Wanna Get Drunk?
Booze Party is your guide to getting smashed on the cheap in NYC. Happy hours, open bars, drink specials and straight up cheap booze. Updated daily!
The Deal: $3 drinks, $2 beers all night
The Place: The Living Theatre
The Price: $5
The Details: This is a weird one for sure. We've got ourselves some kind of Crystal Castles tribute party or something like that. Are they really big enough to warrant something like this? In addition to cheap booze you'll also find three contortionists and a Japanese acrobat pole dancer...see, it's weird shit, man.

The Deal: $4 wells; $3 PBR+shot
The Place: Grand Billiards
The Price: $5
The Details: The $5 cover is bogus but otherwise this is rad. So the HUGE ass pool hall on Grand St. is under new management and throwing some wicked parties. Last night they had a crazy show and tonight it's a DJ party. What makes it so insane is the unreal drink specials. I mean, $3 for a shot of Jim Beam & a PBR? That's fan-fucking-tastico. I don't even give a shit about what else is going on. But on that note, free billiards all night!

The Deal: 2-4-1 Jameson 10-11; $3 PBR all night.
The Place: Savalas
The Price: FREE
The Details: I think I've been to this party a few times. If I recall, it's a whole lot of 90's bootie jams mixed in with the standards you'd expect. So basically it's a decent party but don't be surprised if you hear some Bell Biv Devoe or "Pump Up The Jams" at some point. With your favorite BK DJs: DirtyFinger, Full Time Fun and Cobra Krames.

The Place: Gallery Bar
The Price: FREE
The Details: A party dedicated to scantily clad babes in animal masks...we're OK with that. The only issue is so are lots of other horny dudes, so hopefully this doesn't turn into the 2010 NYC BroFest. So if you're a dude just stay home or you might ruin it for everyone else, you selfish bastard. With DJ's Full Time Fun, Mess Kid and AK.
