Dump the Dive

We all love a good dance night. And, we admit that we have a soft spot for dive bars. But mixing the two on a weekly basis can get a little creepy. And sometimes, it causes debauchery overload. That's why we're glad to hear that William Fucking Reed and Co...

We all love a good dance night. And, we admit that we have a soft spot for dive bars. But mixing the two on a weekly basis can get a little creepy. And sometimes, it causes debauchery overload.

That's why we're glad to hear that William Fucking Reed and Co. have hauled their Sticky Fingers dance party from the dive-y Rips Ales & Cocktails to Bar Smith where the vibe is relaxed but not trashy; where you can order a Stella instead of a PBR; and where you can have a smoke on the rooftop patio rather than the parking lot.

Classy, eh?

Check out this killer dance night on with resident DJs Prince $$, Austin Head, Pickster One, and more will spin as The Get Downnn and Electric Valentine show off their electronic pop mixes.
