Chicago's Grab Magazine Pages

Here are a few pages from Chicago's Grab Magazine that I snagged and scanned.

The yellow page is some photos from the Folsom Street Fair in San Francisco.
The orange page is of Jason Pitt and Amanda Brandt's event at Spin in Chicago.

Grabby's Red Carpet

CoolTom took some red carpet photos from the Grabby's this past weekend. I always love getting the opportunity to visit Sister Roma on the red carpet. I did this particular event with Douglas Richter of CameraBoys.

Grabby's Red Carpet with CitiBoyz

Here are some photos from the Grabby Awards in Chicago this past weekend.

I got to take a photo with Steve Shay from Citiboyz and with Gage Powers from Citboyz. It's thanks to those two hooligans that I got my start in porn way back in something like 1492. (...or 2001, something like that.)

It was so cool to see them and see them looking so good.

Polly Pocket Coffee Table

I have lots of funny little stories, but this one make me chuckle.

...after seeing the other suites, I noticed that the other ones had a coffee table in front of the couches in the sitting room. (..maybe they removed mine. ...for whatever reason.)
One night, one of the nifty, new guys that I totally hope I see again, had pizza.
One of the boys used the small plastic thing they put in the pizza box to keep it from caving in on the pizza as the table. Yea, it's a one inch piece of plastic that you can see crushed in these photos after my promotional casino chips for the RentBoy.com Palm Springs Pool Party were set on the table.

My "Polly Pocket" table was crushed. Good thing none of our spirits were. The night went on, with our without a coffee table.

IML Chicago

ID Lube was kind enough to let us occupy some of their space at the Leather Market of the IML event. (Thanks, Nick, Greg and ID!) FabScout & JustUsBoys Magazine were the brokers for the weekend space and RentBoy.com, Manworks, and ID all enjoyed the fruits of IML and the leather world by being there.

Some of the highlights:

• I have long been a fan of Erik West. He's so hot and such a character. Now after meeting him and spending some more time talking to him over the weekend, I am more infatuated. He's really sexy and VERY entertaining.
  
• I got to see Rick Van Sant, seen here in the first photo. The last time I saw him, he was pulling a chain out of his ass at HustlaBall in Germany. He's so hot, I can't handle it. It was such a pleasure to see him.
• Erik and new star Aden Stone were rough housing and making many people hard watching. However, I think some people thought they were fighting and they told us to stop. You know it's a rentboy.com even when I almost get in trouble. HOT!
  
• I love that third photo of Bobby Clark. He looks so good in it. (It's the one where he's covered with the rentboy.com clipboard.) *wink* Even if I was a big fan of Bobby Clarks, I would never admit it. *blush*
• JimyVR manned the booth on of the days while we were at the Grabby's rehearsal. Thanks Jimy.
  
• I need to ask Adam Killian if it hurts to be that hot. He could stop traffic.
  
• Scott Tanner and Lucky Daniels stopped me. I was glad to get a photo of them too. I saw Scott Tanner in the elevator one morning trying to get out of the elevator. I showed him how to work the bottons. *wink* Let me know how that worked out for you Scott. *wink*
  
• Special thanks to Aden Stone and Tommy DeFendi who spent much of thier time at the booth looking sexy and interacting with guests. I always apprecaite that spirit and looking so sexy. Thanks, boys!
  

Having space at these events is fun and functional. (Does that mean we put the FUN in FUNctional?) It allows us a time to interact with the general pubilc that has a focus on what we do. I have time to get contact information to follow-up with people on questions and specific information. We can reach out to new talent, we can answer questions about the way the website works and what rentboy.com is all about. Even if someone does not stop by the booth, the brand awareness that we generate by having graphics and sexy boys to draw attention is priceless at time.

Special thanks to ID Lube for the booth space and thanks to Howard for making so much of the weekend's magic happen.

"Let's All Go to the Lobby."

It's a clean, crisp morning and clean, crisp drink of Vitamin C as we hang out in the lobby of the hotel in the morning. It was really vitamin C, I swear. I drink that to replenish any vitamins I may have lost the night before when I travel like this. Check out http://eboost.com/ if you want to do the same.
I have heard of getting paid under the table, but this is a little better. Wolf Hudson sneaks under the bench and grabbed Howard in the photo below.

The other side of the lobby was alive at night with same same lounging porn stars with just a little different light. (...really, it was dark, so there was different light.) *wink*

Wow, I took lots of photos of Scotty Brooks. Hot. He's a sexy new porn star, that I guess I subconsciously couldn't stop taking photos of.

Recovery Brunch in Robes

Here are some photos from the 'Grabby's Recovery Brunch'. Ryan Raz and I wore our hotel bathrobes to the event.
Ryan and I were talking early in the morning and we agreed that even if we didn't have a good reason to recover and we ended up going to be early, we would pretend we were were still drunk from the night before. I mean, we would have to wear the robes because we were coming in from the night before and would totally be "Recovering" at the brunch. However, we made provisions and even if we didn't have a good reason to be "recovering" from the night before, we had enough practice being fucked up. I "scraped myself up off the floor from the night before" and headed to the event in bathrobes.

It certainly helps to end up in more photos and have people talk, let me tell you. ...the crazier, the better. *wink* Plus, it was damn comfortable.
