Best Weekend Bets

Best Weekend Bets

April 9, 2009 by Svetlana

I have been in meetings most of the day.
Cale has not even made it into his office yet.
Libby has been slaying dragons.
We did not get to write “Best weekend bets” in time.
Sue us.
Don’t pay us.
Oh wait-we do this for free.

ANYWAYS, since the calendar is already REALLY WELL STOCKED, and the whole purpose of this column is for people to shamelessly self-promote in comments APPROACH THIS AS A DIY day.
The floor, as they say, is yours.

Just try not to kill any tourists in the process.

LVLUP continues this month in our new Venue on the second floor Almaz Lounge located at 1212 U St. across from Ben’s Chili Bowl. Everything that Red Lounge wasn’t this place is so don’t miss out on this new venue and party. We feel reborn through the chaos of last month.
This time around we’ve got DC party power Stereo Faith to help break in our new soundsystem and Baltimore bad boy Balagan warming things up.
Sean Gone and Philip Goyette will of course be on hand to do what we do.
This party is free before 11 and $5 after with Facebook RSVP.

I’ll be holding the 2nd Official Loda Bass Face Competition at Midnight Tonight at Gallery for the 2009 DnB Directory Party.
winner gets a free drink and a special “surprise” from me. So bring your “A” game people…..

**INSIDER TIP – sometimes it helps to rub something smelly on your upper lip to give you that extra “stanky” effect to your bass face – hehehe

@Chad

cause we did a ticket giveaway for it like a year ago, and then we didn’t get an interview and his new show sucked and I forgot about it.

I wish Velodrome was Sat, I’m staying in tonight. Can someone throw a great house party Sat and invite me, thanx!
