No Fun II, December 2006?

B: For some reason, we found ourselves out again on a Wednesday night with our good pal CB. Knowing that 80's night at the Hi-Dive is now less than fabulous, we planned ahead and decided on the Snake Pit, who advertised an Industry night on Wednesdays on their website, as follows:

HUMP

Service Industry Night

Hard Hittin' Base-Driven Beats

DJs Diabolic, Danny Marin Nevin& Francis Gold plus special guests

$2 U Call Its

NO COVER

A little after 10pm we were at the Snake Pit for hump night, and the Snake Pit was dark. Closed. Nothin doin. We walked down to Bender's, where only weeks before, we'd happened upon a very fun (and seemingly one-time) dance event. Tonight, there was a very loud, very non-dancey band playing, and we were forced to move on. But what to? Most dance clubs were dark on Wednesdays, and we didn't think to employ M's handy palm thing that gets internet everywhere. That might have been a good idea, because for lack of ideas, we headed back down to the Hi-Dive, in hopes that they used rotating DJs, and 80's night would be back to its rip-roaring place in the Denver scene.

As we stood at the bar listening to Journey and basically reliving the previous week's devastation (see No Fun), I took a vow to ALWAYS have a backup plan.

As of June 1, the Snake Pit still advertises Hump night on Wednesdays. Ug.
