Tiny’s K.O. is giving Arclight’s 21+ screenings a run for its money. Every Monday night my fave Hollywood bar will be projecting some of the best dark and twisted flicks on its north wall. Who wants $5 popcorn and $6 beer when you’ve got a $2 happy hour food menu and $3 PBRs and Miller…

uWink Bistro's 24 TV Show Viewing Party
Nothing is more fun than getting together with like-minded souls and cringing, yelling and cheering in unison. Since I’m not a big sports fan, I’ll content myself with uWink Bistro’s weekly 24 viewing party. Fans of the show can converge on the media bar every Monday night to catch their man in action. That’s right,…
Dainties Cupcakes: A Different Kind of Cupcake
While strolling to Zankou Chicken for lunch, I was cutting through the alley when I noticed a sign behind Winchell’s Donuts for Dainties Cupcakes. Despite the fact that the entrance didn’t look like a store front at all, let alone one that sells cute cupcakes, but rather a sketchy office entrance, I was drawn to…

Caroline on Crack Happy Hour at the Royale
Hey all, I wanted to invite you to a get-together I’m throwing at the fab Royale on Wilshire tomorrow night. I’ve been wanting to have an event there ever since I first set foot in that lounge last month. It’s so pretty and big and empty on a weekday — perfect for a gathering. I…
Free Booze at Beauty Bar's 7th Anniversary Party
Flickr Shot by Beatnikside On the same night that Lava Lounge is celebrating its last night in Hollywood, the Beauty Bar will be throwing a bash for its 7th anniversary. It brought you the Prell cocktail, the manicure/martini happy hour and the Drop Dead Gorgeous beauty pageant, I’ll say it should be celebrated. DJ Erick…
Breakfast at the Firehouse: The More Things Change, the More They Suck
When I lived near Venice, the Firehouse on Rose and Main used to be one of my favorite breakfast joints. Great service, great coffee, great breakfast sandwiches and great big glasses of iced beverages that were perfect for thirsty Muscle Beach bodybuilders. But I haven’t gone there in maybe a year or so. Yesterday though,…
L.A. Barhopper Mystery Bus Tour: A Night of Accidental Debauchery
Ugh, my head hurts. I haven’t had a hangover like this since…I don’t know when. What’s funny is that before I got on board L.A. Barhopper’s Mystery Bus Tour, I swore to myself and my friends that I wasn’t going to get plastered. Usually two drinks is my max, for practical reasons. But I guess…
Lava Lounge's Last Days: Fire Sale, Kinky Karaoke & Burlesque
After 13 years serving the Hollywood nightlife hidden in the boring confines of a La Brea strip mall, the Lava Lounge is bidding you “aloha.” Which is sad because it’s one of those places I’ve always meant to check out but never did thinking it would always be around. I know, nothing in club life…
Santa Monica Planet Blue's Annual 50% Off Storewide Sale
OK, I was really conflicted about posting this especially since I have sworn this store off but I figured a 50% storewide sale off designer goods is always newsworthy. So, yeah, the huge (three times bigger than paparazzi stakeout location, the Malibu PU) Santa Monica Planet Blue is having a two-day sale on its entire…
