26/05/14: We descended upon Shoreditch’s hallowed basement of laser lights and burning beats for a different sort of night to the norm – Fairy Beary!
As part of Bearfest 2014, it pulled some of the sexiest and most muscled hairy guys in the city into the ‘Bloc to growl and grr and huh-huh-honey! We were in our dreamland baby, and we woke up with a Macho Slut at EastBloc, around six to be exact: Per QX, Done & Dusted (Alan X/Lewis Lenin). Andrew Moore, Ray Noir and Ursula Snakes all joined forces to give the Bank Hols one last kick in da rump to close out the weekend with a banger!
Hardest working manager in town Wayne, takin-none-o’-yo-shit Diego, and the whole crew kept not only Monday morn Macho Sluts but the entire weekend trippin tidy for every kid on the block. Main Room dynamic duo Done & Dusted swirled some deep, “happy filthy spacey grooves” as biggie Alan X tagged it.
Then Per QX, doin’ double duty from Guttersluts, grabbed the wheel and swerved that car right off the road into the abyss and had us freefallin’ weightless for all eternity. Other ‘sluts from the Gutter’ hobbled in on their broken heels and bruised knees to add some class with a capital ‘K’ to the day.
Bernie and Charlie dragged their post-nuclear Metropolis meltdown to the EB cellar to have one last blow-out with the few remaining survivors before starvation and cannibalism set in.
Salome, aka Ms. Charlie, danced her shorts down to her ankles and didn’t even know it til she did a catwalk spin and her brows and balls hit the floor so fast I thought the Pope had just walked in!
Huddled in the back room Andrew Moore filled us with hopeful funk-bop and Ursula Snakes kept our weary spirits alive with her own brand of hyper-happy ceiling-shakers. But, of course, who else would you expect to find at the apocolypse feasting on the dead and not-yet-dead? DJ Ray Noir! Like black smoke, his dark rock tattooed cock turned a ship o’ fools into a groove tomb making the end of the world seem pretty damn cool.
We opened the hatch Mon aftenoon, clambered out, zombies re-born—and hungry!
