Kid Dangerous is staging a summit of hip for its launch party tonight. Seriously, I have no idea what to wear, and if I could chop myself an ironic mullet on the car ride there, I'd probably be in better shape.

For $12 at King King, filthy/trendy revelers will enjoy a fashion show of Kid Dangerous' "grime couture", a line of ultra distressed fabrics and designs by underground artist and Ice Cream Man photographer Jeremiah Garcia. The truly motivated alcoholics can gorge on free vodka from 9-10, and performances by The Grey Kid and Ultraviolet butt up against sets by Mr Franki Chan himself.

And if you feel photogenic enough, get yourself a shiny new profile picture with the charming Rony at his photobooth. If I hit the free hooch,  I may just get hammy for it myself. And if I get deep into the sauce, maybe I'll chop that mullet, peeps.  

Everyone loves to see women in miniskirts brawl on wheels. Right? Not City Council.

My Derby Dolls info source, the cryptically named Judy Gloom, just delivered the infuriating news that due to event permit hassles with The Man, the space they usually bruise each other in will be off-limits. They were supposed to skate back onto the scene July 21st, to the delight of their rabid fan base, but word just got out that their season is postponed until they can find a new venue.

We're pouting until further notice.
