Hot Ticket
We may be kicking ourselves tomorrow for tipping you off, but a very cool tour was announced last week, and they’re graciously visiting our fair city for two nights in March. Tickets go on sale tomorrow morning, so get those credit cards ready. A couple other noteworthy tours are coming our way too, so clear your calendars and get ready to throw some elbows around on Craigs’ List.
Mary J. Blige Album Release Party
First motorcycles, now major recording artists. D.C. is becoming the place to unveil new stuff. Tomorrow night Chloe will host the official U.S. release party for Mary J. Blige‘s new release, The Breakthrough. Drop a line to get on the list and enjoy the many drink specials, but get there early — the first 100 people get a free CD!
