Well, all the little college rugrats have scampered off to school to spread their STDs in other states like deadly disease vectors, so I guess that's the end of summer.
I can summarize the differences between last summer and this as follows:
- Indie rock → electrohouse.
- Boca → South Miami.
- Vodka → whiskey.
- Bud Lite → Miller High Life (gross, I know).
- Camel No. 9 → Camel shitty space age crush-for-menthol cancer sticks.
- Pawn Shop → White Room.
- Studio A → sadness :(
- Latin Cafeteria and Uva → Lost and Found and Mike's
- Open bars → favors
Oh well, enough reminiscing; this car doesn't have a rear view mirror. Let's stock up on liquor, diesel fuel (for huffing), and morning after pills for this long weekend. Read on for our excessive amount of suggestions for this Labor Day weekend.
Updated: I forgot a bunch of parties. Doh.
Thursday:
{{photo:right:20883}}Money Shot at Vagabond presents.. some vaguely StarWars themed thing, featuring DJ Keen One (who is very talented and diverse, if you haven't heard him) and Obi T. More important than all that music stuff is this: "ARRIVE EARLY!! FREE JOSE CUERVO TEQUILA TASTING & JOSE CUERVO GOLDEN MARGARITA SPECIAL ALL NIGHT!" They said it, and I'm going to hold them to it, even when I'm behaving myself like a drunken belligerent Mexican with tequila spilled all over my paunch.
Friday:
{{photo:20885}} Fracture at White Room featuring techno producer Reverse Commuter from LA (with Mansur and Sabox doing the warm up) and Cosmo (who has remixed the likes of Yelle, The Junkies and Shiny Toy Guns) from NYC, along with residents Johnny Strokes and Diego De La Vega. Win a pair of tickets courtesy of us, or say Miami Nights at the door for reduced $10 admission all night and your first drink is free.
Saturday:
Roger Sanchez at Mansion. Mansion continues with the fire bookings. $30 on Wantickets and worth it: this man is insane.
Aquabooty at Raleigh Hotel. Pool Party 3-9pm. RSVP to enter. Penthouse Sessions 11-4am, featuring a 3hr set by Osunlade. Must buy tickets: absolutely no comps. Aquabooty.com for more information.
{{photo:right:20884}}Jupina Colada at PS14. Featuring the internally renowned Otto Von Schirach, Jose El Rey, El Tigre and Peasants with Feathers. I have absolutely no idea what to expect from this performance, except perhaps to expect the unexpected, but that's what I always do due to my cat-like reflexes and insane, paralyzing paranoia.
Poplife at White Room shakes it up a bit with their Jet Set party. The idea here is to dress up and be.. whats that word.. oh, classy. I like it! DJ Rok One from New York is performing along with local nightclub vet Tom Grizz and Vida.
Sunday:
{{photo:20886}} Conway and friends (and us) bring you yet another annual Easy Sunday at Buck15 party, featuring absolutely no bullshit. Like a house party but without the silverware theft. I am going to eat like 100 Xanax and grin dumbly all night because I need to relax. Until I fall down those precariously steep stairs on my way to the bathroom.
Monday:
{{photo:right:20887}}Our boyfriends at SMAC are doing a one-off daytime beach party at Nikki Beach. Music by Shawn Rudnick and Lizardi. This sounds fun to me. But then again I watch a lot of MSNBC so what do I know about fun?
the boca anarchy lives on! haha
So, he was in Miami just mere hours later? Damn.
*Why does Miami suck on Labor Day weekend anyway? It *doesn't* have to be ghetto, but it does. Why?
Reverse Commuter, Roger Sanchez, and Boris all on one weekend? That's a lot less suck than most weekends.
LOLZ!!!
