So, the weekend was interesting, no?
Friday and Saturday were ho hum, the usual with nothing particularly lacking, we don’t think.
Sunday was VJ day in RI. Do you assholes know what that means? Shit is open til’ 2, as it is a state-recognized holiday thanks to the victims of Hiroshima & Nagasaki. Remember Japan!
And then forget with liquor!
Anyway, nobody was out & about. Mirabar? A wasteland! Dark Lady? Don’t kid yourself…
In any case, we ended up at Trixx for a little bit which was the busiest party in town. We spotted some regulars, but things didn’t get interesting until one of the strippers known to us approached our table with a white pill, curious to find out if he could sell it. We’re not fucking pharmacists, so we consulted the internet to figure out if we could lie to the kid and sell it ourselves… it turns out it was a Lipitor! Cholesterol medication! The next pill the boy brought up was a pill to help treat Type 2 Diabetes.
Leave it to Trixx to have bathrooms strewn with pills prescribed to geriatrics.
Monday night we went to Mirabar’s karaoke… again… grudgingly.
It was the usual night at MB, however our sweet little bartender Joel had his register robbed of ALL cash while he was outside having a cigarette around 12:15, leaving the TWO doormen to watch the bar from the corner of their eye. WTF? Poor Joel was fired on the spot for his carelessness. We’ve never heard of anything so deplorable here in Providence until we found out it was our very own Mirabar general manager, Paul Murphy who was to blame, as it was a prank on the unsuspecting sweetheart. We’re always down for inappropriate behavior, but this seemed a little harsh.
Anyway, we also found out this week about the “cancerous” DJ Playboy Marco headlining a new shit-show night at Energy on Thursday with the help of local hot mess Tony McGill as promoter. The flyer announces a hot body contest, with a cash prize of $75.
Who else sees something wrong with this? Mirabar has a hot body contest with prize money routinely in the hundreds of dollars, and Dark Lady has the same deal with a prize of $100 cash. Do these retards not go out? The icing on this one is that Tony McGill wants to bill this as a straight night.
We’re almost more likely to hit up an Elements Sunday than an Energy Thursday with that attitude.
Our last little bit of gratification is having called out a total and utter failure for Jamie and Glory’s Therapy night, for which they had 4 additional scheduled nights to promote for. Well, it turns out that after the first night, management had had enough of such bullshit, and Therapy is free again to operate (mostly) trashless.
Talk amongst yourselves!
