He was the reason I believe wholeheartedly in the saying "you never want to meet your heroes." He wasn't my hero per se but he was this amazing sexy and handsome masculine man of versatility I had seen on the screen in every film he had done by that time (so yeah definitely some idol/hero worship on my part) so when I found out he was coming to the Campus Theatre in San Francisco, I made plans. Called in sick from work, told my family I was going to a late party (wasn't out yet), caught the train for his evening show and went to see him perform. I believe he was at the height of his popularity and looking back at that time, I think he might have been obligated to appear. He looked bored and uninterested. You could see it in his eyes. When he made his way around the audience, I had twenty bucks I was going to shove in his socks. I was so excited. He stepped before me, I put the money in his sock and he wouldn't look at me in the face...still bored but when he finally did I remember smiling. However the look on his face was just...there was no smile, no 'hey how's it going' or 'thanks for coming', no hint of kindness; he wasn't disgusted but he looked irritated, annoyed...it's hard to explain. I know I felt like shit and left about 10 minutes later. I was crushed and I never watched another scene with him in it. Now 20 years later, I'm a single man with a great job and disposable income in an age where many porn stars are available for private meetings. I know more about gay porn and the men involved than I ever have and I refuse to try to meet any of them because I still remember how it felt. Logan Reed is probably not an evil man or vicious but I still want my twenty bucks back lol. Had a chance to train with Samuel Colt and I turned it down for the same reason. You never want to meet your heroes because they don't always want to meet you.
If you have any porn star expeiences that you would like to share, however good or bad, then email pornstarsexposed@gmail.com

ReplyDeleteShocking!
Dude, get over it. Logan had a bad night 2 decades ago - big fucking woo.
ReplyDeleteI know quite a few porn stars and they are all great guys. As for Samuel, you missed out on meeting one of the most genuine and sweetest guys you could ever know in or out of porn.
Wow. Interesting. You win. Thanks for making me sorry I sent that in.

ReplyDeleteWe have all had bad experiences with porn stars.Don't let yours with Logan Reed deter you from meeting anyone.I got to meet my favorite porn stars Eric Evans and Zak Spears years later.Both guys were down to earth and very friendly.I happen to know Samuel Colt personally.It took me a while to muster the courage to talk to him.He later explained that he is shy around people but once he gets to know you watch out! As for Logan I had an interesting online experience with him and his boyfriend at the time Andrew Rubio.Lets just say out of that a friendship was born between me and their co-star in Night Shift Mario Cruz.
