Memorial Day Weekend festivities in Cherry Grove began on May 27 with Daniel Nardicio’s first Underwear extravaganza of the season, the Fleet Week Spectacular, with energetic young pop singer Kat Deluna’s introduction to Fire Island a highlight. DJ Chuck McTague was responsible for music and Robbyne Kaamil worked the door.
Assisted by two sexy backups, Deluna got the crowd singing and dancing along with her hit, “Whine Up!” and with new song “Drop It Low, Pump It Up,” from her forthcoming CD, and favored us with “Dancing Tonight” as well. The fans loved her, she loved the fans, and she declared that she wanted to return to the Island very soon.
The fleet was in, and red-hot Shay and other dancers sported sailor hats and white briefs in its honor. The evening concluded with Flambeaux eating and doing other dangerous-looking things with fire beside the pool.
The Friday night Underwear Parties continue through Labor Day Weekend and begin at 10 p.m.
After ‘whining up,’ we wound down from the evening at a pool party the next afternoon, sponsored by UnderGear.com and Stoli, at Daniel’s ‘Home for Wayward Boys’ at his new digs on Lewis Walk, near the ocean. Comely young men abounded, Robbyne held court, and Shay floated, naked, in the pool. Robbyne, billed as Demyse Kaamil, will bring her hard-hitting show, “Raw & Real: Life from One Woman’s Perspective,” to the Community House on August 13, the Saturday of Fire Island Black Out (FIBO) weekend, at 7:30 and 10 p.m., under the aegis of the Arts Project of Cherry Grove (APCG).
That night at the Ice Palace, DJs Rich King and Gustavo, known for their SNAXX events in Chelsea, presented their first SummerSNAXX by the Sea dance party of the season, attracting a frisky, furry crowd. They’ll be back on the Saturdays of the summer’s other two holiday weekends, July 2 and September 3, with doors opening at 10 p.m.
