Thursday Scion House Party

Frankly, I’m confused about this Scion House Party thing. I know they’re supposed to be the pulse of the U.S. underground dance movement, but this House Party is at Beauty Bar … oh, you mean House like the music? Gah, I’m such a music dummy. Is anyone else going to see Sublime cover band Badfish…

Networking 101

The Young Execs of Austin and Austin Recruiters Network Party Meet, mingle and network at Malaia. Despite the fact that I railed on Malaia on twitter this weekend for having a GLASS second floor, it IS pretty cool, so long as you’re wearing pants. Anyway, this party will have lots of meetin’-and-greetin’ and less dancing, so…

Austin Kidbits / Hill Country Ride Kick-Off Party

Thursday are perking back up after that nobody-does-anything-at-all lull over the holidays. Next week is going to be even bigger! Still, these two should keep you happy (houring). Hill Country Ride for Aids 10th Anniversary Kick-Off Party at La Zona Rosa. It’s for the Hill Country Ride for AIDS, a signature Austin event and the…

A little taste of absinthe

When Peche opened on Fourth in the old Malaga spot, I was excited to try some absinthe. Not because I have ever particularly cared about absinthe, but because who doesn’t want to try something entirely new? Right off, I loved the atmosphere. The wall behind the bar is library shelves of liquor with silver ladders…

Au40 Happy Hour

Au40 Nominations Roundup tonight at Paggi House, co-sponsored by Tribeza.

I will be attending a leadership planning meeting for the awesome upcoming…

Celebrate modern architecture, design, and art at the Michael Hsu-designed Guadalupe 5 at 502 West 55th Street. The event will also…

Yelp Open Party: Resolution Revolution

Man, I love yelp.com. Once again they’re hosting an open party with free drinks, food, and swag. Only this time the free drinks are Treaty Oak rum and some other vodka I’ve never heard of and FREE SUGAR MAMA’S CUPCAKES. I apologize for the screaming, but you know what Sugar Mama’s cupcakes do to me.…

Party favors include bevvies–Scotch and champagne–and a giveaway of any product in the store under $250, winner’s choice. Don’t miss it! 6-8pm, Kirk,…
