Party in the Maritimes

It’s a party-filled weekend in the Maritimes.

As mentioned in yesterday’s post, b*tchfest productions is hosting Homo for the Holidays at Michael’s Bar & Grill.

The Company House is holding its popular Retro party, with a bit of a festive holiday feel. Check out the Facebook event page for more info.

Down at Menz Bar, there will be a staff and friends party with live performances by Shayla Shenanigan and DJ Nick Nonsense. The party starts at 9:30.

Guerilla GayFare is hosting another one of their takeovers tonight, this time at the Hunt Club, on Spring Garden Rd. As usual, there is a dress code/theme, and this time it’s plaid/huntsman.

And there’s something in the air in Fredericton. Something feminine, something strong, something bombastic. Side Eye Events is putting its face on, or rather, another face. This weekend, the company is putting on one of its SHHHE! parties, this time with an Alter Egos theme. The event is this Friday at Boom! Nightclub in Fredericton.

And if you’re looking for a tune to wake you up to the weekend, might I suggest this one?

There’s nothing better than starting off a weekend with a little bit of synth.

Journalist, writer, blogger, producer.
