Recap: Summer Celebration | Z Square

I rolled into Z Square (14 JFK St, Harvard Square, Cambridge) around 11:30 - solo. My usual crew was outta town, my friend canceled on me at the last minute but I was like you know what - I'm going to dare to be different tonight - I am not going to spend one more wasted night watching Lifetime and Fresh Prince re-runs until 3 a.m....I'm flying solo.

To anyone who ever wants to attempt this here are some tips:

1) You are not allowed under any circumstances to "phone home", text or play video games on your cell phone. The point of flying solo is to mix and mingle on your own. Be in the moment. Leave the celly alone.

2) Be visible. Don't hide yourself in the crowd making people think you aren't by yourself. Find a prime spot where you will be seen, you want people to know you are by yourself and are comfortable with it.

3) Be social. The cool thing about not hanging out with a crew is that you can talk to people maybe you've seen before but didn't have the chance to say hey to because your girl who was driving had to go RIGHT NOW...or you're taking care of one of your girls who had one too many. This is your time to shine. Go for it!

Back to the recap:

When I got there, the party had already started. People were having a good ol' time at the bar, getting drinks and snacking on mini burgers and chicken skewers (Um - can we get sumtin' for the vegetarians!!) People were grubbin' tho...I even caught the servers snackin'.

At the bar I asked for the drink special of K. Pritty/ J. Francois. I thought they were two separate drinks, but it was just one...The bartender told me what was in it, but all I could remember was that it had Hennessey and cost $12 (He reminded me like 4x that it was $12 *sigh... I almost put a $20 in front of him and told him keep the change but we're in a recession. LOL). It was ai-ight, probably wouldn't order another one but y'all know I don't do dark liquor.

(Photo by K. Pritty: How do I know these cats!?)

I do have to say something about the bartender on the left hand side of the bar (I saw y'all heading to that side...good reading) , though he does make a good drink and can keep it straight much more than the other bartenders, I was so annoyed when his free loading friends came up to the bar when the line was already crazy!! And he didn't make them a rum and coke, he made a serious, brown-sugar-round-the-rim kinda drink. I'm like dude...really tho? I'm fine with takin' care of your partnas and all but can't you pre-make that stuff? Or at least be slick with it...

The overall vibe of the party had a different flava. It seemed like all the neighborhoods came together - from Dorchester to Cambridge, which was pretty cool. DJ Select did a good job of mixin' old skool, reggae and some new school, but kept it real 90's. He did throw in a couple of new songs which brought the crowd to a dead hault but I gotta give him props for tryin'.

(Photo by K. Pritty: DJ Select keepin' it hot...literally!)

The only major faux pas was when 20 minutes before the end of the night his equipment blew! AGAIN with the equipment issues...is there a shortage of electronic stores in Boston or something? My entrepreneurs pah-lease get on this!!!.... Fortunately he got it back on in a few moments but people were quite agitated.

(Photo by K. Pritty: Happy Patrons straight glistening)

Speaking of agitation, it was a friggin' hot box in there!! And I can't even blame it on the air-conditioning because it was on. There were just so many dag gone people sweating and twirkin' that there was no escape! To me this signifies a good party but Bostonians are not used to partying under these grave conditions.

A word of advice: It's summer...an extra layer of deodorant, perfume, cocoa butter and/or baby powder IS needed. My advice to the ladies of the Perm and Press and Yaki nations, pull it back, or if ya gots to, purchase a nice synthetic wig :) And don't over do the make-up...by the end of the night most of it will be melted into a bar napkin.

If all else fails...embrace the beauty within :)

In the end Boston's Promo Kings showed us a good ol' (sweaty) time. I give this party an B+.

*Big ups to Boston Fab! fans Era, Shanita, Kafui and friends for letting me hang with y'all. Also showin' much fab! luv to Mr. Von Diddles and to Edgar of So Good Entertainment who were also in the building.

(Photo by K. Pritty: Me on my way out...still looking fab!)

Looks like I'll be flying solo a lot this summer - who knows? Your crew may be the next one I crash! :)

Stay Fab! :)

Recap: Saturday Night Fever | Z Square

It was a Fab! Family affair as DC Fab!, Erika, Fab! CFO and Boston Fab! Correspondent A-Marie and I headed out to Z-Square for So Good Entertainment's, Saturday Night Fever. (I also heard it was co-sponsored by Jammin' 95.5).

We showed up around 11:30 PM to find that the crowd was decent but not packed. The music was smooth R&B being piped through the system and the bar was busy. You saw people coming back with two or more drinks saying, "I am NOT going back there." They really got to come up with a better system at the bar, it's so ridiculous.

I was just about to nod off when DJ On and On finally got on the tables around 12:30 a.m. I gotta take a moment to talk about the role of a DJ, because I don't quite think that Boston really gets it. The role of the DJ is to get the party hype; to get people dancing. It is not your job to identify how many single ladies are in the room, it is not your job to find out who has money in their pocket; you are not there to try out your new music (music you created on your PC), or practice your scratching skills, nor is it your purpose to play only music YOU like and ignore the rest of us who actually paid to be there. Your role, once again is to get us dancing. Don't put it on the bartenders to get us drunk enough to get with your vibe. Be good enough so we do it on our own. Thanks.

Having said that, DJ On-and-On did an okay job. He played a nice mix of Top 40, Reggae and he threw in some oldies as well.

(Photo: Boston Fab! Correspondent A-Marie, Boston Fab!, Fab! CFO Erika and DC Fab!)

The crowd...wow...I already felt the difference of the students being gone. It had a very local feel, which was not a bad thing. It's good to see people from the neighborhood enjoying themselves. There was a huge mix...from YBP's to hood-eriffic, to pimp daddys, to youngin's, and the ratio of men to women was good as well. So, if you were lookin' for a lil' bit of everything, some multi-culture in your own culture then you certainly got it.

Here's an example: picture a linebacker type dude, tall about 6 '2, in his mid-thirties to early 40's sippin...yes...sippin...on a cosmopolitan. I mean hey, I like cosmos so I can see how a guy can like a little cranberry in his life but I mean dude...can you at least ask the bartender to put it in a regular glass? Big hands...little glass...there is something wrong with that. It just is not fab...under any circumstance.

(Photo: The crowd gettin' it...)

Another difference from the Z Square norm was that the people were dancing. I saw guys gettin' hype with no intervention from the ladies. I saw ladies grabbin' dudes, it was just crazy fun and they were dancin' y'all. They were gettin' it!

So Good Entertainment did a good job of getting people in the door and it looked like most people enjoyed themselves. Edgar was on his game for real, running around, schmoozing with the crowd, etc.

 I give this party a C+/B-

Recap: Classic Friday’s at Z-Square

So after several weeks of numerous texts, e-mails and phone calls from So Good Entertainment asking us to PLEASE come back! Fab! CFO Erika and I headed out to Classic Fridays (Previously called Off the Wall Fridays) at Z Square (14 JFK St, Cambridge).  I have to admit I was a bit skeptical since we had gone to Classic Fridays several months ago at another location and it was... well – wack, but everyone deserves a second chance, right?

We showed up early enough that entrance to the party was free, although the flyer advertised that it was $10. The promoter, Edgar was also supposed to be passing out free shots, but with all the running around he was doing that never materialized. Did I mention that I hate false advertising?!

There was a pretty decent young crowd (the average age was around 22) though they might as well be called Harvard Friday’s as ninety percent of the patrons were Harvard affiliated. The vibe was very chill, almost too chill. I felt kind of awkward...almost like I was at a cocktail party and should of brought a date. Everyone seemed to know one another and if they didn’t they weren’t really open to meeting anyone new. Still, this was the first time in a long time that I showed up to any place in jeans, a cardigan with my glasses on and still had a decent time dancing and socializing. Big ups to the “Men with Jobs” who got our drinks for the night. One time for Cordell!!

DJ Eight-Two did his thing and played mostly reggae. The unfortunate thing is that he has the tendency to cut songs off right as they were getting good (boo!). To sum it up, there was a lot of standing around and drinking, and not very much dancing.

I would recommend this place as a Friday night alternative when you just want to come as you are and have a drink with friends – though you might need to bring your own.

Stay Fab! :)
