Insider Picks
Friday night whether you knew Jocelyn or not, swing by the Gulu and put your $10 toward something worth while, you will gain mucho karma points. Saturday get out there and party party party let DJ Cee Block kick your weekend into high gear with some fine beats over at O’Neills. Remember that you have Monday off so keep the weekend rolling on Sunday, I’m going to make my annual pilgramige to the Rockmore for some day drinks then check out a set with Big Shoes to Phil at Dodge Street followed up by a little Labor Day party with Wildfire over at Rockafellas. Monday you can find me In a Pigs Eye for a little hair of the dog with one of the best Bloody Marys around.
