Fisting Brotherhood Planning Meeting

From Papa Tony:

Things have been quiet on the Fisting Brotherhood San Diego front, for obvious reasons, for those who know me - A week and a half ago, I hosted four events in a 30-hour period!

Welcome Dinner

Flog Swarm

Gear invasion & Presentation Ceremony

Movie Night

I’m still not fully recovered, as I am still compiling pictures and text for articles to document what happened.  I am also going out of town for four days, while I attend the Butchmanns Experience in Phoenix this weekend.

As I have said repeatedly, I will NOT be the Head Guy for FBSD.   I can guide from behind (my favorite position), giving wise and extremely expert advice, but I can’t be the Chief Cook and Bottle Washer, for any group, any more.  Those days are over.  33 years is long enough.

So, here is my request, going forward:

Please let me know (by replying to fistingbrotherhoodsd @gmail.com) what you would most like to see happening for fisters in San Diego’s scene.  I will gladly accept, compile and post whatever your ideas are, but I also will help folks get those dreams started.  If anybody knows how to get things done in this town, it’s me.

I also want your suggestions on a good night to talk together in a quiet space, so that we can start forming an action team.  I am busy on Tuesday and Wednesday nights.  Location will not be a problem.

Upcoming Events

Saturday, June 7, 4-7pm: Return of Cigars & Boots at Redwing Bar & Grill!

Survey Feedback Strongly Requested

There are some great play-spaces now available to us, and the scene is heating-up quickly. I can easily name three sling-party-type events coming up in the next month, with more later on.

However…

In order to move forward, more info is needed, from YOU:

Drop me an email at FistingBrotherhoodSD @gmail.com, and tell me more about yourself:

---

How willing are you to attend events?

How willing are you to contribute time or energy to events?

Does this "brotherhood" thing we keep talking about just seem like a distraction, as opposed to just getting down to piggy play?

What is your level of expertise, experience or enthusiasm, particularly toward being part of a group?

Do you have a portable sling?

Do you tend toward Top, versatile or bottom?

Can you teach others?

Would you like to be taught?

What lesson topic in particular interests you?

Anything else, that I have forgotten to ask?

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Don't Forget! FBSD Social, This Thursday

From Papa Tony:

This Thursday's event at the Eagle is coming up fast.  Please take the time to be there.  This has the possibility of being hugely significant.  We have needed such a fisting brotherhood for a long time.

If you have ideas for how such a group can best succeed in 2014 and beyond, please bring your ideas, dreams, suggestions (or complaints) and share them with boy kevin (sandiego.bb.boy @gmail.com) and myself (papatony @mac.com).

If you want a fisting group that handles YOUR needs, then it's no good to just sit back and complain.  That's what we have all been doing for years, for all of the good that it has done for us.  I'm as guilty as anybody.

New-style groups like this one are "crowd-sourced", meaning that they function best when everybody has a hand in how it works.  Literally :-)  The goal is to create a team of men who can share their wisdom, resources, time, mentoring, and eagerness to learn.

In the meantime, let's find excellent reasons to drop the shields, be sociable, and become better friends!

FBSD Kickoff Social/Red Hankies Night:

Thursday, May 8, 9PM at the @ the Eagle, at 3040 North Park Way.

Expect a VERY sociable time.  Most times, a man arrives lonely, or unsure, or feeling awkward and shy.

NO PROBLEM!

This time around, we will have several natural-born "Julie the Cruise Directors" mixing and mingling, and making sure that every man feels welcome and safe.  Bring your friends, or come alone... It makes no difference - We’re all brothers here!
