It was another beautiful weekend, but I spent it indoors tearing down walls and ripping out carpeting (more on that later). And just in time for the young gay men to start experiencing a bit of spring fever, Falcon rolls out "Winter Heat", directed by John Bruno. I don't care what time of year it is, Roman Heart looks adorable and sinewy on the cover of "Winter Heat". And straight boy gay for pay Nash Lawler looks really beefy and buffed wearing long johns in his Falcon debut - IF you can get past the visual of him eating pussy in real life... Falcon's "Winter Heat" stars Roman Heart, Aden Jaric, Jordan Jaric, Justin Jameson, Eddie Diaz, Jude Collin, Nash Lawler, Kai Ford, and Vinnie D’Angelo

You will be hearing all about this for the next few weeks on Entertainment Tonight, Jay Leno, David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel, The Daily Show, Colbert Report, CNN, and every media outlet. Vivid Pictures has allegedly purchased a bootleg home made 8mm movie of guitar legend Jimi Hendrix having sex in a motel room with two girls sometime in the late 1960's. The frame grab below is about as sharp an image as you're going to get, so it's hard to say if it is real or not. They wanted to bring in some "experts" to verify if the man in the movie is actually Jimi Hendrix, so who would they dig up? Groupies, of course! A couple "loose" girls that had sex with Jim Hendrix back in the gay (who are now senior citizens) claim it's him, but others claim otherwise. They also interviewed a woman who made plaster castings of rock star penises. She showed the plaster casting of Jimi Hendrix's penis that she molded in 1968 to verify it. I am suspicious as to the validity of this movie simply because it took 40 years to unearth the movie. Why wasn't it released earlier? You can watch it online right now to see for yourself. Now that there is some renewed interest in vintage porn movies, I guess we better get moving on releasing my collection of old vintage gay porn movies on 8mm!

Saturday night I attended a fundraiser for the SF Fog, our local gay rugby team. It seems rugby is the new homoerotic sport these days. A couple years ago I watched a practice match with the Rebellion, the gay rugby team from LA. There were some pretty hot guys on that team, but gay rugby in general has gotten way more popular since then, so the San Francisco team has really attracted a very sexy group of players. They've even started a women's team, so there were a lot of super butch dykes at the party, too. I got there late and missed the spanking and man-auctions, but everyone was waiting in anticipation to see "The Full Monty". The video above shows the big production number in its entirety, and yes, they strip down to nothing but neckties and naked cocks at the end! A $30 donation to see young gay athletes strip naked? I'd say it was money well spent! The sample photo on the right was taken after The Full Monty when they auctioned off underwear worn by team members. Morning show hosts Fernando and Greg from radio station 92.7 were MC's and pulled in up to $150 each for pairs of used undies. Rugby has never been a popular sport here in the States. I remember back when I was in college, "Rugby 101" was always one of those obscure course offerings from the Phys. Ed. Department, but I went to a small Midwest university where everyone majored in smoking pot. They probably never got enough enrollments to actually offer the class. Soccer was another obscure sport back then, but fast forward to today and guess how American soccer teams are hoping to popularize the sport? They recruited David Beckham to make the sport sexy. I think gay rugby is taking the same approach. Now if only I could recruit enough young, sweaty, athletic, sinewy, rugby jocks to do a gay porn movie... hmmm. The key position on a rugby team is called the "hooker", so we're halfway there! The rest of the photos from SF Fog fundraiser are in the Lavender Lounge VIP Room under Paparazzi Pix, and more fun FREE videos are available at Lavender Lounge Video Blog, (with embed codes readily available to share the video on other gay porn blog sites).

"An erect phallus is a symbol of life, a cross a symbol of death." As reported in Gay Porn Times, legendary gay porn director Jean Daniel Cadinot passed away of a heart attack on Wednesday, April 23 at age 64. Below is his final blog entry: "My final bow Wednesday 23 April 2008 Dear friends, critics and others, If you're reading these words I will have put down my camera, switched off the lights, drawn the curtains and taken my final bow. May all the efforts and work of a whole life, the quest for the moment of pure truth in the sublime communion of two beings under the spell of the undefinable desire for the other, inspire those who inherit my heart. The human being is made such that it only remembers the good and the beautiful, therefore I leave you with a free mind and a head overflowing with a myriad of young men, sometimes strong and vigorous, sometimes fragile and sensitive. All of them gave me these unforgettable moments of their most tender intimacy, moments that only a few really know but which I made in to images to allow you to admire them over and over again. Never were success or personal fortune my creed. You offered me gratitude, and I thank you for that because I wanted nothing else. Cadinot salutes you. Remember a kindly fellow, an extreme observer given to rages and contradiction but who listened to others and was full of love." His career in erotica began in 1972 when he first began to shoot nude photographs and over the next six years produced some 17 photo albums that sold several hundred thousand copies. He formed French Art in 1978 with the release of TENDRES ADOLESCENTS. He viewed filmmaking as gay activism: “”The still photo became too limiting. I quickly reached its boundaries and I had a desire for action and movement,” he once said. “I wanted to go further, to tell our collective stories as gay men. Video enabled me to do just that. I have to say that when I’m shooting photos I prefer to work as an artist and make artistic photos because otherwise it’s not long before it gets pornographic and I don’t like that. In that sense there was a progressive evolution towards films in order for me to tell stories about men. In a way it was my first gay activism to illustrate our sexual stories.” Jean-Daniel Cadinot’s films were celebrated for their sensual imagery and plot-driven narratives. He would write, produce and direct some 60 films over three decades; he won Best Director from the GAYVN Awards in 1991 for THE TRAVELING JOURNEYMAN, and Best Director honors (in 1997 and 2001) from the Venus Awards in Berlin. In 2001 he was inducted into the GAYVN Hall of Fame. JEAN DANIEL CADINOT MOVIES AVAILABLE AT TLA VIDEO

I don't know why, but for the past few months I've had a secret desire to buy a motorhome. I've begun sneaking glances at Craig's List - not for the Men For Men listings, but to look at the listings "RV's For Sale". I look at way too much porn in my regular job, so when I want to web surf for something taboo and naughty, I go right to the motorhomes. The boyfriend rolls his eyes when I talk about it, but I think he'll come over to the darkside once I take him away for a relaxing weekend somewhere in the woods. Apparently, I'm not the only one with a motorhome fetish either. Falcon Studios has been renting motorhomes for their Jocks series of "Road Trips". In Volume 4, the smooth, sinewy muscle jocks take a trip down the California coast to the scenic Big Sur. I've had the pleasure of driving down Highway 1 along the coast from San Francisco to LA only once, but the scenery around Big Sur is something I'll never forget. The word "awesome" is so over-used, but it's one of the few words that can describe it. The free sample video from Road Trip 4 Big Sur focuses on just the hardcore fucking, sucking, cum in your face, ass-rimming aspects of the movie, but I am hoping they got lots of scenery, too. Take six horny dudes out on the road. Turn them loose and watch what happens. Road Trip Vol. 4 is more than just a journey down to Big Sur. It’s a sexual tsunami on the California coast where unabashed and unrelenting cocksucking, assmunching and fucking climax with torrential splashes of cum. Cast features Shane Erickson, Scott Fremont, Jason Michaels, Orlando Dawson, Tristan Phoenix, and Brandon Matthews. FALCON XXX - BUY DVD - MORE FREE FALCON GAY PORN

Hard Choice Awards - The 14th Annual Hard Choice Awards (for films reviewed in 2007) Onan the Vulgarian continues to put out his list of awards, though his home base magazine, X Factor has just morphed into XX Factor. With these awards, though, he proudly proclaims, "No party, no fanfare, no shindig, no porn stars, no statuettes. No lifetime achievement awards, no drag queens, no envelopes, no acceptance speeches, no Ms. Congeniality. Just the year's best in all-male porn. Guaranteed to keep you hard." In “Junkman’s Obbligato,” beat poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti wrote that he yearned to go to a place “where turtles win.” I like to think of 2007 as the year that turtles won. Not to disparage the hares of the industry, it was gratifying (and I hope readers agree, whether or not their names or their favorites are on this list) to see so much variety in 2007. “Little guys” produced some mighty big results, and “big guys” who never won before surged into greater prominence. Chief among the latter was Raging Stallion. In a time when pundits warn of the demise of DVDs, producer-director Chris Ward and co-director Ben Leon had the cojones to mastermind a 6-disc, 20-hour sexual marathon called Grunts, and to sell it for over $100. It simply blew everyone out of the water; not only was it good, it was very, very good — and it sold like hotcakes. Grunts is now the War and Peace (War and Piece?) of gay porn, and it’s the line drawn in the sand for those who say the DVD is dead. Kristen Bjorn is another perfect example of the turtle metaphor. To quote another poet, Gerard Manley Hopkins, “Sheer plod makes plow down sillion shine,” or slow and steady wins the race. This director has been turning out masterpiece upon masterpiece, for twenty years. Perhaps it’s because people are accustomed to expecting nothing less than brilliance that not a lot gets said when Bjorn delivers it. In 2007, he gave us left-right knockout punch with El Rancho and Rocks & Hard Places. Other studios and other directors continue to produce high quality films that are both art and erotica — something that cannot be matched by scenes shot for websites. Lucas Kazan gives us lust and romance; Michael Lucas gives us complex characters, whether tragic or comic, for whom sex and life are inseparable. If I don’t name anyone else, it’s not because there are none to name, but because there’s no way to properly acknowledge the value of everyone’s contributions. Several performers galvanized attention in 2007, and deciding on a performer of the year really was a hard choice. Jesse Santana got the nod, not only because of the variety of his work for several studios and online producers, but for his sexual versatility, a couple of fine thespian turns and the reliability with which he gave one compelling performance after another. Steve Cruz was an easier choice for newcomer. The perfect physical foil to Santana, Cruz is a guy who openly relishes anything sexual, and who’s giving back to the industry and to the community with his own safer sex website and educational outreach. Visit him at How I Roll. Studios outside of the USA made such an exceptional showing in 2007 that I decided to give separate awards to Film, Director and Actor for films shot on foreign turf. This is the first time the Hard Choice Awards have recognized work initially produced for Internet consumption, but if you’ve paid attention to the stuff the Bryan Ockert is doing with Chaos Men, you know that not only has he created new niches in a genre where you’d figure there are none left, but he’s put sex between the ears again. Last year, Titan Media founder Bruce Cam said farewell to the industry. This man is so formidable with a camera in his hand that anything in his viewfinder lays down at his feet and gives up its wonders. Cam has packed up his camera and director’s chair in favor of other pursuits, exiting grandly with Breakers, which will certainly factor into next year’s Hard Choice Awards. And Barcelona’s Private Man, which appears several times in the list below, decided to cease production of its gay film lines; that was disappointing.

Michael Lucas's hit comedy "The Intern" is now available on pay per view exclusively at MaleFlixxx.tv. The producers made it very clear that this was an "intentional" comedy because there is so much crap released in porn that becomes UN-intentionally funny. This one is a comic send up of "Ugly Betty" and it's really well done. But that's not all! A contest to win an “Intern” prize pack is part of an integrated marketing campaign that will promote “The Intern” to Maleflixxx users. Customers that purchase a $69.99 viewing package will have the opportunity to win a prize pack, which includes a DVD copy of the director’s editions of “The Intern” and “Gigolo,” both from Lucas Entertainment, as well as “The Intern” star Ben Andrews’ signature dildo. Going on coffee runs, copying documents, answering phones, typing emails... and stocking up on lube? When you`re an intern at a gay adult entertainment company, it`s all in a day`s work. Lucas Entertainment exclusive Ben Andrews stars in the sex comedy "The Intern," where Botox-injecting bosses (Michael Lucas), sassy assistants (new Lucas exclusive Christian Cruz), and beefy delivery men (Matt Cole) abound. "Ugly" Benny maneuvers his way through the wacky, sexy offices of Trojan Studios, but his co-workers soon discover he may have a "bigger" talent in his pants. Also starring Lucas exclusives Jonathan Vargas and Ray Star, plus Derrick Hanson, Jason Ridge, Jimmy, and Zack Randall. Written and Directed by Tony Dimarco. With his totally "uncool" attire and wide-rimmed glasses, nerdy Benny (Lucas exclusive Ben Andrews) makes his way through the busy streets of New York City to the office of gay porn company Trojan Studios, where he wants to apply in person for an internship. Ben is mistakenly herded into a porn star casting call conducted by super-diva boss Alexander Mann (Michael Lucas) when all he really came for was the office internship. Sassy assistant Christian (Lucas exclusive Christian Cruz) apologizes for the mix-up and hires Benny on the spot. Benny`s first day on the job finds him getting coffee and assisting on a chaotic shoot between two hot models (Lucas exclusive Jonathan Vargas and hottie Jason Ridge). Alexander directs the cheesy dialogue and hot sex, which features the two models sucking each other`s huge dicks, flip-flop fucking, and taking on a huge black double-headed dildo. During the filming, Christian is shocked to notice a giant bulge forming in Ben`s pants. Back in the company stockroom, two beefy straight dudes (Jimmy and Zack Randall) are busy talking pussy while stacking boxes of Liquid Spanish Fly. Theya box, and as they clean up the green gooey mess, a strange urge brews between them… and before they know it they`re making out, sucking cock, licking ass, and fucking. Jimmy`s big uncut member drills Zack on the table top, and Zack discovers a talent for sucking his own dick while sucking Jimmy`s at the same time. The office gets a huge box delivered by hunky delivery guy Massimo (Matt Cole). Alexander (Michael Lucas) is pissed to hear that it is the oversized prototype for his dildo. Massimo sticks around for the signature and reveals to Alexander his ambition to be a porn star. Alexander auditions him on the office table with a heavy suck and fuck session that includes a "helicopter" spin. They negotiate an exclusive model contract right before their nuts burst in orgasm.

I think this is self-explanatory - and self-medicating. I think VividBlurry needs to add this to his combination Bodybuilding Supplements / Anti-Depression Regiment.

Jesse Metcalfe will forever be known as the sexy gardener from Desperate Housewives. I first got hooked on that show simply because of the beefcake shots of Jesse Metcalfe mowing the lawn shirtless and making it with Eva Longoria's character. Young stars often have one moment of outstanding beauty, and sooner than you think, the bloom is off the rose, or we just grow weary of him and move onto the next pretty young object of desire. There were rumors Jesse Metcalfe was a "problem" on the set of Desperate Housewives which caused him to get kicked off the show. Other gossip columnists loved to tease that his fifteen minutes were up. And there have also been reports of him awkwardly trying to force his way into clubs with the old line, "Don't you know who I am?" Bad form, darling. He has an ongoing feud with Perez Hilton because Perez loves to draw cum dribbles coming out of Jesse Metcalfe's mouth and make accusations about him being gay. As far as I'm concerned they're both assholes, but Jesse Metcalfe is at least HOT. Did I mention how TOTALLY HOT Jesse Metcalfe looks in these photos? Beefy, hairy chest, tattooed, bearded - yum. Or maybe it's just the vintage Corvette. That'll make anyone look sexier.

It's a bit premature to start promoting it, but The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence are bringing Bingo back! After an exhaustive search for a new location, we will be holding our monthly Bingo at The Green Room at the Marines Memorial Building right across from City Hall in San Francisco. I don't have any other details other than Sister Barbi asked me to work on a piece of art for the poster. Since it's a "Revival" of Bingo, and the "Resurrection" of legalized gambling made so popular by generations of good Catholics, I chose a classic art piece entitled "The Ascension of Jesus" as the basis for the poster. It still needs a little work, but I sent out this rough draft over the weekend to the other Sisters for their reactions. Well, it was the talk of the town all weekend! If you thought the scandal about that Last Supper poster from Folsom Street Fair caused a stir, wait till this hits the internets! When the poster and publicity is all done, we're planning on sending a whole press packet right to the Bill Donahue from The Catholic League and Bill O'Reilly from Fox News.
