At last night’s Colt Video event at Apple Jack we caught up with host Jonny Mack while DJ Corey Craig spun for the furry and fashionable crowd. “Matt [Tratner] had worked on a TV show with a producer who also worked for Colt,” said Mack of the collaboration. “He was especially excited after having seen the party last week. [Apple Jack] opened beautifully... we watched online as the overall reaction to the photos and word-of-mouth just got out of control, which created a huge build-up to tonight. I had more than 700 people on my guest list alone” Mack mused.

 
Does the new party differ from the original Jack, held at the late-and-lamented Aspen?“ I think there’s been a fashionable acceptance of ‘fur’ in the last two years, so I don’t actually think this party is incredibly different," opined the go-go bear. “We have people like Dina Marie, who likes to play with fashion and I think is spectacularly beautiful but, in an odd way, real. Even though they’re dressing up crazy, they embrace it in a way that does not carry with it an attitude of exclusivity.”

 Next week, Apple Jack will welcome DJ Gustavo Mata and, as Mack puts it, “more hot porn, more hot giveaways, and more attitude-free, sexy guys who have a sense of fashion.” –Christopher Dilley
