It’s Been Hot This Summer
We’ve had a hot summer at Red Star so far. Recently breaking a new record and having over 300 people come out to party with us. The Pride Party was great and DJ Dana Dub had us dancing all night. Ms Tory Marchella and Lexus Moore Envouge performed and a good time was had by all. We’ll be giving the drag shows a break for a while. It was something we were testing out. Leave us a comment about what your thoughts are.
Our August party is already upon us. Since we just had a big party 2 weeks ago we’re expecting smaller than usual crowds – meaning over 100 instead of over 200. We’ll be trying out using iTunes DJ to allow you to request songs from your iPhone (or a friends). We’ll also have some DJ’s on hand to jump in.
Labor Day weekend kicks off with the White Party. Last year’s party was a surprise hit. So we’re bringing it back bigger and better.
We’ll be selling out t-shirt and donating a portion to AIDS Walk Kitsap which is on Saturday, September 18th. Plan to walk. Maybe we’ll have an after party!
March Madness
Thanks to all of you who came out to celebrate our third anniversary with us in February! We had a great crowd right up to 2am when we had to kick so many of you out. We kicked it old school to wrap up the night and had a nice late night full dance floor. There was even cake!
This month DJ Matt Stands returns to Red Star for March Madness! He’ll be spinning some mad beats to get you movin’ and groovin’. We are expecting a couple of R Place’s Lashes Show Queens to pay us a visit along with some Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
Come out for a mad night on Friday, March 5th. Doors open at 9pm. This event is 21 and over. Cover is $5 at the door. Drinks are really reasonably priced. The bar is cash only. There is a typical bar ATM downstairs and a Chase ATM located on the same block.
Enter the Eagles upstairs at 205 6th street. If you drive, there is plenty of parking available in the area. Most of it is free and the word on the street is that the nearby pay-lots are not checked that late. The lot next to the Eagles on Washington is reserved for their members – the good people who allow us to turn their hall in to a big gay bar.
Our events are usually held on the First Friday of each month which coincides with the Downtown Bremerton Art Walk. Come on down and check out the galleries all just a short walk from the party. There are some great places to catch a bite to eat. The Eagles have a great steak dinner on our nights so come early and eat downstairs.
Make it a weekend and get a room at the Hampton Inn & Suites. It is located next to the ferry terminal on the waterfront only blocks from the party. They support Red Star by giving us great deals to put up our out of town disc jockeys.
Don’t forget to check out Seattle Gay Scene for – an awesome one-stop source for area nightlife.
Show Some Love – We’re 3!
We are off to a great start for 2010! Our New Year’s Eve party was a hit with 100 people coming out to ring in the new year and say goodbye to 2009. We had some great food, chocolates, champagne, music and fun! Thanks again to ABDEL for lending his photography skills. If you haven’t got your pictures send an e-mail to michael[at]redstarevents.com.
Red Star is three years old. We can hardly believe it. From our early days on Callow at the old G-style Knights with 80 to our nights at the Eagles with numbers over 200, Seattle DJ Matt Stands, our new lounge area and more. We have given several thousand dollars back to the community, given people a local place to party and continue to improve the experience. We have enlisted the help of a bunch of great volunteers to help us put it together and take it down each month. We were beginning to feel some burn out and everyone’s help has really injected new life and excitement into Red Star. In 2010, we hope to do even more bar take overs between our regular parties.
We’d like you to join us as we celebrate on Friday, February 12, 2010. This is the second Friday of the month. There were several scheduling issues that caused the move. We’ll pick back up on first Fridays next month. Last year’s Birthday Bash was one of our biggest nights. It’s the Friday before Valentine’s Day – so we’ll plan a red hot Red Star and there will be cake! We hope you will all come with your friends and show us the love.
