Make It Funky!

Posted on January 18, 2013 by

As they say, “the girl can’t help it” and sometimes I just have to blow off some steam and DANCE. I finally found a place that offers a night full of great music, a huge dancefloor, and laid back cool people where I can get my groove on. Funky Sole at The Echo offers a heaping dose of late ‘60s and ‘70s-era music every Saturday night. I recently met up with my gal pals, Fabby and Barni, and we claimed our corner of the dance floor to shimmy and undulate.

If you need a little inspiration on your footwork, the club projects old episodes of the TV show, “Soul Train” on the stage’s big screen. The crowd is friendly and gives you space to do your thang without bumping into you. There is a mix of styles there from casual Silver Lake scenesters to funkiphiles flashing some serious fashion sense to more edgy alt rockers.

For a sampling of the music played, check out the playlist on the club’s MySpace page.

I can’t think of a better way to shake off the rest of the world and just have a good time! Check out the pix:

Spin Out: Get Your Sunday Night Groove On!

Posted on December 21, 2012 by

Whenever I can get my groove on to get dressed up and hang with my pals, it’s a good night. Throw in some ‘60s soul and mod and it’s a great night. That’s why I like hanging at Spin Out. Taking place at Footsie’s once a month, it’s a low key bar, with a little dance floor, a pool table, a patio, some round booths and great DJs. Plus it’s an early evening, starting at 5 p.m. for us workin’ gals to still be able get their party on. And did I mention great music? The DJs spin goodl ol’ vinyl with awesome sounds from psychedelic to garage to soul and mod. It’s my kind of place! Check out the party pix:
