Weekend Preview 07/06-07/08

Fourth of July hits us on a Wednesday this year and depending on who you work for and what you do, this is either an awesome thing or it sucks real bad. Let's assume that you have a good job and a boss who wants you to get the most out of life so he/she told you to get the hell out of here and enjoy an extended weekend away from the office.
Obviously there are lots of fireworks to see tonight but moving into the weekend, there are some great shows happening that you really should make sure not to miss. Let's get into it shall we?


Friday night has Steve Lawler coming in to Ruby Skye to show everyone what he is really made of. If you have never seen this man perform, you really should... If you have, you know what i am talking about. Music at it's finest on one of the best sound systems in the country = great night out. As an added bonus, Mr. Lawler will be playing an after party next door at Slide after this show. You must buy tickets ahead of time for this intimate engagement and you can do so here. For the house heads, Remedy is throwing you an independence weekend bone by making their monthly event a freebie @ DNA Lounge! No cover all night long... Can't beat that.



Saturday night, things kick up another notch with DJ superstars Blank & Jones poppin in to Ruby Skye and D:Fuse @ 1015. Both shows will be big over the top electronica nights with packed sweaty dance floors and crowds going crazy. These are some of the biggest names in DJ music so get ready. If you are looking for a bit more of the local vibe, CODA (a brand new Burning Man Camp) is throwing their monthly fundraising party over at Shine. With $10 cover and some of the sickest local DJ's around, this is my pick of the night for the place to be. If you are into funk, one of the countries fastest rising Funk bands is hitting The Independent on Saturday as well. Dumpstaphunk is a New Orleans funk band that will make your booty move guaranteed so check em out if funk is your bag.



Have a great long weekend everyone and get out there and do some partying!
