The October USDB was by far the best one ever!!! Complete with dance-offs in dance circles, bollywood style lip syncing/ acting / dancing. Basically, people were having a great time!!! let’s keep the party going strong this month!!

We have decided to have the party on the first Fridays of every month, but as i say that, we might be skipping December due to the holiday season and travel plans for the DJs, We’ll keep you posted for that. It just means that you should definitely make it out to this one, as it could be the last one of the year.

DJ REKHA ROCKED IT AT BLACK CAT YET AGAIN!!!  she is so inspiring, so i can’t wait to spin this month.  this month we are supporting SALTAF, the South Asian Literary & Theatrical Arts Festival…  and their member, Renu, will be teaching a bhangra dancing class beforehand at 9:15, so come early.

Bossa is complicating my life, but the party goes on!!!

So this month we are benefiting Radio CPR, As we found out last time, Bossa collect $5 at the door, and gives us a little bit of it, but they take most of it. Once you get in come upstairs, where RadioCPR will have a table with t-shirts for sale and other cool stuff, and they will be asking for a $3 donation at the top of the stairs.

Thanks a lot for understanding, I am trying to keep this party benefiting a charity or organization that helps make the world a better place, all the while, having a fun positive dance party with beautiful smiles everywhere.

“Radio CPR 97.5fm is a community-based radio station broadcasting in Mt Pleasant, Columbia Heights, and surrounding neighborhoods of DC. The station seeks to provide an outlet for the voices, stories, music and opinions that so often get excluded from mainstream forums of communication.
