For Saturday night I’d like to shout out a party that I’ve been greatly enjoying. The proper alchemy of time, place, crowd, music and attire that makes for an unabashed party without venturing into the realm of either ball-scratching meatheads and Ginos on the one hand or nitpicky hipsterdom on the other is a difficult thing to achieve. The Tempest Lounge, however, has been making an exemplary effort to bring a solid, reliable, cool, fun, unpretentious night back to Hilltop for girls who like girls, boys who like boys and everyone in between. Check out “Temptation” Saturday night with resident DJ LA Kendall with DJ Broam and MC Adraboo in the house.
