In the Orlando, FL area this weekend? Stop by and visit our booth at the 2009 SpookyEmpire Ultimate Horror Weekend (formerly Screamfest). We’ll be bringing all kinds of Gothic goodies, amidst rooms of cool horror merch , Celebrities, Zombies, Artists, Authors, Tattoo Artists and more – with a good 15,000+ guest attendance.
We recently were invited to setup a vending area for the Fifth annual Necropolis Masquerade Ball (thanks DJ LD) , in downtown Orlando. It was great night and we got to hear some newer songs like the “Zydrate Anatomy” from the REPO: The Genetic Opera soundtrack … along with the elusive Christian Bale Rant Remix (thanks Ginger!), as well as some favorite Industrial/EBM sounds. About 350 people turned out for the night which was cool with a fantastic range of outfits.. along with some awesome animal head masks that reminded me of the movie The Wicker Man.
We setup with a couple of tables in the Pit area, along with amazing artist Vaughn Belak from whom we bought a surreal painting much to our delight. Some photos to follow…

We recently vended at the Radio Golgotha one year anniversary party in Tampa,FL. The event was held at:
The Crowbar
1812 17th Street
North Tampa, FL 33605
November 1st 2008
The event was comprised of the station’s DJ’s spinning and a live performance by the Ludovico Technique.
Not quite the turnout we had expected due to a competing night at The Castle, and a Fetish Ball across the street, but it was fun hanging out with friends and enjoying the music.
We just got back from vending Convergence 14 – America’s Premier Gothic Gathering in Ybor City, FL.
Live music provided by: Voltaire • Iris • Audra • Fiction 8 • Missile Command • The Synthetic Dream Foundation • Faded Sympathy • The Passing Hour • Exit
DJ’s: DJ Spider • Spinmistress batty • DJ Satori • DJ Vikki Wilson • DJ Sexbat • Alex Reed (Thou Shalt Not) • DJ Keith • DJ Scar • DJ SailorGloom • DJ Storm • TheOneBob • CarrieMonster • DJ ian Nothing.
Overall we had a great time, although turnout was bit low at around 250 people, compared with last year in Portland of around 2,000. I guess the event is being turned back into it’s original roots as an event “By Netgoths, For Netgoths”, thus it was a bit more homey.
The great part of the event was the people we got to meet! We were lucky to be vending right next some awesome folks.
On our left side was Mark and Kurt from Seraphemera Books , who had an amazing display and were great to speak with. They specialize in hand bound journals, Victorian Mourning cards, the Romanti-Goth A to Z Coloring books and are home to the dark and spooky fairytale comic Polyglot & Spleen, among many other fantastic curiosities.
On our right, was Occult author, DJ and Priest, Raven Digitalis. Raven’s recent books include Goth Craft and his new Shadow Magick Compendium. I was somewhat familiar with his works before coming to C14, and had wanted to make it a point to meet, so I was happy we were boothed right next door, so we got to chat about all things Occult for a bit. Accompanying Raven, were Estha and Madeline who help to run their Metaphysical Shop Twigs and Brews. We picked up some great herbal teas, hand made soaps. like a star shaped Dragonsblood and are still enjoying them. Estha and Madeline were also very warm, open and great to speak with. It’s great getting to speak with people from other towns and sharing their perspective on life. I was on a definite high from our conversations, having had the chance to speak openly on Spiritually oriented topics.
I got to speak at length with Curse from Kambriel. This was enjoyable and I am happy they are getting the gothic scene some high profile attention while being invited to be a part of the current museum exhibition: “Gothic: Dark Glamour” hosted by The Museum at FIT in New York City, with such well known designers as Yves St. Laurent,Givenchy and Christian Lacroix.
Meeting Calan, creator of Gingerdead Gothic Webcomic was also fantastic, but more on this in another upcoming post….
Overall, a fun time was had, and we will see what next year brings!
Thanks to everyone who visited us at our vending booth at the Central Florida Industrial Fest staring the
Ludovico Technique last Tuesday at BackBooth. This was an all ages Gothic Industrial show and we had a great turnout. We brought a small assortment of items from our Gothic Shop, like cyber goggles, cyber masks, alchemy gothic jewelry, cyberpunk DVD’s and more.
The Ludovico Technique had a wicked stage setup, complete with an X-ray machine and put on a twisted, high energy show, along with the hard pounding Industrial of supporting act Despondent Mass Atrophy. I’ve seen Ludovico a number of times and they always have an interesting stage presence, and give an overall spooky performance. In case your wondering, yes, Ludovico is a reference to the infamous Clockwork Orange masterpiece by Stanley Kubrick.

A great time was had by all last night at Destruktion, a monthly Gothic Industrial/EBM/Noize night in Orlando, FL. We set up a small table at the event selling cyber gothic respirators and masks, Steampunk and cyber goggles, Alchemy Gothic Jewelry, Cyberpunk DVD’s and more. Of course the fun came at the end of the evening when we had time to Dance! Here are some of the photos.
