Hi there,
the May edition of The Hellfire Club is going to be totally XX-rated, with all-grrl DJs and performers all night, celebrating the femme fatales, mistresses, vamps, tramps, goddesses, whores, loose women and dirty grrls who’ve made the club so different, so special over so many years.

DJ Sveta will be hitting the Hellfire decks at 1.30am, hot on the back of our sexy resident DJ Mandy Rollins playing an epic 4-hour set from 9.30pm-1.30am. Ultra caught up with Sveta briefly and asked her whether she was excited about playing Hellfire, and she replied:

“It’s always a special night for me when I get to play at Hellfire. I’ve been playing on and off at the party for close to 14 years and love seeing all the regulars and all the new faces that pop up. I look forward to a night of dirty beats and even dirtier displays in the crowd.”

And the shows?

At 11:30pm: Blonde and bodacious Wendy Dys, curator of the Studio Kirk Gallery http://www.artbabes.com.au last appeared at Hellfire in January 2007 http://hellfiresydney.com/blog/?p=427

Since that time she’s been in Beijing for the second anniversary of Vogue magazine; as well as performing on a giant free-standing aerial tripod which Coke snapped up for their Future Music Festival and for Good Vibrations! According to Wendy: “standing eight meters off the ground and hanging from your neck from the tripod is what I think the art of pain is about” ...and for her show at Hellfire she’ll be giving us a miniature (and more kinky- sensual) version of her Coke show.

Wendy writes: “Watch as I go through the pain of hanging, tying and balancing the art of pain. I am ready to show you all the pleasure and pain of the aerial arts. I am proud to be showing you this at the greatest club in town, Hellfire!”

Then at 1:30am:

Leaping from the depths of a strong, ice-cold cocktail, Vesper White is the latest bump and grinding beauty to hit Australia. As a young lass she was trained in ballet and theatre, and now as the youngest addition to Sydney’s growing burlesque scene at only nineteen years old, her curves and moves will knock the living daylights out of you!

With the charm and cheek of a Tease-a-rama girl, the raw energy of Bettie Page and the heart-stopping hip-grind of the Chicago State Fair exotics, Vesper is one dark hip-shaking, home-wrecking, heartbreaker. She has been performing continually in the Sydney circuit since August with Sugartime, 34B and Black Cherry, along with several other band performances, most notably Zombie Ghost Train and Sparkadia. After sharing her wiggle at the Live08 Festival in Melbourne in February, Miss White has most recently returned from Queensland’s Garterbelts and Gasoline Kustom show and the Central Coast’s The Village show.

Lately, a more sinister side of Vesper has evolved, and she has begun to share her delight in all things fetish! Her love of nylons, Japanese rope bondage and closet skeletons have made themselves evident in her latest work; a dark exploration of escaping self indulgence, breaking her bonds of the clean cut pin-up and embracing a more satisfying form of fetish. Hellfire will be seeing a sly, electrically charged Houdini act of the most delicious rope order at our May 2008 Club Night on Friday 16th May.

For the boys who may get more than a little jealous at all these displays of the undeniable superiority of the female gender, there’s always Brandy’s Wicked Doll Transformation Parlour that will help you find and flaunt your inner femme for the night. Payment is by donation, and you won’t recognise yourself after Brandy and her genderfunking slaves have finished with you!

And as always, there’s the $100.00 SAX Fetish DIY Fetish Encouragement Award on offer for those who are just stepping out into the fetish fantasy fashion world, generously donated by our always-gorgeous sponsors. Home-made and DIY outfits are what we are rewarding here, so make sure you catch Ultra or myself before 11:30pm to be in the running for this great prize.

Cheers
Master Tom
