Last weekend, the Montreal based 'Woof Bar & Bistro' (website - articles) had their very first 'Party Bearotica', and TubeBear was there to capture the whole thing on digital celluloid.

The place was packed with some truly incredible good looking men, and since Woof bar is catering to the Bear community, there were some really really hot guys there that night. Alongside all the goodness, there were some pretty neat shows. They had an underwear modeling show and an S&M show. There was also a vernissage and there was a booth in which people could get free tattoos.

I (Bob Forrest - profile) had a corner by the DJ booth and my partner Roger (galleries - profile) was there to help me for the evening. The biggest surprise for me was seeing Frank aka aBearLover2 (galleries - profile) who came up from New Jersey (Frank was one of the first guys I photographed). Frank whooped it up like it was the end of ages, dancing away in his red jockstrap. I was livestreaming the event for TubeBear so all those who were logged in got to see Frank's super freaky disco moves.

There was also Jacques aka PandaMontreal (galleries - profile) who got himself a tattoo, and altho I didn't see them for very long, I saw Eric Z. (galleries - profile) and his buddy Dave aka Cumalotts (galleries - profile). However, I didn't get to talk to anyone for too long as I was also filming the event alongside the livestreaming. I still have to sort thru the video yet I should hopefully have some footage online soon.

Click here to see some pictures from the event. I didn't have the time to take pictures myself, so some of the credit goes to Jacques and some to Eric for sending in these photos. However, if you would like to see more photos from this event, check out photographer Ryan Lee's website for plenty of photos from Party Bearotica.

Owner of the bar Paul Blouin (profile) is informing us that he plans on hosting 'Party Bearotica' twice a month - every other Saturday. One of the Saturdays will be opened to the public while the other will be a private party (to get coupons, email Paul or pick them up at the bar).

This event took place back at the end of August and I've already given it extensive coverage, however I just received a CD in the mail by one of the photographers who was at the event, and his photos are just brilliant that I decided to share them with you.

On August 30th there was the Monsieur Bear Montréal contest at the Woof Bar. My partner Roger (galleries - profile) came in runner up. I made a video of the event (YouTube profile). For today's update, Ryan Lee (website) was there for Fugue Magazine and took excellent shots. Ryan sure has a great eye for capturing the best in a man. See these 151 photos here.

There really isn't much about Ryan Lee on his website yet his photographs do speak volumes. I actually got to meet Ryan briefly at the Monsieur Bear Montréal (articles) which took place at the Woof Bar (website). Ryan was there taking photos of the event for Fugues Magazine, and he took a ton of pics and they are excellent. This guy is real good - he took pics of me and I actually look decent. Make sure to check out his site, there's a ton of event pics to be seen.
