THE KING IS BACK! I arrive at the new venue around midnight, dressed as the Elvis himself! White latex jumpsuit with a mashing cape and belt, all decorated with eagles, stars and color swirls. It's a custom design made by Laura from Vex Clothing.

This years Rubber Ball venue consist of a series of teamed rooms; The Lady Luck Lounge offered burlesque acts and a live band playing cool jazz from the 40/50's. The victorian Dungeon was filled with play equipment, shows and even had a string quartet! In the Dance/fashion area where you could dance and look at latest fetish fashion from Fierce Couture, TOMTO, Skin Two Clothing, Dark Garden, Libidex and Honour.

In the Rubber Ball Room, you could enjoy performances and installations set in a large cage, from kinky strip to suspension shows. The '60s and '70s Room featured funky music, free candyfloss and PVC dressed babes doing the "Carwash" - with water/soap and all! A large chill out area offered lots of seating and chat friendly music levels. In the chill area was a photo studio where you could get your picture taken and get prints delivered to your door for 5 pounds.

I had a great time, drinking, dancing and chatting. The place was close full and there was loads of fantastic costumes/dresses to look at. One eye candy after the other. It's clear that everybody took their part in making this a special event to remember. Elvis left the building around 5am.
