Shooting recently wrapped for the fifth installment of Chi Chi LaRue’s Link series. This series exists in the darker side of Channel 1 with much attention devoted to water sports and other fetishes involving the backside and H2O.

There’s no need to go into the saucy details, just buy the movie! The set had to be the most filthy, dirty and borderline unsanitary environment I have ever experienced. Everything was staged in the basement of what is rumored to be an old slaughterhouse. I saw a lot more in the way of pipes and plumbing than a slaughterhouse, but I did see some hooks hanging from the ceiling and odd colored splotches on the walls. On the second floor CSI: Miami was filming something involving some grungy crime scene. It was also said that many horror movies and other CSI-ish series used this warehouse as well. It was disgustingly clear why.

I visited this “set” last year when I filmed my award-winning solo scene in Wrong Side of the Tracks. Then, I was only required to stand and do my thing up against the wall. This time around it was full on down and dirty on the nasty floor bare-assed with four other guys. The poor camera men looked as if they had just mined coal for 7 hours. The good part, we did a kick ass scene in no time flat and I met two really great guys; uber hot Brendan Davies and the smoldering Steve Cruz. I have to say that Mr. Cruz definitely earned his Rascal badges with what Chi Chi put this lad through. Pants off to you Steve, GR8 Job!

Beside that there was nothing more really to do this time around. Production on my end takes two days, one for stills and one for the actual scene to be shot. I also did a “Live and Raw” which is a jack-off show that is broadcast live once a day with a different model or models doing his or their thing. The studio is equipped with a chat operator and a chat room. It’s a two or three hour gig so I figure I might as well make them fun for me and everybody else. This broadcast on Thursday I had our chat operator, the talented DJ Rob put on one of his own mash-ups “Smells Like Kelly’s Behind”, a mash of Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” and Kelly Clarkson’s “Behind These Hazel Eyes” and I danced around like a fool, completely naked! DJ Rob specializes in mash-ups and this is one of my favorites.

I finished my 2006 contract last Thursday with the final scene of “When Bears Attack.” It was shot way out in the valley. Low December temperatures would normally send bears hibernating; however, the testosterone fuel cells of these “bears” were ignited by the chill. Before the scene was set up in the cabin, we all shot with Greg for the box cover. I stepped back for a moment from being mauled to get a shot of the bears at play.

Thursday (10/12), my scene with Adam Faust. I must say that I was quite impressed with him. He has two beautiful tattoos that he designed. They are tribal representations of a tiger and phoenix done in all black and even though they are somewhat abstract they remain fluid and strong. Great pieces done so well it made me want to cry. My next big tat is going to be designed by him, I made him promise. Coincidentally, he has also dabbled in designing t-shirts. When we got to talking I realized this guy is a bundle of creative energy.

Adam and I are the same height, so that combined with our artistic minds made for excellent on screen chemistry. It was really nice, very enjoyable. He’s a great kisser and has one of the finest asses I have had the privilege to encounter. HOOOOOOOOOOOT!

We had few props. A flat bed cart, some cardboard boxes filled with DVD’s and a ladder. We made use of them all, twice over. After we used the cardboard box I noticed that the combination of sweat and lube made for the cutest impression of my bum. This box was going to be shipped to a buyer of ours so we decided that it would be fun if I signed it.

Tuesday (10/10) I had two photo shoots back to back at one of my boss’ house… in his bedroom, in his bed! You gotta love that. It was revealed to me later that they were going to be the box covers for two movies that I will be in very soon. Rascal Video’s In His Dreams with Trent Atkins directed by the boss lady, Chi Chi LaRue. The second is titled Johnny Hazzard Feeds the Need, it has Adam Faust with me under the supreme direction of All Worlds director Doug Jeffries.

The head of the Channel 1 graphics department was on the set of the shoot and I was a bit confused. I have never seen him on any set before. It either meant that he was bored and wanted to be social or he wanted to make sure that the photos come out a certain way. I have done sooooo many of these that it’s no surprise they would want something fresh eventually. The vibe was glam - not a stretch for me. He wanted more shots that would be universal. I was in my element. I don’t have to worry about keeping my dick up and I get to lounge around on designer sheets the whole time. I was done with both shoots in just under 2.5 hours. They don’t call me crew favorite for nothing.

About my scene with Trent Atkins - talk about stunning eyes, his lashes and color are so incredible they ought to be insured by Lloyd’s of London. Our set was yet again a bed. This is so great. No saw horses to balance on, no chains to be suspended from and no tricky props to trip and scrape our knees on. We did a fine job, doing exactly what boss lady wanted before she had to tell us. Three hours from make-up to money shot. The Japanese could take lessons.

My day started at around 2 PM. That’s when I woke up. I walked to the Castro to have my first workout in what seemed like weeks. After 4 days of not working out I become irrational and sort of crazy. I attribute it to lack of dopamine and seratonin. It has been proven that exercising produces these chemicals. I’m sure you’ve heard of runner’s talking about that high they get. That’s pretty much it. I have none left, it’s all spent up from White Party and the stress that followed. It has been a good two weeks since my last workout and I feel really gross. My friend Sarah calls this body dismorphic disorder. That’s pretty accurate if you ask me.

My Mom always said be careful of what you say around who you meet and how you treat people because you never know. I’m glad I listened. I was at the power rack at the gym when this guy caught my eye looking inquisitively with a desire to approach me. I was in mid set so I had an excuse why I didn’t engage. I thought about avoiding eye contact when I was finished so I wouldn’t have to talk. I was in hermit mode today and didn’t feel like being social. But I turned around and made direct eye contact and turned down my iPod to say hello to the chap. It turns out he works very close by Bruno Gmunder in Berlin and was here on business. Bruno Gmunder is one of the largest distributors and producers of Gay Erotic material. They have taken a liking to me over there and have had me on both covers of the picture books they’ve done for Rascal. He personally paid for me and Eddie Stone to tour Europe; taking in 8 cities in 8 days for the tour and promotion of the first book. In his main store in Berlin they have a ceiling composed of glass plates that are pictures of good looking young men. My first city was Berlin.

After wrapping up Köllide and A Night At Bruno’s I went over to the store for the first official day of the tour. Upon my arrival they showed me the newest glass panel to be introduced to the wall of fame. It was a picture of me, the picture was the same one that graced the cover of the book I was touring for. Had I listened to my inner voice and taken the low road it would have turned out to be terrible PR - not to mention plain rude.

Tonight there was a small cocktail gathering at my friend Jerry’s place in Noe Valley. It was a fund raiser for his participation in the AIDS ride coming up. Kevin donated his masseur talents while others donated various goodies to be raffled off. My contribution was a copy of Wrong Side Part 1, a set of 5 autographed pictures and a Johnny Hazzard dildo. Not a bad bag. A friend that I have known for years from Boston was there and his BF had the winning ticket. Only minutes before we had been talking about his perception of me and how it was strange to see me now compared to what he knew in the BJ years (Before Johnny). Well, here’s one more change in your perception buddy - and it’s a big one! Sorry, I couldn’t let that one slip by. Jerry raised three G’s from the event. Not bad!
