Where to go Kick it with Kung Fu Kev for Labor Day Weekend

Me and Ren @Ecco for A. Caldwell

Welcome back ya'll

Happy weekend of celebrations and Kickin' it with Kung Fu Kev

Labor Day is a day set aside to celebrate the economic and social achievements of workers throughout the year. If you have had a good year of working, this would be the designated day for toasting those accomplishments. If you do not fall into this category; i.e., if you did not have a good year of working (and many of us did not) - I still grant you, by the power vested in me, the ability to designate this day for celebrating. Hell, I'm going to grant you all weekend long for celebrating and throw in Monday as well, for a spot of recovery (As if you needed an excuse to get down this weekend!).

Anyway, while I'm granting such privileges, I might as well grant the privileges of telling you some hot spots to go this weekend.


Saturday Night:

Sunday Day:

And then Monday Day:

That should keep you all busy for awhile. Now remember, this weekend is only supposed to be for those who experienced a year of work worth celebrating about. For the rest of you, the only reason you are allowed to participate in this year's festivities, is due to my kindness and generousity. So, take advantage! 'Cause I may not be feeling this good next year -

4th of July Style.....

And, in case you forgot:

Kung Fu Kev reminds you during your Independence Day celebrations:

So, I feel that it goes without saying that this is a great time of year.... bar-b-ques are firing up all over the place, bikini's are in full effect, and drinks, along with sun tan lotion, are in constant need of replenishment.

The Week That Was
I was in need of some replenishment myself, until I saw Lee Burridge, Edward Castillo, Jimmy Maheras, along with surprise guests James Zabiela and Sasha perform at Avalon last Saturday.  

This 4th of July will be the Hottest Day in L.A.'s Nightlife

That's right, AlterEgo Events and Clive Henry will be dishing out bar-b-que, beats, and good times with the sunshine on the 4th of July!

The Week That Was 

Last week was a 'hurry, hurry, hurry; just to wait, wait, wait' week for me, personally. This prevailing theme set the tone for me to miss one of the most anticipated events of the year, Timo Maas at Ecco Lounge in Hollywood. Of course, he was on the slate for last Saturday night. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I missed this one; and I have already strained my hamstring from repeatedly kicking myself. So, as far as The Week That Was, I've got nothin' for you...... not even an update as to how good the show was.

TIMO MAAS @ ECCO

M.A.N.D.Y. at Vanguard Friday 5.21.10: M.A.N.D.Y.land, not Candyland!

Friday, March 21st

Free Before 11pm with RSVP
Open Vodka bar from 10:00pm-10:30pm

With an ear for the tunes and an innate understanding of what works on the dancefloor M.A.N.D.Y. are on a seemingly never-ending circuit of the globe with their in-demand DJ sets. From their first meeting as 15-year-olds on a tennis court, the 2 young men who dreamed of making a career of music, parties and having fun have come a long way, and are now well & truly at the top of their game. 

2008 was the penultimate year for M.A.N.D.Y.  culminating in 2 of their most memorable DJ sessions: one at the helm of UK club Fabric’s esteemed mix CD series, and the other at the rain-drenched Love Parade in Germany, where they played live for 500,000 music lovers who refused to run for cover from the wet and continued dancing in the streets for the awestruck M.A.N.D.Y. boys. 

alterEgo Events Goes Back to Work,The Fun Begins Here (Nightlife)

Kickin' it 

with 

Kung Fu Kev...

back to work

First of all, thanks to all my people for their support with the new promotion work I'm doing and the years of support with my kung fu. I would also like to send out a special 'thanks' to all my friends who helped me celebrate my birthday this year; one way or another. Here's how the alterEgo Events crew helped me tear it up on the last adventure of my 2010 birthday fun:

Well, well.... the boys here at alterEgo Events took some time off a couple of weeks age to help me celebrate my birthday. We each packed a small bag, grabbed our sun screen, and donned our sombreros for a long weekend of fun..... Tijuana was chosen as the exotic destination for our debauchery. Technically, we were headed south of the border just after my birthday; but once we arrived, I realized it was all right on time.

alterEgo Events, meet Las Vegas; Vegas, alterEgo (Nightlife)

That's right; I know many of you have heard the whispers, and now they have grown to shouts of jubilation; alterEgo Events is starting a monthly party at Tao Beach (Venetian Hotel) in Las Vegas on May 16th. As the alterEgo Events newsletter reported: (Link)

On Sunday, May 16th, grab your pitchfork & horns and meet me in Las Vegas as The Beatport Beach Party at Tao Beach (The Venetian Hotel) takes shape with Manufactured Superstars. 

 Here are the visuals:

Are you ready to let your alterEgo shine through in Vegas?

King Britt hits Hollywood this Thursday at Libertine on Sunset (5/13) (Nightlife)

First known for his dj role in the ground-breaking, Grammy award-winning, hip-hop troupe, Digable Planets, this pioneer comes through town offering a different taste to his musical palette: his electronic blending skills. Over his 20 years in the business, he has amassed countless 'micro-sounds' (little blurbs of sound from recordings) and somehow blended them together. This Thursday night, he is blending them togther for your dancing and listening enjoyment.

 Notice the event flyer:

We will have more to come about this FREE show soon.
That's right, I said FREE! So drink up!

The Week That Was

The Week That Was ~ The Week Ahead (Nightlife)

THE WEEK THAT WAS (April 19-25) Kickin' it with Kung Fu Kev

 This week was slow for me, as I save energy, money, and ideas for the upcoming week, my birthday week. Also, I was helping a friend remodel her condo, and that took much of my gusto for going out. You can see pics of that by clicking  kung fu carpentry. I attended King King on Friday for Behrouz and DJ Kam and I got to see just how funky the famed DJ can get (I missed DJ Kam as I was fashionable late). Behrouz broke it down, mixing in some far reaching new songs with some of the popular current tracks via a well-conceived, intelligent mix that put me in an all-night dance marathon.
