The Avenue is getting renovated...

Word on the street is that The Avenue (649 New York Ave NW) was shut down due to gawd knows what and has been purchased by H20 and Zanzibar owner Abdul Khanu. He's currently renovating it... I just hope he can maintain it better than he did that death trap called H20! : ) Speaking of which, the death trap was closed down a week after my post about the stabbing/other nonsense going on...read here if you're lost! :)

Raheem DeVaughn @ K Street | Grand Opening of Play Lounge | Eva Pigford @ the Avenue

Raheem DeVaughn has been busy around the District promoting his upcoming album Love Behind the Melody, which hits stores tomorrow (1.15.08). Raheem starts touring soon, although he won't end up in DC until around March at Constitution Hall on Tuesday, 3.11.08 through Saturday, 3.15 .08. Mark your calendars.

But if you can't wait that long to hear his new soulful sounds, go to K Street Lounge (1301 K Street NW) tomorrow night for his album release party thrown by Mad Power Unit. Open bar from 6-8 and again from 10-11. Ladies in free before 11. Can't beat it!

Dave & Ray along with Ra-Ra & Scotty have ditched Steve's Bar Room and are now throwing parties at Play Lounge (1219 CT Ave. NW). Perhaps the switch because Steve's Bar Room never got packedddd...ever.

It seems like a nicer venue anyway (I hear they have a stripper pole). Inside Play you'll find couches and great lounge areas that require a $500 minimummmm (ballinnnn!). Sounds by DC's "The Original" DJ Quicksilver (not to be confused with DJ Quic that we always hear on the radio) and it's the GRAND OPENING so go see for yourself!!!!

Oh yea, congrats to a successful party at Olives last Saturday!!!!

Still, the third floor is quite nice, so meet Joc in the club (it's goin' downnnn).....yea that was corny, but I had to.
