Your girl was at Skateboard Fresh at Cafe Asia (1720 Eye Street NW) last Saturday (1.5.08). Honestly, it was the most fun I've had at Cafe Asia in a long time...the party before the Thanksgiving holiday was lacking. Still, somehow DT pulled it together to throw a party for professional skateboarder, Stevie Williams and DGK (stands for Dirty Ghetto Kids)

But if you eventually made it inside, you heard one of the best DJ sets by the sounds of DJ Alizay (he actually has a blog, click here to read!)
(Photo: DJ Alizay on the 1's and 2's...he was on point!)Stevie and members of the DGK skate team were parlayin' up in VIP, poppin' bottles of Moet Rose and getting attacked by the camera guy. Looked like they were havin' fun.
