Lipgloss 8th Anniversary Party – Friday,
June 26 – La Rumba – Denver – 9pm, FREE,
21+ The Chinese have believed
for some time that the number eight equals prosperity
and wealth.
While the weekly Friday night party, Lipgloss,
has not brought tremendous wealth and blinged-out mansions
to the hosts Tyler “Danger” Jacobson
and Michael Trindle, aka, Boyhollow in the
last 8 years, their efforts and continued tenacity in
bringing our community an indie-soul-brit-pop-electro-garage-rock
escape from the Lodo douchebag club scene (Beta being
the exception) weighs like gold here in Denver.
It’s hard to believe that it’s been eight
years since that night first came to be, when Anneliese
and I were at 60 South dancing to the “new”
Strokes song along with the classics like “Girls
& Boys,” “Lust for Life,” and
yes, “One More Chance” and “ABC.”
Through the years the night went through transformations
as most things do. They moved to the larger La Rumba
venue where they reside today, receiving accolades from
Westword readers, which were both a financial blessing
and a cultural curse as the “chasing cool”
Lodo lemmings lined up so they too could be hipsters.
