This new nightclub's envisioned as "Vegas-in-Hollywood", with 30-foot ceilings, 15 chandeliers dangling over the massive mid-room circular bar, and scantily-clad servers doubling as aerialists, trapeze artists, and contortionists. To get you in the door, the club's also offering unusual incentives, including to-and-from-club transpo, a rotating free shot w/ bottle service, 50% off the door price with a receipt from a taxi/bus/subway, and (starting next month) further shuttle service from nearby lots, because what happens in "Vegas-in-Hollywood" stays in a parking lot where you can't find your car.

Hit the open bar during opening night of this wildly eclectic art show, which features massive mosaics of Sugar Ray Leonard and Cassius Clay, typographically-themed paintings from a guy who did an official poster for LA's 1984 Olympics, surrealism from one of Weird Al's album-cover artists, and cartoonish self-portraits from one of the originators of reality TV, which you'll look at in disgust but nonetheless record the series.

Already a hit in Chi and Brooklyn, this event brings together 200 off-the-wall clothiers and gift-makers to peddle their uniqueness, with wares including 3 Fish Studio's wall-art prints of line-drawn robots, Poketo's colorful wallets, and ridiculous winged bulldog tees from Mis Nopales. There's also a slew of mini-events and performances, with a bring-your-own-crap-to-sell swap meet on Saturday and a show on Sunday from a live jazz-punk marching band, so, see you there Saturday!
