I was driven to renovate this World-Wide Web page
after learning about the turbulence at Sleeping Village when
it hosted a presentation of “queer” erotica
one January night in 2023. Sleeping Village is a venue I visit
for its craft beer selections, but I had no idea it had done this.
I would have attended!
Further, in
the linked article; I was obliquely referenced!
I am conscious that people working at or frequenting a licensed venue to not want to undergo a “toxic atmosphere” there. An erotic video can contribute to that. However, one must also contemplate that some aspects of the activities listed above could also run afoul: ‘Inappropriate’ trivia questions, eyebrow-raising songs sung in karaoke {forget R. Kelly - how about those misogynistic Rolling Stones songs like "Under My Thumb", the Beatles' "Run For Your Life", or anybody's salvo at "Hey Joe"?}, or dreadful attempts at ‘humor’ at open mikes.
Theodore Sturgeon, a science writer [usually referenced as ‘science fiction’], has become reknown for his observation "90% of everything is crud." He scribed this in the context of what literature was being published in “pulp” magazines, but it has been applied to any number of entertainments proferred, including erotic movies and videos.
I myself have not emceed at the Twisted Spoke since
2008. I recall once (in the 20th Century), just once, when upon arriving
there I was told by bar staff, "Don't show anything with
dicks." I motored back to the abode here, fended off a query
about why; and dug out two softcore VHS videos. But by the next
week, the situation had been mollified.
I presented at
two other venues after that. One was demolished for the C.T.A.
Brown Line flyover, and the second has been closed for code violations
for a number of years.
Those of you who attended one of my shows know that a number of the videos programmed, while aimed at heterosexual audiences, were directed by GLBTQ+ persons, unspooled homoerotic content, and had performers who worked in both genrés.
My library has only gotten larger in the succeeding
years. I utilized the days during the COVID-19 pandemic we were
instructed to, "Stay safe. Stay at home." to view any number
of the Japanese Adult Videos brought back (some of which were
four hours long). Many, if not most of these videos are not
effectively copyrighted in the U.S.A.
The erotic videos
I would present are the ten percent of smut which are not crud.
They are videos with direction, videography, plots, and real
acting.
Particularly in the instances of the videos I have
which were made in Europe, Brazil, and Japan, people have never
seen them.
But yes; they could also be considered to
administer in a
What else should you possess? A P.P.E. license for "Adult" entertainment; a lawyer who is knowledgeable how to respond if a complaint is made to a licensing body; and perhaps most crucially, a reasonable relationship with your Ward Aldercritter. (I will converse with any representative of the Aldercritter including the Aldercritter.) (If the answer is, "I'll give you the license; but you should make a donation to this not-for-profit organization.", retort he | she is sounding like Ed Burke.)
I would still enjoy presenting my videos (somewhere | anywhere). You contact me via E-Mail at qsmut2.pudgym29 [at] xoxy.net.
