Brutus was as usual and charming affair in quaint silver lake—-haha hardly. Chris Bowen played house hits with Brutus Special Presentations playing a menagarie of curious and disturbing video clips [thats how we like it!] on the brick wall behind the living Tom of Finland model who slowlyyy removed his long-johns over and over all night.

477/ BEARS 2ND BIRTHDAY

2011_07_10
Bears, cubs, and otters, oh my! Two years and going strong! Sunday proved that summer is in full force with the anniversary afternoon lot party and beer bust of “Bears In Space” at Akbar. Guest DJ’s Bus Station John, Mike Trombley, and Scott Zacharias kept the afternoon blazin, with resident DJ’s Nitedog and Chris Bowen taking things into the night. No anniversary is complete without performances by Jackie Hell, Phyliss Navidad, Rahab, Honey Bee, and of course, Miss Barbie-Q. This is hands down the best way to spend a Sunday summer afternoon.
