Bootie SF | party

Want to get out of Fire City at the start of Santa Ana season (yes) and visit a place where you can dance past 2am, not get lurped on by the sexually deviant but still have a great, great time (because who doesn't like a wee bit o' lurping)? Drive or fly to the cities that host Bootie.

Please note: "Bootie," is not a reference to badonkadonk butt.

"Bootie" is basically a nickname for "kick-ass-bootleg-mash-up-party." And it's a celebreezy of epic musical proportions. Not quite legal but 100% fantastic fun. Get in before 10pm, and it's cheap fun at $6 entry in TownCity. The people may not be as pretty as a Hollywood hang, but the bouncers are considerably nicer, and the mood considerably more chill. Or is it "chiller"?

I was in NorCal over the weekend attending a great, great university's great, great homecoming, and in between the Alumni Club's open bar and me completely losing my voice, the friends and I made a petite trek to Town City to attend Bootie SF. Yes, it's another event worth extolling whose moniker bares the name of a previously nick-named city on my roster. And it happens bi-monthly at DNA Lounge on the club side of Town.

It was "French Revolution" at this Bootie party, meaning we had a cute DJ from the Bootie Paris clique. He spun cool tracks, featuring the following so artistically well:
1. Jay-Z (99 Problems) vs. Nena (99 Red Balloons)
2. "Phantom on the Bottom" - The Lady Tigra (Bass on the Bottom) vs. Justice (Phantom)
3. "Dance Dreams" - Lady Gaga (Just Dance) vs. Eurythmics (Sweet Dreams)
4. "Paper Rump" - Wreckx-N-Effect (Rumpshaker) vs M.I.A. (Paper Planes)
5. "Detox" - Amy Winehouse (Rehab) vs. Britney Spears (Toxic)

And through one part of the show, DJ Comar was joined by the accented rapping of a French gentleman known as Grandpamini, one of Paris' biggest bootie artists, who kept asking "Is it you want to make the noise?!" Who doesn't love that?

I found out with a little research that Bootie travels. Boston, Munich, Paris, NYC, LA. Never been to Munich...or NYC or Boston for that matter. Looks like now I've got a reason to wander! Why doesn't Southwest fly internationally?
