jubilee + dj orion @ beauty bar, february 11th 2011

i've witnessed jubilee bring a raucous party two times!
add PELIGROSA all-star dj orion to the mix & it got pretty damned hot in february.
those fucking assholes @ the liquor store by the ol' music gym started towing & took my car that night. dropped $250+ as ransom, yet i still couldn't get over how much fun i had this night.

learning secrets presents: sleigh bells @ beauty bar, october 9th 2010

tried to avoid the austin city limits festival as much as possible this year. got to leave town for work on thursday & even had a chance to stop in houston to hang w/one of my besties in her new/old digs.
couldn't stay away for the epicness @ @booty bar saturday night though. noise pop duo, @sleigh bells, were brought to town by the @learning secrets crew. i made it back to town just in time to wait during the longest soundcheck ever! i think there were some issues w/a sound board or something like it, whatever it was, it took a long time to get derek & alexis on stage. during the 2nd song, alexis' vocals were barely audible, but after that speed bump everything went smoothly. short. but smooth.
this was the 2nd time to see slay bells, & they have lived up to the slay part both times.
check out all the side stage shots i took!

@l.a.x. is doin' it & doin' it & doin' it well!
these boys & girls are certainly on an upward trajectory. they always put on a great show & for their "a ep" release party, they certainly did not disappoint.

the afterparty was again @ end bar//biker gallery. the new anti-dj @fuckmefuckme of the scene made this dive all hot & + sweaty. @uLOVEi made sure the beat kept bumpin'.

i've been layin' sooooper low during the week lately, but promised "the other james taylor" that i'd take fotos of this evening. unfortunately i missed the 1st band [they went on before 10!], had to skidaddle around midnight so i could get some zzzzz's & not be a total loser at work the next day. wah wah wah wah!
check out we aim to try:

hangin' out downtown w/my homegirl ish for the 1st time in a long time. for ol' times sake we cruised to creekside lounge [we thought this place was dead since peligrosa all stars moved their sweaty parties to the parish & now to club deville]. turns out that some motherfuckers still like to get their dance ON friday nights w/cheap loney tall-boys.
our homies manolo black & hobo d made sure to keep the dance floor hot/stinky, like the good ol' days!
