Denver's snazziest new bar is hosting the Official Semi Precious Weapons After-Party!

Semi Precious Weapons will head down to the Beauty Bar after opening for Lady Gaga's The Monster Ball at Pepsi Center to play a special DJ set for their fans. Expect them to throw down a set that reflects their brand of Filthy Glamour and let's keep the party going until they kick us out!

Lady Gaga herself was a go-go dancer at Beauty Bar back in 2007 before she catapulted to fame with her glam-shock-dance music, so keep your eye out to see if she'll be giving us a shake for old time's sake!

Opening will be Denver's own boyhollow, co-founder and resident DJ of Lipgloss, Denver's longest running indie/electro/rock party.

This night promises to be a non-stop glam-jam. Don't miss it!

As always, no cover & cheap drinks for everyone.

WHAT is Lugnasadh, you might ask?

Typically observed at end of July/beginning of August, the Irish sun-god Lugh's step-mother & Queen of the Fir Bolg, Tailtiu, is commemorated for her heroic deed of clearing and re-claiming a meadowland for planting, with the help of her axe. She died of exhaustion from this and told the people to hold funeral games and other harvest-celebratory rituals during this time. (and more where that came from!)

Come dress your very celtic-best!!! be creative!

"I just got an email from the gallery coordinator at my school who is letting us put on our RGB V. CMYK show. She's all pissed that I marketed our show outside of RMCAD without her permission, and sent me the link to your post on X Rocks The spot. I can't tell you how stoked I am that you went ahead and promoted our show for us. It really means a lot. But for some ridiculous reason, I have to tell you to remove the post. I'm furious. But i guess them's the rules.. So if you could take it down for her sake, i'd appreciate it. Thanks again though."

This was just sent to me from Kyle. He is showing some of his work at the Phillip J. Steele Gallery at RMCAD this coming Friday through Monday. The image above is a stack of printed fliers that he's using to promote his show. (Which is okay I'm guessing.) But for some reason when I (a friend of Kyle's) posted something promoting his show on this blog (RGB) the gallery coordinator freaked out! I assure you Ms/Mrs. Gallery coordinator that Kyle didn't come to me asking to post something about his show. I posted the show because I find it interesting and think that the greater population of readers might enjoy attending the show.

Any way, Kyle has mad skills and you should go check out his show at RMCAD this weekend. And if you see the gallery coordinator tell her that xrocksthespot™ sent you.
