The naked hippies freakout that is Eros Day returns to Susan Block’s Speakeasy on Saturday night, January 22, an annual celebration that for a dozen years has combined porn with theatre, swingers, groovy academics, creeps, and the curious to bring a little of the Bay Area to mercenary Los Angeles, if just for a little while.
The holiday of Eros Day is celebrated every year on and around January 22 when the planetoid 433-EROS spins closest to Earth. Eros the “planetoid,” or large asteroid, was discovered by Dr. Carl Gustav Witt in 1898. If “size matters,” Eros measures 25.3 by 9.1 by 8.8 miles, making it one of the most elongated planetoids in our solar system, the better to penetrate our hearts, and other metaphorical organs–especially when it is closest to us on January 22.
When a planetoid the size of Martha’s Vineyard travels so close to us, we can’t but hope that the salmon hatcheries that are our libidos might be ravished by the Great White Shark of Knowledge and Self Expression. Or something.
Special Guest at Eros Day 2011 will be Eros Day founder Lasse Braun’s son, Axel Braun, winner of multiple AVN 2011 Awards for his Batman XXX parody and This Ain’t Avatar XXX 3D, recently joining his revolutionary dad in the AVN Hall of Fame. Other erotic stars who have confirmed for Eros Day include Cadence St. John, RubberNecro, Zoe Holloway, Keni Styles, Lily Cade, Sinn Sage, Paris Kennedy, Amber Berlin, Chastity Lynn, Scott Lyons, Snow Mercy, Ron Jeremy, Ginny Blossom, Kat, Lilo, Toy, The Porn Klown Posse and more coming in as Eros Day approaches.
In the porn world it is often easy to miss the erotica for the Fake Internal Popshot, so it will be fun and perhaps even educational to watch a group performing for a different audience.
All profits will go to bonobo dismemberment empowerment.
