A-list for this week! (2/20-2/26)


Imagine a cutesy/kitschy gastro pub with delicious food and a local record store featuring classic and local LPs and 45s having a love child! Every Thursday at 10pm, Pat's tap hosts Yeti Records spinning tunes from their collection. On this special night, we are excited to hear what tunes they will choose. Can't you just see it now? Eating Bangers & Mash while head banging to some 80's hair metal band that they've pulled out of the mix? Don't forget their happy hour, $3 rails and house wines and $2 off taps. This happy hour is also known as the "Party Booby Trap." Get trapped (in the best way possible) as the music serenades you and your palette refines at Pat's tap every Thursday!

Trust me, this song will not get out of your head!



Berlin, "The Queer Indie Revolution is here!" at Club Underground on 2/25:

Minneapolis is on the rise with many weekly to monthly dance nights happening all over the city. Sometimes you just want to hear all of those dance-y, riot girl, new wave beats all wrapped into one single dance party and sing the screeching tunes of Kathleen Hannah at the top of your lungs to show of your cool points. Or maybe that is just me. Either way, Berlin is a new monthly dance party that is hosted at Club Underground and was brought to life because they know there are a lot of people out there who don't want to listen only top 40s music to get their groove on. Think Robyn, Peaches, Sleighbells, Old Madonna, Crystal Castles & many more all mashed up with beats that will get your body moving in crazy, spastic motions all over the dance floor! PBR Tall boys are only $2.75. Click the header link above for more details on the event.



 
This is what I am going to dress like for this event.



According to the people who are throwing this event, this is an "international phenomenon." It got me to thinking, who originally created this edgy concept where local performance artists come in and you draw them? Did this originator also host this event in a bar on a Sunday morning, with bloody marys as cheap as $5? Does this guy or girl now refer to themselves as Doctor Sketchy? Either way, the 331 club has given me yet another reason to roll out of bed on a Sunday afternoon. Between the creative atmosphere they provide in the dark, comforting one room bar and the deliciously affordable bloody mary bar at my disposal, this seems like a proper way to spend a lazy Sunday without being, you know, so lazy!
