We're pathologically social. We're professional leisurists. We're burrito lovers, bar flies, art whores and music nerds. We dish the good dirt, and we'll risk a parking ticket for a cheap sample sale. Sometimes, we blog drunk.

Santa Monica Boulevard shuffle



 

Looks like Seven's minutes in heaven are up. After about a year of trying to make it work in an awkward WeHo location across the street from a 7-Eleven, the venue's shutting down. But not for long. The venue will respawn—any excuse to use a Halo term!—into Gold Bar with current owner Noah Silverman still at the helm, reports the LA Times. Promoter Jamie Barren says he may come on as venue's marketing man as he did with Libertine. Meanwhile, there's another bar on Santa Monica Boulevard about five minutes away that's getting a major overhaul. Details are still on the DL since contracts are still being signed, but I can tell you it's where Paris Hilton celebrated her 25th birthday party by dancing on tables as Frankie Muniz, who she'd arrived with, stared on in disbelief. We imagine Steve Aoki fans will dig this place.
