So, without noticing, this weekend in all its UNDERPANTSED (is this a word? probably not), FREE ART AND W(h)INE glory has snuck up on us and now we have to deal with it.
Namely, we have to deal with the fact that our usually commando selves NEED some presentable underwear for Saturday and then some.
Now, these are the BYT picks.
And despite the fact that we like to think we're all knowing, we know you know better so check the full calendar and recommend away in comments.
Deals?
Deals on wheels.
ok, so here is your weekend in which you wear no clothes and spend no money on wine or cheese.
Thursday
Now, we are FOR SURE, FOR SURE going to the Listopad Cocktail Hour at Red Onion.
After that...a toss up:
head over to the Cat for Bellman Barker and His Name is Alive which will be lovely or
Science Club is hosting Aldo Vanucci for one night only. This is the man Fatboy slim gets his samples from so....
And yes, the Helvetica screenings at the Corcoran are sold out.
Friday
Do or die:
For art and cheese: Dissident Display's Wild Styleopening gets all of our collective thumbs up. But also, The DC Film Shorts is having its opening at the Poste Brasserie at Hotel Monaco. Not to mention that YO! Raps thing with "complimentary beverages" at the Puma store we all somehow got invited to.
Then for dancing: hang with the girls at Reform School or with boys and champagne at Le Freak at Napoleon
Saturday
Spend the morning trying on all things fishnety and high heeled and just as you start seeing yourself as a dancing sex slave (to the rythm, of course) in preparation for this snap out of it and dedicate some time to enlightening your soul because:
There is soooooooo much art in town this weekend, from Arts on Foot to Jenny Holzer at the Kennedy Center to Ian Whitmore's opening to Ansel Adams at the Corcoran to X at BeBar the must-go Chuck Close at Adamsonthat we hope your shoes are comfortable and your you've been conditioning your wine drinking stamina.
After that, get naked and come to our 6th Underwear party at R'N'R Hotel. Which is free if you check your clothes in and disrobe. (this rule, actually, applies to most things in life) We promise to make Joel use a soft, flattering flash.
Sunday
wake up ashamed yet proud of yourself.
watch some free movies, eat come free food or stay in a fetal position for most of the day.
God loves a cheerful giver.
Or straddle 160+ horses while wearing a leather suit and throw a 380lb motorcycle around on a track, which is what I'll be doing.
1 Horse = 1,000lbs, = 1 horsepower
1 Ducati - 380lbs, = 167 horsepower
Sorry to miss the underwear party - which need not be said considering how public my boobage lust is.
Boilermaker Jazz Band at Glen Echo Friday night
possibly Reform School afterwards
Right Round for my 80's fix at Black Cat
after stopping by Garutachi first, of course
Lily are you going to right round in your undies?
is the undies party 18 to get in or 21?
18. Equal opportunity nudity.
It really shouldn't be equal opportunity nudity.
There's like 3 people on BYT I'd opt to see nude. The rest I'd opt not to. And I'm glad I have an excuse to opt not to.
Not that anyone wants to see me nude because I'm fat and old, but I'm still cooler than everyone else. Just born that way I guess. Not my fault.
fat man don't wear fitted vests
so you're not fat, case and point
excellent seeing you at Club Heaven for 80's last night
and yes, i will be going to Right Round in my VS lingerie, to spread word of the BYT party, of course
found my 30's and 40's vintage collegiate skirts
so might have to make an appearance at Reform School as well
