What Does Your Drink Say About You?

What Message Does Your Drink Order Send?

What you drink says a lot. Whether you’re at clubs in DC or the local bar, what you’re holding says a lot about who you are and how you’re seen.

Jesse Tittsworth Birthday Bash: Thurs 02.23.12 [U-Hall]

U Street Music Hall co-owner, moombahton mob boss, connoisseur of gastronomy and friend of octopi near and far Jesse Tittsworth is turning 30-something!

jesse tittswoth u hall washington dcThe DC nightlife favorite is celebrating as only a DJ/club owner should – with a reckless sh*t show of a party!

Starting things off is Switch vs. Sinden. You may know Switch from his work as 1/2 of Major Lazer.

He and Diplo have been responsible for some of the most bad ass dance music-reggae-dance hall crossovers to date.

He’s crushed it at festivals, killed it in clubs and is for sure gonna slam his boy Titts’ birthday!

And what’s a DJ’s birthday without some tunes by the guest of honor? Jesse Tittsworth needs no introduction to DC clubbing. His involvement with U-Hall was the icing on U Street’s nightlife revival.

His reckless energy behind the decks in on display throughout the country and world.

He’s been in the studio working something furious lately, prepare for the new hotness!

  • Website: littlemisswhiskeys.com
  • Contact: (202)-555-0666
  • Atmosphere: Little Miss Whiskey’s has a New Orleans voodoo meets biker bar meets metal feel. Dim purple lights and hard rock/metal billings on the wall are a nice touch. Of course the weekend crowd is full of young people, hipsters, etc. The music is funky and the best of 80’s and 90’s. It’s a chill dive bar with a dance floor. Downstairs is calm, upstairs can get wild.
Venue Overview

Walking into Little Miss Whiskey’s on H Street is like walking into a low key new orleans bar for metal heads and bikers. The dim purple lights, slayer and pantera billings and voodoo skulls on the wall in the back give it an eerie yet somehow inviting vibe. Probably because there aren’t any bikers or voodoo priests, just hipsters and other H-street types. The beer selection is huge and the vibe is chill.

The back of the first floor has bathrooms with a long row of barbershop chairs. We thought that was pretty awesome. But not as awesome as the effort they must have put into finding the perfect decorations!
H Street bars and clubs Washington DC

Heading through a cased-off door and up the stairs brings you to a 2nd bar, raised DJ booth and dance floor with levels at the back. Unlike Sticky Rice, this H Street location is more of a place to dance and hook up (if you’re lucky). Then again, you could chill downstairs. It’s a pretty awesome spot if you’re looking for a club alternative.

The outdoor patio features a gothic garden fountain, a bathtub full of bubbles, gold plates hanging on one side of the fence, and flowers on the other. It’s pretty nice. The only thing is that their agreement with the neighbors is that the patio has to reamin ‘civil’ after Midnight.

Parties

1st & 3rd Wednesdays: Kostume Karaoke w/ Debbi Arseneaux
2nd & 4th Wednesdays: Kiss Kiss Bang Bang: Alternative music from the 80’s.
4th Thursdays: Denman: heavy, hair, mean, death, filthy nasty grimy leg-kickin metal.. and ROKK.
1st Fridays: Moneytown w/ DJ Nightkrawler & guests: Old school funk, soul, disco, & boogaloo.

  • Atmosphere: Sticky Rice’s self-proclaimed “charming atmosphere and bad attitude” have given it a glowing reputation in DC’s H Street Corridor. Its American/Pan-Asian selection of fresh sushi, sandwiches, salads and other entrees make it a foodie favorite.

    Sticky Rice’s DC nightlife offering is great! The vibe, the people, the music, it just embodies a great time. Simple and fun. Everyone is smiling, dancing around to feel-good top 40 past and present, doing shots and loving life. It’s a great place to go out as you are and have fun. It’s definitely not big, and sure as sh*t is no club. What it is, is a bar full of happy people.

Venue Overview

Sticky rice is easy to navigate. When you walk in there’s a staircase leading upstairs to a dining area, bathrooms and possibly a back patio. We weren’t sure if that was on or off limits to patrons.

sticky rice h street dc
As you can see, Sticky Rice is just an old fashioned good time!

The main bar area is backed by sinister red lighting, a small standing area that may turn into a dance floor, and in the center, stairs leading to a mid-level sushi bar. At the end of that sushi bar is a little booth. It looks like there should be a bad ass, back door card game going on there.
The upstairs of H Street's Sticky Rice
The space is small and if people are dancing you’re definitely gonna be bumping into people on your way to the bar, to the bathroom or home. It’s all good though, everyone’s nice and well to do.

Parties

Tuesday: TBA

Grammy Slam

grammy awardA Truly Tasteless Grammys Wrap UpGrammy Award

Amidst a sea of narcisism, the 2012 Grammy hopefuls dazzled, disgusted, and depressed the second highest Grammy viewing audience ever with 40 million viewers. Whitney Houston’s death helped boost the numbers, with fans seeking some Kumbaya after Houston’s departure late Saturday evening.

The stars in attendance were as random as the performances which included everyone from Tony Benet and The Beach Boys to David Guetta, Nicki Minaj, Chris Brown and Taylor Swift.

Chris Brown
Chris Brown
Bully Beat Down

Chris Brown returned to the Grammys with his new single “Turn Up the Music” and dance smash “Beautiful People”.

It’s bad enough he and Rihanna were in the same room together, but the lip-synching we could have done without.

He later picked up the award for Best R&B Album for F.A.M.E., ‘beating’ out several more of R&B’s top stars.

Nicki Minaj
Nicki Minaj
Nicki Minaj needs an exorcism!

Nicki Minaj goes all sacrilegious and scary.

The Versace-caped Minaj arrived with her date, the Pope, then terrified the audience with her performance of her new song “Roman Holiday”.

First there was Lady Gaga, now pop diva wanna be’s like Minaj and Katey Perry try in desperation to outdo her egg arrival and crazy wardrobe.

“Take your medication, Roman/ Take a short vacation, Roman/ You’ll be OK,” she rapped.  Do us all a favor and take a permanent vacation Minaj!

Katy Perry
Katy Perry
Smurfette never had roots!

Katy Perry Smurfed at the Grammys, with a matching blue hairstyle and light-blue, long-sleeved Elie Saab gown.

The blue hair did nothing to distract from her lip-syncing performance and left the audience wondering if the carpet matches the drapes?

At least touch up those roots!

Foo Fighters
Foo Fighters
God save rock n' roll

The Foo Fighters brought back rock n’ roll performing their hit “Walk” and nabbing 5 Grammy’s.

Grohl reminded fans that his latest album, “Wasting Light” was recorded in his garage, then made some remarks that were clearly directed at pop artists who opt to auto tune rather than develop their musical talents.

“To me this award means a lot because it shows that the human element of music is what’s most important,” he said, as members of the audience began to applaud. “Singing into a microphone and learning to play an instrument and learning to do your craft, that’s the most important thing for people to do.”

Hint hint, Chris Brown, Katy Perry, Madonna, Britney Spears, you get the point…

Bruno Mars
Bruno Mars
Back in time with Bruno Mars

“Tonight we celebrate the music of Whitney Houston. Get off your rich asses and let’s have some fun!” Bruno Mars demanded of the audience.

Isn’t part of being rich getting to sit on your rich ass and think about your piles of money?

Mars and his Hooligans performed “Runaway Baby” in matching black-and-gold tuxedos.  Was that a “bump it” in his pompadour?

Rihanna
Rihanna
I'm gangsta!

Rihanna, who took home the Grammy for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for Kanye West’s “All of the Lights,” burned up the red carpet in a black Armani dress, which was reportedly inspired by Michelle Pfeiffer in Scarface.

The plunging dress is “simple, sexy, and gangsta at the same time,” explained Rihanna, who now sports an unconvincing blonde pile of hay on top of her head and looked skinnier than usual.

Wonder if her dad or brother ran into Chris Brown.

Lupe Fiasco
Lupe Fiasco
Who is Lupe Fiasco?

No date? Bring your mom!

That’s what Lupe Fiasco and J. Cole did for their double date stroll down the red carpet for their first Grammys.

I’m sure all Mr. Fiasco’s mother was thinking was,  “Who is Lupe Fiasco? I gave birth to Wasalu Muhammad Jaco!”

Adele
Pawn that gold Adele!

Adele ran away with the most Grammy’s, taking home six.

No need for an overly choreographed computerized mess. Just a stool is all the songbird needs to prove she has the chops to stand up and defeat her peers.

The Brit performed “Rolling in the Deep,” which won Song of the Year.

She’d be the perfect coach on ‘The Voice.;

Whitney Houston

The shocking news of Whitney Houston’s death made headlines late Saturday, which left little time for the Grammy’s to prepare a tribute.

None the less, an emotional Jennifer Hudson belted out a powerful rendition of Whitney’s classic “I Will Always Love You,” to a tearful audience.

 

David Guetta
David Guetta
EDM has arrived

Representing dance music in the current pop landscape was a collaborative performance featuring David Guetta and Deadmau5.

The DJs were joined onstage by an eclectic mix of artists, including the Foo Fighters, skateboard toting rapper Lil’ Wayne, and Breezy.

Electronic music fans may cry “sell out” but pretty sure Guetta isn’t sorry he’s not playing at basement raves for free and eating Ramen noodles!
