Sky Lounge-Saturday 7/26

In a sea of t-shirts, tanks, jeans, and flip flops on a Saturday night, yes, indeed there is a lounge in Federal Hill where one may want to leave the flip flops in the car and wear nice heels. The lounge is known as Sky Lounge on 1041 Marshall Street.

Originally, we, girls, were thinking about going to Mosaic at PowerPlant, but instead we opted for Sky Lounge in Federal Hill. We arrived at Sky Lounge around 10:30 PM and stayed the whole night until close. The martini's were great, although the Oatmeal Cookie has gotten a little more spicy. Jagermeister was added to the Oatmeal Cookie martini. (Shorty's in Canton makes a great Oatmeal Cookie). The South Beach was fruity and refreshing without being too sweet or syrupy. The DJ started off with some hip hop and then ended the night with Daft Punk from late 90s. We danced a bit and it got more crowded around 11:30 or 12 midnight, but certainly more interesting. We were the most dressed up there. Flip flops, jeans and tanks somehow made it through the door.

We had a good night!

Sunday = rest.

Apocalyptica at the 9:30 Club

Wednesday evening, May 7th, we went to the 9:30 Club in DC NW to see Apocalyptica, a Finnish heavy metal band that jams out, rocks out, and thrashes away on four cellos and a drum. We were among the last to arrive with the music starting. I could tell it'd be a good show by watching the lead cellists play. This was my first time seeing Apocalyptica. I originally found them on Myspace. Most assuredly it was a great show! It is hard to find the right words to describe how amazing it was!
