Fetish Grand Prix - 07.11.09
I'm a big supporter of the fetish and BDSM community wherever I go. However, in some places, like the Czech Republic, the community is a little more closed and difficult to get into. Thus, I was really excited when I heard about a big fetish party happening 4 times a year in Brno. They started having their events the same week as I started having mine. So we are both one year old now, I suppose. Sadly, schedules and logistics prevented me from attending Fetish Grand Prix...until now. Lily and I, fresh from the Sinless birthday party, headed down south to Moravia to see it for ourselves.
We arrived late. (As always...We will be late to our own funerals.) We were pleasantly surprised to see many friends from Sinless parties and we received a warm welcome. The hotel bar and side room were dark wood and greens, pretty standard for a Czech pub. They were playing some video projections from the last FGP, some latex fashion show, and the room was full of people in costumes, mostly latex. Straight away I got to meet the organizer of FGP, Sadaam. I was happy to see that he was much younger than I had imagined. He had something of the devil in his eyes, and was wearing a pointed tail. Later, I discovered he has a canine side of himself. Indeed, a very interesting man.
Lily and I sat down and settled in. The video clips continued and then some latex vacuum demonstrations from Eurocatsuits.com, followed by dinner. The food was damn good. My steak was worth every haler.
But after dinner, I sort of lost the plot...the night didn't really have a structure or shows or anything that moved the energy forward. People hung out and drank and talked. We asked some guests if there was any action, any play at this party and most people shrugged their shoulders and said, "No, we just sit and talk, mostly." That was a bit disappointing. Lily and I are all for being social, but when we go out to a club, we want to play.
Lily was begging me for a spanking. I tried hard to find something to connect to in these two rooms...something that inspired me, something that allowed me to connect to my own sense of power and something that made me feel sexy and want to get into a scene with my slave. But I simply did not feel it. This hotel bar contained nothing of the sensual. I took Lily into the adjacent room. It was brightly lit and some pop music was playing. Nonetheless, I was determined. I looked for a corner, a spot to get into role, a place to play. There simply was none. Every corner was taken over by amateur photographers. There was even some documentary crew there with multiple video cameras. The room was a blaze of never-ending camera flashes. I am very comfortable with being in fetish photos online and I respect that some material is needed for promoting future events, but this was way over the top- even for me. There was nowhere to stand in the room without being in a shot. A few images is ok, but this was over an hour of constant photography and video.
So we moved back to the bar and shifted gears. If the name of the game is talking, then we talk. We set ourselves to talking with friends, old and new. We met many wonderful people there and had some great conversations. Everyone was beautifully dressed. You could tell these people really cared about their appearance. Almost every single person there was in latex. Oddly enough, they were a little bit confused about our costumes. We are not latex fetishists. (Indeed VinyLily is "VinyLily" for a reason) But it seems in Moravia they did not ever think to separate the two. For them: latex = fetish and there is nothing else. We tried to explain that we are fetishists of a different kind and that we don't wear latex, but we received mostly blank stares. Sure latex is a great fetish, but it's not the only fetish, now is it? If you were a bondage artist who was allergic to latex, what would you wear to a party?
Anyway, we chatted and chatted and even though our intent was not self-promotion (I chose not to bring Sinless flyers to the party, I would be pissed off if someone came to my party to promote themselves) many people were very curious about Sinless and Lily found herself talking about it quite a bit. Then, Lily found herself drawn to the lightning flashes of the photo room. Our friend, the lovely Honeyhair was there with her man doing some sets, and Lily got in on the scene. They had fun, posing together and playing with Lily's lovely dress.

I started to relax a bit more and that allowed me to pull back into a meta-state and begin to see FGP for what it is: a gathering of individuals who just want a place to be themselves. It was wonderful to realize this, that the whole event is not aimed at a specific goal, rather it is about camaraderie...kinky camaraderie.
Finally Lily couldn't take it anymore. She needed to be disciplined. I was enjoying the relaxing vibe of the place now, and couldn't be bothered to actually do something to her, so I made her my footstool. Naturally, whenever a pretty girl is on her hands and knees, it gathers attention. The whole room was riveted upon us. Then our friend, Certicka with a naughty smile on her face, was lead over to us by her man. She was on a lead and her hands were tied behind her back. She asked my permission to touch my slave. This impressed me hugely, as I find most people don't do that anymore. They just touch and grab and grope. I granted her permission and she settled herself behind my slave. Honeyhair came in shortly thereafter and proceeded to play with the front end of my footstool. At this point, the whole club is drooling. And I can't say I blame them - it was a delicious sight. After about 20 minutes of Certicka's lingual ministrations, I grabbed my footstool by her neck and ordered her to come. She did as she was told.
After this, it simply felt like it was the right time to leave. We made our goodbye's and departed.
The Revelator gives Fetish Grand Prix an 8 out of 10. I'm amazed at the simple power of gathering people together. Kinky camaraderie. What FGP lacks in entertainment and play, it makes up for in a special kind of energy and warmth of it's guests. I definitely plan on returning and I sincerely hope that Sadaam will come to Sinless someday. The world of fetish - especially here in Czech Republic - needs unity, if it is to grow and thrive. From Prague to Brno and back again. Rev out.
