>> The Dynamites featuring Charles Walker bring a little funk and whole a lotta soul to Iota tonight. 9 p.m., $10.
>> Dana Whitaker stops by Busboys and Poets for an upbeat talk about microfinance, and we know there are at least a few of you international development geeks out there who might like to stop by.

Nice photo of Dremo's. I thought this was a DCist, not Arlingtonist. I'm offended and am removing this website from my bookmarks.
Also I'll be spinning the Gothic/Industrial and EBM at Chronos (located at Five) with my former Alchemy cohorts 2501 and Dirty B.
As always open bar 9-10! 21+ Cover is $7.
Is that comedy thing still going on at 18th & Red thursday nights? It was actually decent a couple weeks ago.
