About this event
Sidetrack lights up for IML week with a glow party that sets the tone for the leather community's biggest celebration. Thursday night across the main, cherry, and north bars means there's room to move, people to meet, and that electric feeling of a week about to happen. Glow gear optional but encouraged.
