So I think it's time to post a more updated Press Release. Here's the one from Skin Two:

EXOTICA DETROIT 4 NOVEMBER 7-9th 2008

Past guests have used words like "overwhelming" and "outrageous" to describe Exotica fetish weekends. The product of fetish model Vena and circus hellion Chaos, Exotica has become one of the top fetish weekends in the United States and essential for US and international fetish partygoers.

On November 7th - 9th, EXOTICA 4 in Detroit is hosted by Tim Woodward of Skin Two. Emily Marilyn hosts the VIP room, together with Ruby Luster. Featured guests include a Who's Who of the fetish world - personalities such as Steve Diet Goedde, Perry Gallagher, Angela Ryan, Mistress Persephone, Aradia Ardor, Noir Halo, Larry Bradby, Vivian Irene Pierce, Nicotine, London Shadows, Evelyn Rose, We Are Latex - and more confirming each day. Exotica is about excess - the previous weekend featured over 75 performers in 48 stage shows!

The 3 day Expo features dozens of vendor booths, displaying the best in fetish clothing, adult toys, erotica, art and jewellery. Half a dozen afternoon educational BDSM workshops are presented each day by experts such as Steve Diet Goedde, Nawa G and Lil J, Charlie B, Don Sir, Aradia Ardor and many more. A one thousand square foot dungeon play area is available all day long. Exotica 4 also marks the debut of latex couture designer Frenchy LaRue and fetishwear designer Hilary's Vanity. Joining them in the fashion shows will be designers Ego Assassin, Ceres Moon, House of Bias, Leather Realm, Noo Moon, Grey Gargolye and Exquisite Restraint Corsets. On Friday November 7th, the SLICK! party and fashion shows are located in Clutch Cargos, a former church turned into a concert hall.

Saturday night's EXOTICA SKIN TWO BALL features the best of the stage shows, with top national acts such as Chaos Productions, Pain Tribe, Vena's Evil Dolls, Acid Rain, and Miss Pussy Kat - star of America's Got Talent!

To take advantage of the new half million dollar sound system at the Crofoot Ballroom, Exotica's enormous lineup of dance DJs is joined by guest DJs including Stitch (Mushroomhead), Curse Mackey (My Life with the Thrill Cult and Pigface) and New York's Xris (SMack!) If you prefer a more intimate setting, enjoy the VIP Lounge upstairs, where there's a separate roster of national acts as well as a play area.

Detroit's top rock radio station has committed to extensive coverage of Exotica 4, as have many other stations throughout Michigan and Ohio. The event hotel is the luxurious Auburn Hills Marriott, which offers a huge discount to our guests - only $99 per night - as well as a complimentary shuttle bus between all event venues, through the day and night. Be sure to ask for the special Exotica 4 rate - ask for Sylvia. Hotel details are here - http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/dtwp...-at-centerpoint

Well, I made my purchase of a ticket for the weekend. It has been a long time since I have been to a fetish night (Bound DC Summer Masquerade Ball 2004,) so I am looking forward to it.

Wouldn't mind sharing a room with someone staying in the host hotel.

There's a pool party? I had no idea... Is there somewhere to see a schedule?

I wanted to, but I am working all day Thursday in Flint and wouldn't be able to make it until very late. Plus, I would FREEZE!

[Destroit]

I dunno if it would really be my thing...

I've never been to one yet, but I dunno, I don't like going to events full of half naked women that look 800x better than I do. Call me jealous and shallow because I am . Maybe when I was actually still in shape and good looking I may have gone, so I'll work on that as I have been recently, and maybe go next year...?

Your an ass, your one of the hottest out there.

*fingers in ears* La la la la not listening la la la

I don't think you understand how much of a perfectionist I am . I'm "okay" looking, I'm definately not hot like I was 2 years ago when I was a scant 135 and had sexy supermodel abs, soooooo once I get my old figure back I'll probably be down for these types of events. Until then...my low self esteem can't handle such things . I'll give it a try next year when I could give those models a run for their money, but this year I just KNOW I would have a shitty time because of how I feel about myself...

you are going to make us sit you down and verbally beat the contrary into your head? ...come on, even your vomit is sexy.

*runs like hell*

In all seriousness, I concur with my colleague prick. And we have been to many a fetish event. And I am not the dashing man of action I used to be (and fighting back to that body myself.) and I am going.

I can understand that. I felt a little uncomfortable being my age and having had 3 kids at the pool parties at Fetishcon with all those yummy models and me in my bikini. It didn't last long though. It actually ended up making me more comfortable in the end.

By the way, I just booked my room!

I'm getting so excited!

I might be sick for work the next three days due to excitement related nausea

The beauty of fetish is that it goes against the traditions of mainstream society. That's why you see fetish models with tattoos, piercings, and multi-colored hair. Likewise, the traditional stick figure is not necessarily considered ideal in the fetish world, perhaps that's why we enjoy our roles as the "outcasts" of society. Curves are where it's at to us...

Some of the sexiest women in the fetish world are the curviest ones. It's all about how you carry yourself. Be proud of who you are, and don't ever be ashamed of your body. In the end, nobody else will notice but you.

If you come to Exotica, please come see me and introduce yourself.

Well put, Vena.

I love that the fetish world has people of all shapes & sizes. Regular society "size 4" rules simply don't apply, as you see fetishes involving every body type out there combined with people *truly* enjoying themselves! It's a world I have enjoyed navigating over the last 12 yrs.

See you all there this weekend!

*checks your perfect profile pictures* Easy for you to say

But in any case, we are, apparantly going. Pestilence talked me into it, and while I thank all of you for trying to boost my ego a little bit, I still feel iffy about it. I just...I dunno what I look like now isn't my preference and I'm not even remotely happy with it, but it's what I got atm and at least I'm working on it. BUT...since I vowed to myself I was going to start to find a positive with every negative (try, doesn't always work, but this time it did) I will say that going to Exotica this weekend will at least serve as some motivation for the upcoming few months . Pest also told me it wasn't just as assload of half naked girls running around but there's usually a few hot half naked dudes around, which is the main reason I agreed to go (I figured it was a Taco Fest, and since I'm not even slightly attracted to girls, for me there would have been no point).

I believe we're going Friday, but since it was Pest's idea, I'm not sure. I do know his cousin will be going with us, some of you may have met him on Friday and his DGN sn is Deadyeti (he's really new).

So that's that, I guess I'll see everyone there.

[The evil fish]

We'll be there - how could we not?

[Ice Queen (1)]

someone's going to have to tie my hands so I don't molest everybody

[The evil fish]

LOL! I'm sure there will be enough there to go around... don't you?

[TheOsakaKoneko]

I'm looking forward to meeting a whole lot more new people! Most of the people who are saying they are going here I haven't actually met, so I look forward to meeting you all! Is everyone going all 3 days?

[Msterbeau]

someone's going to have to tie my hands so I don't molest everybody

Now what fun would that be? For you and them...

[taysteewonderbunny]

I'm going! I'm going! Word is I'm going. Yay. (Actually, word was and has been, but I forgets these things--so many busy weekends in a row.)
