misty, water colored (and blurry) memories by me:

No matter what this was going to be the biggest party on Saturday. Hell, the biggest party this weekend (I demoted Hirshhorn to a regular post as this had such man-up power over it and approximately 5 times more photos.)
In any case: Adrian Loving comes back from World Music Conference in Miami, throws a bash with some of DC’s finest DJs (see full list here), at a warehouse no one has ever been to and before you know it I am wearing a disco ball for a dress, drinking gin and juice (they ran out of vodka so we all had to tap into our inner Nelly), people are either dancing like crazy or taking chair naps, Chris Burns is in a man tank top and it is 4am. Which would not have been so bad had there not been not one, not two but three pre-parties preceding this whole mess.

And now, in three parts:
130+ photos x 1000 words worth each = everything you needed or didn’t need to know about Saturday.

If you were smart you just slept in on Sunday.
If you were smarter you went and sang karaoke in Capitol Hill’s finest 7-days-a-week-happy-hour-establishment also known as The Banana Cafe.
If you were smartest you took Monday off to recover.
One out of three is not too bad.

10$ cover, plus money for drink tickets, gets you a long line at the bathroom and a generally snooty crowd who reminded me of really watered down version of Buzz.

you guys are good DJs….how come youre playing these Starbucks friendly “warehouse” parties?

two words come to mind- simulacra and simulation.

I would have to agree with “Not to Mention.” While it was great seeing people, and the environment was certainly grimey enough, there seemed to be something missing. Maybe it was the frigid rain outside and the lack of services inside. A dope spot, but not even close to as fun as the infamy that was Gold Leaf.

It was nice to be in at a party that was 95% douche-free.

Despite the bathroom line situation.. this party was off the hook. I hope there’s more to come!

Hot party. Nice music. Great multicultural crowd. I loved the fact that they played House music and dance music that people can dance to, not stare at dj’s like there at a concert. Do it again.
