See and Be Scene - October 17th

Ok - this Saturday is EPIC (see the caps? that means I'm yelling). Unfortunately, with an epic Saturday night ahead - there are also tough decisions to be made.

3 must see events tonight - but alas, only so many hours in the night. Let's not waste time and get straight to the decision making process. Tonight:

Notorious Funk at the Scoot Inn (1308 E. 4th Street). Two of my favorite DJ's (Orion vs Prince Klassen) are facing off and spinning two of my favorite artists (Biggie vs. James Brown). The party is going from 9 - 2 a.m. and if you RSVP here you can get in for $3. Even if you don't RSVP, the cover is only $5 at the door.
Custom clothing will be made at Scoot inn by Tripp T-Shirts and be sure to get your picture snapped by the roaming photogs capturing the fun. All of this is presented by Knuckle Rumbler and Do512.com.


Crazy costume Romanian dancing party more your style? Check out the Gadjo Disko tonight at the Cockpit (113 San Jacinto). We went to the last Gadjo Disko back in August and this one looks just as promising. Imagine the most extreme, weird and bizarre outfit that you could possibly wear...now dress stranger. You'll fit right in. Plus, if you dress up the cover is only $7, as opposed to "normal" people have to pay $15 to get in. Expect great music from Stanley Roy, Little Stolen Moments, Minor Mishap Marching Band, DJ Chicken Kiev & Sick! Party goes all night from 10 - 4 a.m. Opa!


One last event that is on our must-attend list is Electri-CITY (ArcAttack). This is going down in Kenny Dorham's backyard at 1106 E. 11th St. There will be two 12' tall singing Tesla Coils brought to you by ArcAttack. They are described as "an eye popping spectacle of musical midi-controlled electricity that you must hear and see to believe". Advance tickets are $5 here.
The event starts at 8:30 and the bands start at 9. Bands inlcude Panjoma (an eclectic electronic blend of pop and rock), Gobi, DubNautica and special guest DJ John Thomas. Beer and liquor services provided by Side Bar and multi-screen video projection will be provided by HipNautica.
Sponsors for the event include: Navdo, Puzzelle Productions, Diverse Arts Austin, Zebra Imaging, ATX Underground.


Whatever you decide, be sure to check out at least one of the above (or if you're an amazing multi-tasker, all three). See you out!

xoxo
