German Fetish Fair - 12pm to 8pm
@ MesseHalle Hamburg-Schnelsen
Modering 1a

Tickets (valid both expo days): 20 Euro (Presale and at the door)

What shall we say, most of you probably know the German Fetish Fair. We started it 2004 and since then the premier fetish expo in Germany grew from year to year and this year is no exception, there is no other fair or expo offering a wider range of fetish clothing, bdsm gear and related products in Germany or continental Europe. So when you are looking for some shopping, you shall drop by! And the tickets this year allow you the re-entry also on the second day of the fair, so come have a look and after you regret not buying the one or other thing, come back and get it before the big Ball.

Well, since I hardly found much left to explain about the German Fetish Fair, what shall I say about the Ball? This is the main event, the height of the fetish season in Germany, the biggest and most popular fetish event in Germany and in continental Europe, with over a thousand guests from around the world, great shows, several dancefloors, a pool, a bondage lounge and so on. You'll have to see it, to know why so many believe this to be one of the must attend events world-wide.

Crimson is a new Fetish/BDSM club that specialises
in playing the best Rock, Metal and Alternative music

CRIMSON'S FIRST BIRTHDAY BALL, 10TH APRIL AT MASS
(ST MATTHEWS CHURCH, BRIXTON HILL, LONDON SW2 1JF)

Can you believe it. Crimson is already one year old and we invite you to join us
in celebrating with a fun filled night of dancing and debauchery.

We have lined up some great acts for this event, including a twisted magical
performance by Michael Coffey, a fashion show by Libertinesque, who will
be bringing along some of their new ranges to show and entice you, and
rumour has it that ESIMEM will be returning to our stage to blow your
minds with his very own brand of Shibari madness.

We will of course have all your favourite dungeon kit courtesy of Dungeon Equipment UK
spread out in our 2 large dungeon areas, there will be a medical area and couples play room
with our DJ's will be playing the best rock, metal and alternative music through out the night.

After some confusion with the door staff at our last event we will be enforcing the no street clothes
rule with full effect. If you are found in the club wearing jeans, t-shirt or any normal club wear you
will be asked to leave without a refund so make sure you make an effort and dress to impress
(or undress to impress for that matter).

Our dress code is strictly fetish i.e. latex, pvc, leather, fantasy, military, burlesque,
medical, sexy undies, smart suits (pimp, pin stripe, top hat and tails), drag etc. etc..
No T-shirts or blue jeans are allowed under any circumstances.

Club RUB’s new venue, the Lightbox, has been a great success but the medical themed party on the 13th will be just down the road at the Colosseum, 1 Nine Elms Lane, Vauxhall, London SW8 5NQ. The venue change is just for this one night – then RUB will be back at the Lightbox.

March2010Want to play doctors and nurses? Club RUB on March 13th 2010 is the place to get it kissed better! Is there a doctor in the house?

Everyone loves a nurse and we all love the uniform. Medical costumes come in many colours and guises. Just remember guys - absolutely no 'normal' trousers under those doctors coats. It's always nice to make your own. Buy a lab coat or scrubs and embelish with a selection of these sissors. You can easily sew 10 to 20 pairs onto your outfit as they are very cheap. Or these body parts. Eyeballs. Sweets in the shape of body parts. Jelly willies sewn onto your outfit is a great way to chat up the ladies by offering them one! These fingers are perfect. Or come as a dentist and attach these. A silly take on the theme is a MUMMY. Zombie doctor in need of medical attention. Don't be telling me you can't afford an outfit you guys! No 'normal' trousers.

Mental inspiration. Add a homemade nurses hat to any dress.

Take a look at the performance line up this month. It's very impressive.

This month there will be a couple of market stands selling medical paraphernalia and even demonstrations from the stall holders during the night.

Edgeplay will bring their line of products and demonstrate needle play. Brings some cash.

Shaydes from Under Wraps will be selling his wares and performing a few demonstrations. If you fancy being wrapped up or feel some of his products would enhance your outfit see if he needs another model. Or buy a roll and ask him for help with applying it.

He offers both wide and mini rolls of pallet wrap in various colours and their accessories. Also cohesive bandage (commonly known as Vetrap – rubberised bandage). All of this is great for outfits and mummification (please use responsibly). It’s Mother’s Day on Sunday and he's up for mummy-fication!
