With any good, science-based endeavor, constant be experimentation is critical. Trying new things. Seeing what works. What happens if I press the red button?

Rough Crowd itself began as an experiment, and has already passed from experiment into ongoing event. So I’ve decided to try an experiment withinRough Crowd (because I’m just crazy like that): the Road Trip.

We’re taking the show on the road, as they say. I’m packing up my little notebook and my… well, my hands… and heading over to Detroit for two individual back-to-back events, sponsored by the awesome A2 TNG:

Friday, November 18, 2011

Friday’s class is above the shoulders and between the ears: “It’s OK To Hit Them (So Long As They’re Into That)” is a discussion class geared around getting in touch with your inner sadist/masochist/kink/etc. “Dr. Rough’s Relationship Advice” is a discussion roundtable about the hurdles that can come with D/s dynamics.

Friday’s class is open to everyone in the community. Take a look at the event page for RSVP info, pricing, full class details and to click the little “I’m going!” button.

Saturday, November 19, 2011

Saturday’s class is Rough Body Play, in two parts; before the break will be intro to Rough Body Play, including basics, safety, etc. After the break will be group-led advanced; whatever topics the assembled crowd wants to get into, we’ll get into! (almost – see the special note below.)

Saturday’s class is open to A2 TNG members, and includes a play party, and a potluck dinner. Take a look at the event page for RSVP info, pricing, full class details and to click the little “I’m going!” button.

A special note

Rough Crowd Road Trip: Detroit happens the 18th and 19th, the weekend after the regular Rough Crowd in Chicago (the 13th, always the second Sunday). This November, Rough Crowd will be on kicking, and to prevent confusion (and attrition), in the second half of Saturday’s class in Detroit, we’ll cover anythingexcept kicking.
