The Place: Electric Warehouse
The Price: $20-$50
The Details: Okay, I know what you're saying, "brah fifty fucking bucks? Fuck you dude!" And you're probably right but there's a ton of people you probably know involved and general (no open bar) cover is $20, which ain't bad. So get in then hit up your homey who's DJing and get a VIP band. Rye Rye and Maluca are performing as are Rocky Business, Memberz Only, Planet Cognac. DJs are Crisis Kids, Anton Glamb, Hiro, Cobra Krames and WCKids.
