dcman Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 I did a search and found lots of old threads but nothing real current. Has Tristan Baldwin retired? He has been such a super star I would think he would have made an announcement? I probably just missed it. Can someone update me on his status? Thanks Guys. + tristanbaldwin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike carey Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Unless it's recent he hasn't retired, but since the pandemic he hasn't been touring as much and has other pursuits. His RM ad has expired but shows future travel plans so I wouldn't read to much into the 'expired' bit. + bashful, + azdr0710 and + tristanbaldwin 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sincitymix Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I think Tristan said he was staying in his local area unless he travels and is seeing existing clients. I believe he did mention not to let that discourage new clients, and they just need to reach out to him. + azdr0710 and + tristanbaldwin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonyko Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 We talk regularly and all I can say is he is the most multi-tasking guy I know, if he's not out on maneuvers with fellow Veterans (some in their 80's) he's digging building repairing something on his big property or filming private matches for other fighters like J Firestorm and if he did NOTHING BUT travel to JUST his long time regulars he'd prolly have time for nothing else lol. He's always been a catch him if you're lucky enough to - guy and I know there's tons of frustrated guys here who have never been able to try as they may for YEARS but he is WORTH the vigilance. Each time I see him he somehow manages to look even MORE magnificent than the time before. So new clients should keep trying and know it's not aloofness or flaking if you can't get him it's just a matter of timing. But like all good things he's worth the effort 🙂 builder boy, + purplekow, + Autumnal and 8 others 9 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy2 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I agree with Tonyko. Tristan is based in CT (near Hartford) and is a great host at his spacious house. So if you can make the trip (by car) to his place, he is more readily available--and is just as much fun (if not more so) than when he is on the road. builder boy, + azdr0710, + bashful and 1 other 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ azdr0710 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I keep telling that guy to get some sleep, but there's always something that needs doing or fixing. And Cheetos should get a picture of his rock-hard eight-pack abs to promote its healthy benefits. + bashful and + tristanbaldwin 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I’m REALLY lucky his travel schedule and mine will coincide every six months or so, but he is absolutely worth the wait. + azdr0710 and + tristanbaldwin 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ tristanbaldwin Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Good morning all! Thanks so much for the kind words- a friend(I don't use the word 'client' regularly, because I feel most of my 'clients' end up becoming friends to some extent....a few more so than others 😉), told me I was being discussed...and he set the hookl, requiring me to come on and actually check it....so here I am. Couple quick updates to explain the absence...because I'm not sure if I made them earlier. My Father, after his longstanding health issues...did end up passing away back in late May....and that obviously threw me for a hard loop, given how close I was to him. Ironing out his house, his taxes, his estate- all of that is nearly a full time job; thankfully my brother took the point on that. In order to keep myself focused on something, I ended up becoming invested in a Veterans Parachute Demonstration Team- which performs at airshows, commemorative events like Normandy D-Day invasion, you name it. The primary role of this is fundraising for the care of the WWII Veterans still alive, and to give them an audience to still be heard and valued..and it's one of the best programs I've been involved with in my life. Am absolutely still escorting- and will kick up the road game slightly in the coming months- needed to get the calendar of events for air shows a bit clearer, so that I could build escort trips around them. Double duty for me, as always LOL. A genuine thank you to all of you who have continued to be concerned for my well being; whether I'm in the industry still or not.....that speaks volumes to YOUR character, even more so than mine. With so many great friends from this facet of my life out there in the US and the World, don't expect me to be retiring soon....I'm still in this fight!

LOL Tristan, you and I have never met but I wanted to comment on your very generous post. First, along with so many others, my condolences on your loss. Because of the photos and background you were so kind to share, it's clear to me that your father was part of a truly special group of men. World War Two is fading deeper into history every year. That's tragic because we owe men like your father more than we can imagine. "Hero" is a word too flippantly used these days, in my opinion. But not at all flippantly when describing those gentlemen. The heroic guys who quite literally saved us all in that awful war fought against tyranny and genocide – and WON. My heart goes out to your father through you, his son and inheritor of his legacy. It would be a true pleasure - and honor - to meet you and learn more about your dad. P.S. I used to do some skydiving back in the day, just for sport, and I envy you for being a part of the Demonstration Team program which clearly means so much to you. – Take good care and thank you once again for what you have shared with us. - Craig in Minnesota Edited August 30, 2023 by crushme99 alexslaveboy, myophile and Andy2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 We only met once, when I lived in the SF Bay Area, but I can also vouch for what a class act you are, Sergeant. Please accept my condolences for your loss. You may be the most amazing escort I've met in all of my (many 🙄) years. I'm glad for the opportunity to thank you. Glad to see you're doing well. 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+ purplekow Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 (edited) Tristan is unusual as far as his rates go. I give him money and then he gives me back money, then I say it is not enough and try to give him more money and he refuses. It adds about 15 minutes to every visit. It is all good natured and no matter what he is charging, he is worth it.

alexslaveboy Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 (edited) @tristanbaldwin We’ve never had a meeting. Some correspondence in the past definitely a few years ago my sincere condolences on your loss of your father. My father passed away in 2018 and I am still struggling with the loss your work with the veterans is to be commended as well what a wonderful person you are!!! My dad was a WW2 veteran and was in the UK and Switzerland for several months if you should ever find yourself in South Jersey (Atlantic City or Wildwood area) definitely let me know I’d LOVE a meetup with you and definitely would love to treat you to dinner as well 🥘🥘🍱🍛 Alex Edited September 2, 2023 by alexslaveboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
