Friday nights are typically reserved for your release after a week of monotony. If you stop by 1230 Room Friday, your release will be lit on fire and blasted straight into the weekend. The downtown Olympia's award-winning resident disc jockey DJ Drastic celebrates his birthday by giving up some time for Atlanta's Shawty Slim to rock the 1s and 2s and host the gig. The 1230 Room boasts The O-town's sexiest venue with multiple stages and VIP sections and will now boast B.O.B.'s DJ as a guest performer. Of course B.O.B. - known for "Strange Clouds," "Airplane" and "Nothin' On You" has to have a crowd-rocking DJ - that's Shawty Slim.  As one of the Southeast's most respected party-rock DJs, Shawty Slim is known to play Southern classics, electro, house, hip-hop and more. If you're looking for a party with Dirty South flava and want something "different," the 1230 Room is the place to be Friday.

DJ DRASTIC'S BRITHDAY, w/Shawty Slim, 8 p.m., 21+, The 1230 Room, 111 Washington St., Olympia, 360.352.1230
