Icon Night Club 5917 Academy Blvd, Colorado Springs • 719-528-6097 Enter the world of Hip Hop. Me and a date ventured out to the acclaimed “2nd Annual Fantasy, Flesh, and Fetish Ball” that they were advertising everywhere.

I have pretty high standards when it comes to these kind of balls, especially being molded by the famed “Sin City” of Vancouver, B.C. The night was a disappointment when it comes to fetish. It was a disappointment in terms of music. The club was very nice, good staff, good specials. Free drinks till midnight, you couldn’t beat that. $10 cover, even beats most other fetish night covers. The place was jammed packed with hundreds in attendance, and quite a lineup to get in. But they didn’t care what people wore to get in. No strict dress code. There were lots of hipsters in their jeans and t-shirts and baseball caps. I think for a “Fetish night” - strict dress should be enforced. Any holders of such a night without such, ruins the very concept of the night.
Hell, they could have simply enforced “costume” and it would have been better. There was nothing fetish about the night, except perhaps a few individual costumes involving pvc or leather. Fantasy was covered with a good array of costumes - but hey, it’s Halloween. Anything sexual as is a usual feature to “Fetish and Sex Nights”? Nope. It was a hyped up Halloween Costume Party blaring Hip Hop. Not impressed. Rated 2 1/2 stars out of 5. Visited 10/29/2005.
