Hello there!
Hope you all had a fun-filled weekend and that your week is off to a great start. I had a nice phone chat with my buddy, Mark Adams of www.VideoView.com and we spent some time catching up. I haven't spoken to him since I was last in Boston almost  a year ago.
We spoke about the current state of the Industry, my new site, getting fucked...you know, the normal catching-up-with-you kinda chat.
It went a little something like this:

Nick Capra Interview – 5.15.09

Me: The new site is looking great.
Nick:  It’s in its beginning stages, but I’m just glad to see it
taking on a life of its own.  It’s been a long time coming.
M: The stuff that you’re shooting for the site…I suspect you’ll
eventually be releasing them on DVD.
N:  Most likely. Yeah. Why not.
M:  What can we expect to see on the site?
N:  We’re doing scripted scenes and some amateur stuff, a lot of it
raw and edgy. I’m going to be doing a lot of traveling, and we’ll
have a lot of that. I want it to be fun.
M: I see you’ve got a little buzz going on the blogs about one of
your…ahem, escorting gigs involving a dominatrix and an unnamed
celebrity.
N:  I get a lot of people coming to me for escorting stuff, they
think that now that I’ve won an award, I am the expert. They ask me
about my adventures, so I wrote a blog about one of the situations I
experienced in NY.  A pregnant dominatrix and a male celebrity were
there – of course, I wouldn’t reveal who he was, but I did tell In
Touch that he was in an issue of People Magazine’s Sexiest Men Alive.A bunch of blogs have posted the story, trying to figure out who the
guy is. I put all the links to them on my blog page. It happened
years ago, but I just decided to write the story to answer a
blogger’s question.
M:  Do you Twitter?
N:  I set up a Twitter account, but I don’t even know how to Twitter.
M:  Hey, even I can do it. It’s amazing. So let’s get to the good
stuff. Are you still sober?
N:  It’s been since December 2007.  I’m really excited about that. My
whole lifestyle has changed on account of it. I’m about to do a new
project in LA called “Sober and Sexy.”  I want to be a part of it.
There is so much of our gay demographic that is dying because of
substance abuse.  I was one of them, and it’s very close to my heart.
M:  What made you realize you had to stop?
N:  I don’t even know. I was miserable. I couldn’t have a
relationship. I couldn’t work. There were no more videos, no Nick
Capra. There was no “mom,” who I was very close to. It was like
experiencing a living death. I was like a shell. I asked for help,
got a sponsor, worked the steps…now it’s all turned around. I’ve got
my health back, my body back, my career back. I’ve got my mom back.
I’m happy, too. I was not happy before.
M:  There are others, I’m sure, that are in the same situation that
you were in.
N:  And it’s not just the porn industry. It’s every facet of the
entertainment industry, especially. Many gay men just don’t know how
to communicate and socialize or be sexual without being under the
influence.
M: Last time we spoke, I think you had done one film with Michael
Lucas. Any comments on working with the diva?
N:  I went to Fire Island and shot with him. I got to spend time with
him, and you know what? I think I could have fallen for Michael.
That’s something you’re not going to hear a lot, because many are on
the other side of the spectrum when it comes to Lucas. I spent some
intimate time with Michael, let’s just say that, and he is sexually
insatiable, and a marketing genius. There’s something so attractive
about him, and I feel safe when I’m around him. He’s a real gentleman.
M:  I’m sure that when he sees this, your check will be in the mail.
Your Titan movie “Slow Heat in a Texas Town” has been out for about a
month. It’s a Joe Gage film. How was it working with him?
N: I love Joe. He’s got a very gentle approach. He makes me feel verywelcome on the set. He knows what he wants, he knows how to get it
out of the performer.
M: Now that you have your own site and studio, are you going to do
any work for anyone else?
N:  I’m shying away from it a little bit right now. If I get
something good like “Slow Heat….,” that would be great. If Michael
Lucas asked me to do something really raunchy, I’d probably do it.
Especially if it were something really different. I’m more interestedin doing this creative process on my own.
M:  Now, on to the bottoming thing.
N:  I think there are a couple of guys out there I’d really like to
bottom for.
M:  Do they know this?
N:  Mmmmmmmm…well, I haven’t really put it out there yet. If they’re
foreign and uncut, and hairy, they can come to the front of the line.
M:  Oh come on…give me some exclusive dirt.
N:   Well…I haven’t posted it on my website yet, but I bottomed forRobert Van Damme.
M:   Did you now. And you’ve been keeping it from us.
N:   We did a hot scene that will be on the site. We actually went
out and played football together. We didn’t know quite what we were
going to do, we were originally just going to do some oral stuff and
I hadn’t decided if I was going to bottom for him, and then I said,
“Let’s go fuck,” and he said, “Are you sure? You’re not a power
bottom.” He does have a big dick. I said, “Sure, let’s do it – you
look so hot in those shorts right now, with that dick swinging around.”
M:  So you got Robert – foreign and uncut.
N:  Yup – big thick accent and big thick dick. It’s not up on the
site yet, we’re saving that one. Probably within the next six weeks.
M:  Well, that made the call worthwhile. Best of luck with the site.
It’s a lot of work.
N:  I couldn’t do it without doing the program. I don’t mean to
preach, but I’m really active in the gay sober community. And I’d
also like to mention Jett Blakk. Jett has been a huge part of my
support group and of the site. He is a big part of the creative
process. He was there for me when I was a mess, and he helped me get
it together. He is my business partner on NickCapra.com, and he is a
great collaborator and supporter.


Also, I finally broke down and set up a Twitter account. I've been resisting it only because I am busy as it is and the last thing I wanted was one more thing keeping me glued to the computer..But, I suppose I need to stay with the times, so Twitter it is! Catch up with me Nick Capra at:  www.twitter.com

I also noticed that there was some more Press about the launch of my new site. Here are the links to it:
