The Union Cattle

Who? Themos, Thodoris, Dimitri, Stayros, Costas
Where? Pasadena

There was boobular difference between this place and the Casa parties. The cattle can be ridden by anyone, but for some reason it moves a lot more agressively when guys ride it:-) Thodoris is now a regular there, and says that at fridays this palce is just awesome. It is usually crowded and it ahs quite loud music and lots of dancing. Thumbs up.

The Century Club

Who? Themos, Panos, Thodoris, Giota
Where? Century City

The Century Club hosts all kind of events, from Beauty Contests and fashions shows to casting calls and, of course, nightlife events. We went to this Chinese American event with various 18+ girls invlolved, and it was quite the event. We were among the few whites in the club, and I have never felt more tall in my life. I stepped into the dancing hall and I could every single head across the sea of heads in front of me. Two Gogo Goddesses (I don't have a clue what does the first word mean) were dancing for most of the time, but the dissaponting thing was that the prime time is only for about 1 hours, from 23:30-00:30 since before that people are still coming, and after that people start leaving (the show stops at 2am).
The best thing though was Stayro's sweet girl, a former student of his named Tracy that I was absolutely delighted to get to know. She was beautiful and smart and funny, and if Stayros makes out with her eventually I am going to treat him with the highest respect.

Viceroy

Who? Themos, Psounis, Birthday people
Where? Santa Monica

Viceroy is a hotel. However at the lobby a nice restaurant and bar is located, with outside pool and several tables and couches that can hold big parties without problems. People going there are in the upper 20s, including a very common sight of divorced women. The drinks were nice, and the birthday cake was accompanied with discussions on the nature of the stars, potential trips to Chicago and the upcoming 5x5 intramurals plans for next semester.

Dresden

Who? Adam, Wan, Steve, Andrew, Ben, Anna
Who? Themos, Fani, Julian, Dimitri
Where? Vermont+Hollywood Blvd

I won't lie. I went to this place because I saw it in Swingers, a nice movie about LA hanging out. The 2 performers there perform since 1982, and they also appeared in the movie. Dresden features excellent quality of service, Martinis and people. It was voted from Zagat as the #1 Lounge in LA in 2003. It is a slow music / Jazz lounge, with these guys playing from 9 to 1 every night. We went on a Monday, and were immediately struck. We met Marty and Elaine after they finished playing, along with a special guest star: a young chinese american girl with face like a flower and a voice like an angel... I haven't since a most beautiful and charismatic performer in my life. She said she'll be back next wednesday, so we will probably return too. Thumbs up!
