It's Friday, and I'm feeling like I need to add a few more vintage gems to my closet. If you're on that same type of time, you're in luck, because I put together a vintage guide to the city. You'll probably find me wandering around one of these spots this weekend.

Anyways... free tickets, shall we?

I've got a pair of tickets to Where To Find Us: Pool Party at Grinders on July 25th. Think BYO pool, queer singles, water guns, and probably some chaos, because I’ll be on the mic. Enter, and don’t forget to bring your water clothes.
