HEIST.CAPITAL PRIDE.EQUALITY: The ___ Party

Posted by dcpartylife in Featured

Beginning Wednesday June 5, 2013 HEIST DC presents it’s weekly gay friendly party. The
inaugural party will be in celebration of DC Capital Pride. Celebrating its 17th year, Capital Pride
is a week when members of the LGBT and straight communities rally together to show their
support for equal rights for all.

Kicking off festivities will be acclaimed DJ Keenan Orr, a native of the Washington Metropolitan
Area. Metro Weekly boasts Orr as, “one of DC’s most versatile DJ’s” as he spins parties for both
gay and straight venues. Orr also promises, “the weekly party will feature special guests DJ’s,
so prepare for the unexpected”.

HEIST DC will open its doors at 10pm with an open bar until 11, and will offer a special toast at
midnight to celebrate Capital Pride.

New Lounge: KABIN

Posted by dcpartylife in Featured

KABIN

Anyone who’s been in the Washington DC area for over five years has to remember Steve’s Bar Room, one of my favorite nightspots/lounges in the city. The space is re-opening and will be called “KABIN” and will be located at 1337 Connecticut Avenue NW.

Kabin has been callled a “discotheque meets après-ski chalet” and comes from Nightlife Group’s NLA Group owners Kunal Shah, Vinoda Basnayake, Dustin Huynh, and Rajeev Subramanian.

Kabin, which is above The Gryphon, aims to replicate the feel of an Aspen ski lodge with charcoal-finished walls, tanned-leather banquettes, polished brass and bronze mirrors, herringbone floors, and an infinity fire box in the center of the room. A mirrored prism ceiling that refracts light is meant to create an abstracted mountain view, and VIP nooks made of stone and glass overlook the room.
