie I have ever made is Double Feature, the one you hated. I will make sure that at the AVN Award show, when I win for Best Comedy, I'm going to say, 'I'd like to thank Luke F-rd for all his support.'

"Number two would be either Crazed or Indigo Delta. Then Pornogothic. Though I'll always have a soft spot for Anal Rippers and Shaved Tails... I like gonzos. They were simple to make and the sex was pure and hot. You'd put the performers on a nice comfortable bed or couch..."

I run into Melanie Stone's hubby Hunter. "We've just signed a deal with Seymore Butts to distribute her line...The Sexual Adventures of Melanie Stone... We're going to do eight movies a year and she's not going to work for others much... In the first edition, Dee and her husband Rob do a scene, Ron Jeremy and Lola, Melanie and Pat and Shelby Myne. Melanie does Marc Davis and a brand new girl from Dallas, Angie, who does a scene with Melanie.

"I am so pissed about this, you have no idea. This guy is a piece of s---. We had a new girl over here and I was telling her about rates and the business... I'm an honest guy. I don't f--- talent. Never have and don't want to. And she goes over and starts talking to XXX. He takes her outside... And she says, 'the only guy that I've met here who has been honest and nice is Hunter and Melanie... They're a nice couple. And he says, 'why was he so nice to you? Does he want to f--- you?'

"You motherf---er. Who the f--- are you to be saying that when you're the piece of s--- that does that. So she comes back in and tells me this..."

Melanie: "I don't understand why people make rude comments like that when they know nothing about us. Hunter treats every girl with respect. He's never done another girl in this business."

Luke: "You don't bring women home for him?"

Hunter: "Yeah, but they're outside of the business. It's her dancer friends from Dallas..."

Melanie: "People assume that because he's a director in the business, that he f---s the girls.. People assume... People have their own insecurites and they project them..."

Hunter giggling: "Just because he can't get laid, doesn't mean he's got to push it off on me."

Hunter: "We're doing a series [with Don Osterholt] for Atlas Multimedia. He owns www.liveporn.com. That site should be up in a month. We'll have live sex on the internet. We shot Melanie's series live (from 7PM to 2AM) on the internet. On the night we shot, 138,000 people visited her site www.melaniestone.com. We had 580 people in the chat room alone. We ran it on Racquel Darrien Live and Melanie Stone Live.com."

I talked briefly with tall blonde Julia Ann, a Vivid girl and longtime dance partner with Janine (Blondage). Their new movie Blondage 2 is out and Blondage 3 will be out soon. Julia Ann shot four movies for Vivid last year. She mainly dances in clubs alone now.

"I dance about 30 weeks a year on the road. It is still exciting..."

I stop by the Free Speech Coalition booth. Bill Margold does not appear open to talking to me. So I chat with Rayne, who organizes various fundraisers. Her latest one is Curveball 99. A softball game August 29th featuring "adult film stars." The funds go to SEDA - Self Awareness for Disabled Americans. It's cosponsored by international hall of fame martial artist Thomas Martin. He's developed curriculums for blind kids, autistic kids and children in wheelchairs and children who are amputtees. The program focuses on self esteem and social interaction.

'People can call me at 714-703-4553 for tickets. Wednesday nights I'm at Sandarellas, a topless bar in Anaheim, 815 S. Brookhurst... Last year was Curveball 98. We had adult film stars and exotic dancers playing softball. It was a toy drive. My younger brother has spinabifida scoliosis. He's an incomplete quadraplegic. He's always wanted to do martial arts. I was put in touch with Thomas Martin...

"Next week I'll be doing Sex Court for Playboy. I've done about 30 hardcore videos and magazines. I did Cumback Pussy 19 with Brian Williams for Elegant Angel."

Luke: "Why the tattoos?"

Rayne: "I'm an art collector. Once you do one, you end up with a lot."

I chat with Scott Stein of SMS Productions, www.smsproductions.com, about his Mexican porn star trip. About 50 adult entertainers (half porn stars, half strippers) are coming along with the 300 fans. Already, 200 fans have signed up. Metro plans to shoot more than 60 scenes during the week.

Scott: "I like being my own boss. I like being in control of my own destiny. I enjoyed working for Paul Fishbein and AVN... I started out as a freelancer and worked my way up to managing editor and Vice President."

I hang out with director James DiGiorgio at the Typhoon booth (Japanese porno). Only in business a year, the company releases eight videos a month. The videos are produced by the David Sturman of Japan, Casey.

"Casey is probably a third of the production market there," says DiGiorgio. "Then he distributes and he owns about a third of the retail outlets there."

I hear that Jeff Stryker owes Greg Zeboray $129.

I meet French porn director Francois Clousea but he says he does not give interviews to protect his mainstream life.

James DiGiorgio introduces me to Rebecca Lord to straighten out the rumors that she does escort work. Jim and Rebecca and Rebecca's people adamently say it is not true and they are shocked and horrified that Luke would publish unchecked gossip as gospel truth.

We step outside so Rebecca can smoke a cigarette. Several porn stars talk about AIM's 24 hour turnaround on PCR DNA tests. How can they get the blood processed so much quicker than everyone else?

James DiGiorgio: "Rebecca and I [Blue Light Pictures] jointly produced two movies that will be distributed by Andrew Drake of www.upskirt.com. The first one was Unfaithful Hearts starring Rebecca, Temptress, Heaven Leigh, Charlese L'Amour. The next one needs to be edited - La Femme Rebecca. It's an I-Spy, Mission Impossible thing. It's all European girls. Linda Thoren. It will be out about the same time as the Sin City movies with Linda Thoren [and thus will be able to ride on the publicity and advertising that Sin City will do for her]. And two Hungarian girls. All natural girls.

"We're looking at selling a soft cut to TeN [the Erotic Network on dish]. Adam and Eve wants it.

"We funded it ourselves. We called in some favors... These are high production value pieces...with story, acting... We're pretty happy with it, huh?"

Rebecca: "Yeah, we're really pleased with it."

James: "Andrew loved it... Lucky Smith told us that he was down at Adam & Eve in North Carolina and they were all buzzed about it... Unfaithful Hearts. It's a takeoff of He Said, She Said. La Femme, she plays a thief who uses other girls to steal things back for an insurance company."

Rebecca: "Unfaithful Hearts is a great script. It's a boyfriend, and the husband having an affair with someone else, and the girls having an affair with the husband..."

James: "It's very stylized."

Rebecca: "I'm also promoting my Pure Sex line, distributed by Andrew Drake [who stands behind us wearing blue sunglasses]."

James: "It's gonzo like but it is not a gonzo. There are hard and soft versions. But it is not story driven. It's more thematic. She went out to Melrose Street and Venice and did man-on-the-street interviews about what kind of positions they like, and what are your favorite sexual things to do... It's like a documentary..."

Rebecca: "Jim did the editing. Basically, we checked with people from the outside about what they like to see and do, and then we did it."

James: "The guys were all gawking at her."

Rebecca: "Actually, the guys were more shy. Sometimes the girls wanted to answer... It was interesting to ask couples."

Long haired Tony Tedeschi wanders around near us, telling anyone who will listen that they should not talk to Luke F-rd because I will twist their words.

James: "Tony Tedeschi is in Unfaithful Hearts. You know Tony, right?"

Jim sees a look of concern on my face.

Luke: "Yeah."

Jim: "Why, is he going to beat you up?"

Luke, tentatively: "I don't think so."

Jim laughs. "Look at the look on his [Luke's] face."

Rebecca: "Most of the people know your [Luke] name but not your face."

Jim: "He likes to keep it that way."

Luke to Rebecca: "How would you compare the porn industry in America to France?"

Rebecca: "God, I like it ten times better here in the United States. That's why I stayed. People are more professional. You get plenty of choice. You choose who you want to work with and for... I met lots of nice people. A girl, as an actress, can do a lot of things. She can produce herself, she can do photos, she can go on the road...

"In Europe it is a very small industry. Mostly its amateurs. Honestly, people don't treat girls very well. It's more like a piece of meat."

Jim: "Here the girls are treated like gods. She's like a princess. In Europe, they go to the guy, who do you want to work with. Here, we go to the girl and say, who do you want to work with"

Rebecca: "And in Europe condoms are not accepted yet, which I think is a big mistake. I've been using condoms since 1995."

Jim: "And it hasn't hurt her career because she's an A-list girl."

Rebecca: "I did not do facial cumshots for three years."

Jim: "She just prefers me to come over to her house once or twice a week and cum on her face."

Rebecca: "I found out that if you get it in your eyes, you don't have any risk [of catching HIV], because it had contact with the air [and supposedly contact with the air kills the HIV virus]. I did not know that before which is why I did not do facials for three years.

"I did my only anal scene for my fan club. Jim shot it. Michael J. Coxx does it. It costs $69.

"I dance. I'll be at Spearmint Rhino next weekend in the City of Industry."

Jim: "I'll come see you. She always drags me on stage, humps on me and stuff. It embarrasses me."

Rebecca: "In Europe, people have a more liberal attitude toward sex. They're more open. In American, people are very puritan, but that is good for us. It is good for the business. Because the more people are puritan, the more people buy it. It is so open in France, that's why the business is so small. You go to the beach and you see topless people. So people have less need to see naked people."

Jim: "Rebecca walks around my house naked all the time, but it doesn't bother me."

Luke to Rebecca: "So, you've never done escort work?"

Rebecca: "No, I've never done escort work. Ever. I wouldn't."

Jim, who feels most protective of Rebecca: "She doesn't need to, Luke. She's a big performer in the business. She dances on the road, as a feature, and makes a lot of money. And she's got a very successful fan club. Why the f--- would she need to go f--- some guy for a thousand bucks."

Rebecca: "There's a big difference between being a prostitute and a porno star. As a porno star, you bring fantasies to the public."

Jim: "And some of us are stuck with the reality of porn stars."

Rebecca: "Escorts have sex with clients... I like my job as a porno star."

Lord's manager comes over (after Tony Tedeschi got to him?) and mutters some French to her.

Lord: "He's saying, please keep what she's saying in context."

Tedeschi to Lord: "You know he's going to translate it and find out what you said."

James to Luke: "You see, now you've met her. You get a whole different outlook on her. She's real person, flesh and blood."

Tedesch tauntsi: "I'd sue. If someone wrote that about me, I'd sue."

James to Rebecca: "I understand you went to Catholic school."

Rebecca: "Yes."

Jim: "Were you abused?"

Rebecca: "No."

Luke: "Did any priests jump on you?"

Jim: "Did your parents jump on you?"

Lord laughs.

Tedeschi: "Fishing for bottomfeeders like flounder.... Suck the scum off the bottom of the ocean."

I find Jill Kelly's ex-contract girl Devan Davis showing off an artificial vagina called Cherry Twat, which features her on the cover.

I run into Jeremy Steel, who I've not seen for about three years. He's broken up with Eden Rae and is returning to performing after a two year layoff.

Jeremy: "I work for Ifriends and Babenet. Usually it's just for an hourly wage...to perform solo. Sometimes I do boy girl.

"My ex and I were supposedly the first couple in the USA to do hardcore live in 1997.

"We [talent] ought to be making a lot more money. We're exposing ourselves in every way. We risk our lives, our health, our future... Getting a job somewhere else when this s--- falls through. Meanwhile, companies like VCA make millions of dollars per year... It is the most exploitative businesss... When I'm on pay per view, Spice, Playboy on a regular basis and I am not getting a penny for that, there's something wrong."

Luke: "Do you have to use condoms when you're working for Babenet [which is associated with VCA, an all-condom company]?"

Jeremy: "You have to have a DNA test... Condoms are up to the discretion of the performer, which is how it should be. Hypothetically, if they wanted to have a Gonorrhea test and if they didn't believe in HIV, which I don't, but I follow whatever standard exists...

"I have a lot to say. I'm planning a book on the adult business. I have a friend with literary connections..."

Jeremy speaks slowly in a flat monotone voice. "I'm taking things casually... When I first got into the business, it was my fulltime pursuit. I still have hard feelings about certain people and certain things in this business... I'm just mingling. If people get me work, fine... If they don't, fine. I've met a lot of flakes. A lot of people would say they were going to work me or use me, but it never happened. I don't know to what extent I will be back in business."

Wearing a grey suit and the long red tie that was a gift from Alexandra Silk at her Silk Ties promotion at the Hustler Hollywood earlier this year, I wander over to the Fallen Angel booth. Alexandra Silk is signing autographs. Because of the departure of Gigi Appleton, Fallen Angel now belongs to Luc Wylder, who's working over 100 hours a week.

Silk plays the bailiff on Playboy TV's Sex Court program, which ranked number one among all the channel's shows last week, according to Luc. Her free site www.alexandrasilk.com boasts a huge photo gallery taken by B movie actress Julie Strain.

I stop by Danger Boy Video where Mila tossing free videos to the gathering crowd. She grabs me, shakes me up, and yells at me for not writing about her enough. Brad from Danger Boy rescues me and gives me a couple of free videos, DBV's first two productions. The line is called "Mila: Queen of Nasty."

The videos have no boxcover because the planned cover had to be withdrawn for fear of obscenity prosecution. It featured Mila fisting another girl (Mara).

Brad: "Five scenes... Mila's first directing."

Brad pauses to yell at Mila, reminding her not to take her clothes off.

He then returns to tell me about the 30-minute solo tape starring Mila. "Thirty minutes of masturbation... She shoots Easter Eggs out of her ass. She shoots ice cubes at the camera. She squirts female ejaculation, about a quart of cum, out of her pussy and on to the camera lens and then licks it away. She sticks a 14-inch dildo down her throat until she gags. And then up her ass."

Mike South writes on RAME: "During Serenity's considerable ( relatively speaking) tenure in this business that she has NEVER missed a featuring engagement, or any other professional commitment. Jenna on the other hand..... But whose ass gets royally kissed and promoted by Wicked? Face it Joy King IS Jenna."

Robert Sterling, editor of the www.konformist.com, writes to Dave Cummings:

It was a pleasure meeting you on Sunday at the LA Erotica convention: you are a true gentleman, and hope it isn't the last time we hang out. It is always nice to see someone in the adult film industry who is completely lacking of cynicism and self-destructive problems, as it actually almost restores my faith in humanity.

Oh yeah, there was a lot of babes as well: Serenity, who, as usual, was mobbed by fans, though it was nice to get a brief talk to her, Stephanie Swift, who I had the pleasure of dancing with at the Tantra Bar in Venice in May, and Jewel DeNyle and Nancy Vee, both of whom were especially frisky, not that I mind. I also bumped into someone I know, a good looking Asian girl whose the roommate of a foxy writer I hang out with sometimes, and she was impressed with the bungee sex machine.

The only disappointment was that Nakita Kash wasn't working that night at the Beverly Club, where they held the Hustler party. I would've liked to finally meet her as well, as she has been fabulous for my site (she's May's Konspiracy Girl.)

I actually went to this thing on the fly, as Sasha Gabor (who I have become good friends of after dissing him) called me up on Sunday morning and asked me if I wanted to help him meet Ron Jeremy at the airport. I figured what the hell. I decided it wouldn't be wise to mention I referred to his "immense girth and squat-like, trollish appearance which is, incredibly, more repulsively grotesque in real life than on camera" in the gang bang piece. He was quite appreciative, and gave me free passes to both events.

Curiously, the day before, I was at an all day out-of-body experience workshop hosted by Pamela Stonebrook, the woman who is writing a book on her sexual experiences with Alien Reptilians. Little did I know the next day I'd be sharing a car with someone even more physically disgusting than extraterrestrial lizard men.

Kid Sparkle writes Luke about "A Gimmick Gone Bad"

For those of us experienced in this business, we know that it can sometimes get hot. Not in the sex, and not in the scenes. Heat. What all of us catch if a community is offended. Or a goverment agency agitated.

For quite some time we have avoided the raids. We have avoided pressure that we, at one time could not. I can only say prior to my next statement; that my intentions in this industry have always been to produce and perform. Show me the money. Buisiness is buisiness. And I have avoided the "high-school -like" persons, personalities and games. Now I want to talk about Kid Vegas, and the two men that are responsible.

First off. I welcome anyone to step-up-to -the-plate and produce great movies and become succesful. I have no issues with Kid Vegas being incredibly original with his nome de guirre or the titles to his movies. I don't need to kick his ass, slander his name, nor even need to play his game. To a majority of us it is a joke that really isn't that funny, and that none of us can figure out. NOW HERE IS MY CONCERN.

Kid Vegas boasts, constantly, and with every word out of his mouth, both publicly and privately, about his so-called use of hardcore drugs, violence and weapons. He fires off live rounds of an ak-47 and so-on.(Based on a Sparkle Study, most men preffered, live firing squads, skateboarding and small scary fires over any type of sexual activity in their adult movies.) I am not physically threatened nor afraid by that, nor Kid vegas the gunslinger himelf. But WE ALL are threatened.

With Kid Vegas's talks about cocaine, ghb, prostitution and so-on. He opens up the door to investigate the Industry problem. And although their are most of us whom party and what not. We keep it to ourselves (asside from rumors. which we still keep within ourselves.) He is already under investigation and the attention of the LAPD,the FBI and others are now looking around like kids on Easter Day in an egg forest. We all press the limits of what we know we can and should do. But, we should all take notice to the consequences that could come to all uf us from someone not part of the big picture, nor a key player in this buisiness.

This e-mail was not written due to jealousy, ego-issues, or publicity. Kid Vegas intends and believes that by promoting himself as the GenX cat that does cocaine, ghb, prostitutes and etc.. He will become a new icon of adult. It is his gimmick, it is his game, and it will be his own self destruction. He will not shut up about the use of illegal drugs, the use and firing of illegal weapons and more. Think about that. Anytime in past history. What did we as an industry catch heat for. DRUGS, PROSTITUTION, WEAPONS, ETC. IT IS NOT GOOD PUBLICITY FOR THE INDUSTRY. Mind you, GHB is the same drug that we all (other than Kid Vegas) knows the guy that is now in Federal Prison for a really long time. And GHB the date rape drug and kid killer. If you think no detective or agency is interested in a person not shutting up about that , you are un-educated. I can only say to Kid Vegas. Read some books. Learn the laws. Look at successul movie makers work, and figure out why they were succesfull. Learn. But you better learn quick. You're playing with the big-boys now. You need to stop relying on your "Daddy" that you always talk about. Your daddy needs to spank you. To the rest of my fellow pornographers. Hope everyone is well. I thought erotica LA was a complete joke worthy of no ones time. And I hope I've made some sense. I could be crazy, but I think I have a point.

On Friday night, Kid Vegas left this message on Luke's answer machine:

We're here partying...doing drugs... Dominick wants to say hi to all his fans.

Dominick: 'Hey, what's happening...'

Kid Vegas: "In the background, you might be able to hear Devon and Candy Apples f---ing. Let me see if I can get you some footage here.

Candy Apples screams in the background. She sounds like she is in the middle of sex. 'Oh God, oh f---, f--- me, f--- me. Oh God, oh, f---, yes, yes, yes, yes. Oh my God."

Kid Vegas: "Music by Garbage. Devon f---ing Candy Apples. Peace out Luke F-rd."

Kid Vegas phones back. Candy Apples screams in the background.

Kid Vegas: "My dad just bought me a new multimillion dollar studio. I'm going to start shooting next weeks. I have new business cards. Here's Candy Apples getting f---ed again... Drugs.

Kid Vegas yells, "I need some drugs. Some more alcohol.'

Candy moans.

Kid Vegas: "Louder Candy. For Luke F-rd. Ohmigod, he's f---ing my ass. Yoowwwheeeee."

Kid Vegas: "He's f---ing her ass. Allright, bye."

GREETINGS FROM SIN CITY>>>>>>>>> Just wanted to tell you your site is rockin. Someone has to tell it like it is and it seems youre elected!! I dug the part about EROTICA L.A> where the guy pinched the chicks ass and Ron threw him out!! ha ha . i had a booth at the VERY FIRST Erotica L.A. which was actually the very best one. Since then its all gone downhill. MARQUIS Magazine even came from London for the first one (they were beside my booth) and said theyd never be back cause it should have been called PORNO LA , not EROTICA LA. It wasnt EROTICA thats for sure, I do EROTICA, ...very misnamed event dont you think?? Heres some new newzzzzzz forya. Im working with MIMI MIYAGI and will be shooting her box for her new film. Shes doing a her first movie in 5 years, her own production, which should be very interesting and progressive. The graphics certainly will be cause Ill be doing them!!! At any rate, keep up the good work. Glad you have a book coming out,youve got a good publisher. My book will be finished the end of this summer and Ive got some great subjects in it, DAVE NAVARRO, MARILYN MANSON, ERIC BURDON, STEVE JONES (SEX PISTOLS) ANKA, Legends Impersonators:Elvis, Marilyn & Liberace, GENITORTURERS, JULIE STRAIN, JENNIFER FLOWERS< MICKEY ROURKE, JOHN CAFFERTY and on and on and on , theres actually 40 celebrity shots in the book.JOHN GILMORE wrote the intro, as did CLIVE BARKER, and its to be called "SHootin from the HIP" . Keep up the good work Mr. FORD. FOREVER, IN ART>>>>>>JUSTICE HOWARD
