Texas- Pleasure Productions and Evolution Erotica have signed on as exclusive sponsors of Lone Star Pornutopia II and The First Annual Ink Houston, the “More Than Just An Expo” adult and tattoo convention, to be held November 8th-10th at the Bella Aida Gardens in Houston, Texas.
“This is a fan-based show for those who don’t get a chance to go to Las Vegas (for the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo),” said John Gray of Adult Quest Magazine, host of the event. “We had 6,500 attendees last year, and we’re hoping to double that amount this year.”
More than 45 adult stars and feature entertainers will be on hand, including Pleasure’s contract girl, best-new-starlet of the year contender Tera Wray, as well as Houston’s own Tom Byron, alt-porn pioneer Matt Zane, and adult legend Ron Jeremy. Also scheduled to appear is Exotic Dancer Entertainer Of The Year 2006 Jade Simone St. Clair, who will be performing along with Vivian West, Trina Michaels and Angelica Wild.
XXX stars scheduled to apper include: Trisha Uptown, Jada Fire, Jack Napier, Tyler Faith, Summer Haze, Olivia O’Lovely, Mr. Marcus, Paulina James, Flower Tucci, and the Bunny Ranch girls from the HBO hit series Cathouse. Gray said there would also be fashion shows, live music, from the band Lonestar Pornstars and appearances from UFC fighters like Din Thomas and Sam Hoger (“The Alaskan Assassin”).
Gray said Matt Zane Productions’ Tattoo & Tight series, the only hardcore adult movies to feature porn stars having real sex while getting real tattoos, will be a main feature of Ink Houston.
Special Events planned for LSP II, according to Gray, include the opening party Wednesday night at The Men’s Club, club hops between Rick’s North and The Penthouse Club (Thurday night) and Hottyz and Score’s Cabaret of Houston (Friday night), and the closing party Saturday night at The Ritz Cabaret. Also on Saturday night, Tera Wray will Host the First Annual Houston Adult Entertainment Hall of Fame Awards.
“We decided to start a Houston Adult Entertainment Hall of Fame Awards this year as a way of honoring those that have allowed us, through the years, to enjoy adult entertainment that quite a few people have taken for granted will be here forever,” says Gray. “But with the state of affairs across the country we would like to acknowledge certain people that have done some great things not only here in Houston, but across the country.”
Expo times for the three day event are 4 – 8 pm Thursday and Friday. and 11 am – 6 pm on Saturday. “With the success of Erotica LA and other fan-based shows I feel it is imperative to expand this year’s show after the great success we had last year and make it a three day event.” said Steve Seidman, Editor of Adult Quest Magazine.
