"This is a fan-based show for those who don't get a chance to go to Las Vegas [for the 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 Productions contract performer Tera Wray, as well as Houston native Tom Byron, alt-porn director 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 performers scheduled to appear 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 seen in the HBO 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, aka The Alaskan Assassin.
Gray said Matt Zane Productions' "Tattooed & Tight" series, touted as 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 Nov. 7 at The Men's Club, club hops between Rick's North and The Penthouse Club on Nov. 8, Hottyz and Score's Cabaret of Houston Nov. 9, and the closing party Nov. 10 at The Ritz Cabaret. Also on Nov. 10, Tera Wray will host the 1st 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," Gray said. "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 p.m. Nov. 8-9. and 11 a.m.-6 p.m. on Nov. 10.
"With the success of 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.
