Holiday Parties AboundHoliday Parties Abound
Getting all flustered 'cuz over your packed holiday party schedule? Me neither.
However, there are some interesting events happening, music-wise. Or at least, bound to be :) I'll be updating this list as I hear about more shows and parties. Feel free to comment about anything that I might not know!
Thursday, Dec. 4: Rococo Rendezvous, presented by Zippercut. I first met the adorable ladies of Zippercut (edgy lifestyle/culture/fashion bloggers and event planners) at a "Lolita Tea Party" a few months back. Now, don't get your gym shorts in a twist--"Lolita" refers to a subculture fashion movement whose focus is thoroughly anti-sexy, though awfully cute. (Chicks doing it for themselves, not just to pull some guy. I like.) Well, the girls are throwing a Renaissance-like party complete with bands who, I hear, will get all Lolita-ed up themselves. Even the guys! Performing are indie rockers Go West Young Man, alternative pop act boxViolet, and indie rockers The Hanks. 7 p.m.-midnight, Royal/T, Los Angeles.
Saturday, Dec. 6, free concert by Ludacris and Soulja Boy: Fans of the aforementioned hiphop artists, memorize this number: 66937. That’s the short code to which you need to send the keyword ATTLUDA. When you do so, you’ll get a mobile ticket letting two people into a free concert that Ludacris and Soulja Boy Tell'em are putting on! It’s all part of AT&T’s “‘Unofficial’ 2008 SEC Football Championship Afterparty.” Even those not in the ATL can still text-in so that they can view exclusive concert footage when it becomes available. I’m guessing video viewership is also a consolation prize for those left out in the cold. Tickets will be delivered via SMS by Wednesday; the first 1000 fans in line Saturday will get into the show. 8 p.m. Saturday, the Tabernacle, Atlanta
