9th and U is a little sketchy, but the Velvet Lounge is alright.
Being a Lower East Side boy, who has also lived in Oakland and beautiful East Palo Alto, DC doesn't really scare me much.
Wish I could get a kitchen pass to go see some music tonight but it ain't gonna happen.
Woo Hoo, maybe I can do the lame bike night tomorrow @ Hooters in Manassas with the dudes from work
