i cant belive it! i just found out blender is cancelled, and now after clicking the link to the body perve website it tells me that its now cancelled too!!! What is going on here?? so sin city and sanctuatry are the only ones left?? if anybody else knows of any places to listen to some decent music pls let me know!!
From my experience, the crowd at BP consists of a lot more "regulars" (people who have been in the fetish scene for many, many years), and is a lot more BD/SM focussed than SinCity. SinCity, from my modest perspective, seems to be attract a wider *range* of fetishes (those more into costume and partying than strictly BDSM play, perhaps), and newer faces (especially the Goth crowd), although as I mentioned I haven't been to BP in quite a while so things may have changed. Depends on what you're into. I have been told many times over the years that both nights do have each of those elements, but it seems each has the scales tipped a different way.
As for music, I don't know - you'll have to ask a recent goer of both nights for a good answer. Anyone?
------------------------------------
I think you're best off to go early (before 10). In the past there has always been a significant line to get in... not sure about recently because haven't been in quite some time.

BP's revamped website isn't totally complete yet and the FAQ is not there.

The dress code is very strict. More so than SinCity. I'm afraid I cannot guarantee he would get in with a costume, but if he puts a bit of effort in, he will probably be OK. A zombie costume consisting of a torn t-shirt and dirty jeans won't pass. In fact I'm pretty sure any evidence of denim is a bad thing there (at least it used to be when I went). I think that if he's doing some sort of creepy make-up and clothing that seems obviously zombie-like, and isn't wearing any denim, he *should* be fine. The issue being that zombies aren't, well, very overtly sexual by most people's standards (unlike say, a doctor, a vampire or a schoolgirl for example). The busier they are, the pickier they get, apparently.
Can anyone who's been to the last few BP events back me up on this?
