MUST ATTEND EVENT: Dear Summer

Now I know y'all are familiar with this one. (For one, I've blogged about them before)

Hailing from the University of Maryland, College Park campus, FlyBoy Radio has been providing not only the campus, but a preeetttyyy good amount of the DMV with some live parties.

 




Their venue of choice is
Coco Cabana
2031 University Boulevard
Hyattsville, MD 20783

I showed up to their last party #ohyoufancyhuh? and had a ball. For anybody who had to stay in the area for summer school or work, they've definitely kept it poppin' for them.

At this point we've only got one more full week until school starts and FlyBoy Radio wants to end the summer right with DEAR SUMMER.












THIS THURSDAY -- 8.19.10
Ladies FREE before 11:30p & $10 after
Fellas FREE  before 10:30p

Check owt their promo video:


Follow the crew @Flyboyradio
Tune in to WMUC on Sundays 3pm-6pm to hear what they talkn' bout. Or listen to their podcast.
Call 301- 314-8800 for special song requests

Sonic coming to the DC & MD?

When I was younger, I always wanted to work at a Sonic.
I don't think I really ever liked their food but it was just something about how they rolled around in those skates that made me want to be a part of the Sonic team! lls!

Although they show so many commercials in the Maryland and DC areas, with the skates, smiles, food platters and all ... there is not one Sonic in the area! Well today I saw a "PSA" on twitter saying there was one finally coming! I dug around to see if I could find more about the rumor.

Apparently, there's one already open for business (10am-10pm) in Baltimore:

8212 Liberty Road
Baltimore, MD, 21244 -- at the intersection of  Rolling Road.

I don't know anything about B-more, but if you want more info you can go to the Sonic of Baltimore Facebook fan page.


Last year there were a few discussions about more of them in the area but it looks like things have died down a bit.

So yeah... want Sonic real bad? Go to Bmore.

& those are my 6cents.

Meet & Greet: That's Patchwork

So ya'll have seen me sport a bowtie or two...

But clearly I didn't know bowties until I saw www.thatspatchwork.com


Meet the master mind behind it all: Xavier Underwood bka Ari Piven. The boy has skills -- he hand crafts all his creations.

Where'd That's Patchwork come from? A note from his website:

"After years of wearing bow ties, Mr. Underwood wanted to bring the traditional spin on life and spice it up a bit with a fresh new image. Patch Work’s bow ties embody trend, color and confidence. The ties in our collection are made from the finest fabrics as they are a perfect fit, from day to night, city to the suburbs."


We've been playing tag -- but I can't wait til I get a chance to wear patchwork product!
