As PK mentioned, events have been held, or contemplated, in other locations. To me, one of the things that makes this one, and DC to a lesser extent, work is that it's a location that requires a deliberate decision and a commitment to spend at least a night away from home (longer if more than one of the events is attended). It requires earlier commitment than an event in one's home city, and therefore more thought before deciding to cancel.
To me, the weekend is an event, and it's in a city that provides near certainty of weather and won't overwhelm the event with other attractions or commitments for those few days. So yes, an event in the LA basin would be possible, but it I doubt it could be a substitute for the Palm Springs event.

plan on attending but depends on work schedule and life. 

Has anyone actually given money to another guy so they can test masseur before we all do?

There are a lot of ways to get free food. Churches and communities have food drives all the time. 

It’s so hot when a dom top bends me over and only uses spit ugh🤤

I had the same experience, the guy had me walking around a hotel. After that I no longer take clients without a photo and username sent in text. I once FaceTimed one of the scammers and he was some guy in India

He and his brother ChampionHands got a hold of my credit card number and used the information to make purchases at Amazon and other.  Very annoying because they made charges out of spite.  It is like seriously your 51 years old figure it out. 

Water base lube. Does saliva count? 

This is the only instance, ever, where you'd see me using water-based lube. 

I swear some people just like wasting others time. That sounds so frustrating.

It happens. Unfortunately. I’ve had similar (travelling to clients only to have them ghost me when I got there). It all happens…and there’s a red flag every time.
I had it recently with a client who’d booked twice previously and cancelled both sessions for various outlandish reasons. Third time he books and I think ‘ok this time maybe he will go ahead’. Then on the day before he sends a weird message saying ‘hi Jamie I’ve decided to offer my massage to someone else, and I might watch and join in’.  What’s that about??? I replied to tell him I’d cancelled it because I couldn’t accept that proposal. He asked me to rethink and he’d come alone but after the previous issues I just told him I couldn’t see him. It’s just not worth the risk. 
I guess he was anxious about coming and instead of just saying ‘I’m sorry I’ve changed my mind because I’m anxious’ we could have dealt with it but he came up with some weird plan. People sometimes behave strangely when dealing with us. You just have to recognise the red flags and respond accordingly. 

This guy hits me up.. he has a new account which is already a red flag in my book. But we’re chatting and I drive to his place after sending multiple verification photos. Then he says he won’t let me in till I take a photo outside of his apartment building so I took one from in my car parked out front. He then says no I need to be standing out front. So I explained that sounded weird as I already verified. He said I had to do it so I told him I’m not getting out of my vehicle as there was no need since I already verified. Him wanting me outside my car and to take additional verification in front of his building made me feel like he was the cops. He was also asking weird questions about my personal life like if I was born in the us. I left and he said wait come back you can just come up it’s fine. So I come back against my better judgement and tell him I’m outside. He quits responding then blocks me. The amount of clients that are so paranoid about hiring that end up blocking me after I’ve already driven to there plays is way to much! I was beyond pissed as i spent about 2 hours going back and forth with this guy! Sorry needed to vent 

If a client does not tell what they want it’s a waste of time. Endless talk is bad for both client and provider. 

Most escorts dislike engaging in endless texting with potential clients, unfortunately that's the way folks communicate nowadays and it's hard for them to tell who is actually interested or not.
Considering the circumstances we're living many folks won't be sexually explicit by text. May I remind you text messages just can't be erased. 
 

Non penetrative activities/ kink takes some practice. I will spend 1-2 hours preparing a kink session before a client arrives, these activities done without prep are not as good. Often a client will not tell me what they want. I can only list so much online that clients might want to actually read. If client does not tell me than i do not know what they want go through a checklist of exploring items.
 
does this help? 

I was trying to confirm a time on a date that we had already agreed upon for a group session he indicated he was into, and gave a numbered list for him to confirm he is good with all the activities. He ghosted me. I get the sense he is not serious, and the other interactions before that gave me a weird vibe. I never met him, but based on the communication, I would not recommend.

you know, I've messaged RM reviewers looking for specific comments and, gee, they sure ain't the friendly bunch of dudes we have here at CoM!.......despite my usual charming and professionally non-threatening style, replies are highly sporadic and often vague/unhelpful........many reviewers never reply and one even blocked me for a mundane question!........this reviewer you mention not even wanting to describe the session might say more about himself than the provider (competing provider?, jilted boyfriend?, etc.)........

I'll be there too!  Just got some travel plans sorted!  Looking forward to it, hopefully it'll be nice and hot for the pool gathering!  
 

Can't wait! Just two more weeks! Anyone knows any plans of any activities outside the three main ones?
I don't mind going with a few to the farmer's markets and the Village-Fest.

Thank You to the moderators for this invaluable service to our community . You are all very much appreciated and thank you too for your patience !

@CuriousByNature, yes, exchange rates, tell me about it! The AUD seems to have passed its latest nadir, inshallah! I'm holding my breath waiting for the InnDulge deposit to be charged to my card. I have some USD in cash and the USD account at my bank, bought when rates were better.

Because apparently there was talk about enjoyable cookies from the last gathering, how would people feel if I brought some homemade lemon bars with blueberry compote for our enjoyment at the pool?
