Fetish & Gothic Parties & Events - MAY 2014
I'm sure that many of you will have realised by now that i don't do normal parties, instead prefer events which are that little bit different and ere mainly on the Gothic & Fetish scenes.
Where else can you dress up in your favorite outfits & dance all night long to the kind of music tracks that get your heart pumping and blood flowing.
