I was so excited when I turned 21 and could get in the clubs without waiting on someone to come to the door and say it was OK to let me in for one reason or another.
I’ve been making my way into the clubs before I was legal, thanks to my passion — writing — which takes me to venues to conduct interviews and cover concerts.
Now, I feel like I’m about to have a flashback in the next couple of weekends in my attempts to hang out with the “extra grown and sexy.” (Yes, that’s my new term for it. !Is that politically correct?)
I’ve had to make a special request to get into the Class Reunion Party Nov. 7 at Cloud 9. Hosted by DJ JF “the Legend,” it’s a party for those who graduated from 1987 to 1997. I was not even thinking about high school when some of the people who will attend this party were graduating! In fact, I had just been born when the first class got to its senior year.
I heard that Jason — the Appleman — will be selling his amazing candy-covered apples in the club. This is a special treat for the extra grown and sexy.
On Nov. 13, there’s an exclusive 30-and-older matinee going on at 300 East, from 4 to 9 p.m. I’m tired of all of this youngster player hating going on. Especially when the promoter of the party, Young Gold E. Patron, isn’t even 30 himself! I respect his hustle though, and he said I can come hang out, so I really can’t be mad.
I guess for now, I should be happy to be getting carded again. By the time I am actually the age of these older folks, you will probably catch me at Cougar Night at Bently’s!
