4th of July Kick-Off feat. Dwele at Sisu

Best known for his smooth crooning over Neo-Soul tracks, Dwele is one of those rare gems in music.  Whether its singing on the mic or playing the instruments on one of the six albums he's released over the last 13 years, he's maintained a musical consistency that keeps him in the forefront and helps him maintain a loyal fan base.  It's that same consistency that allows him to push himself even further and allow himself to evolve as an artist.  That evolution has now taken him behind the 1's and 2's as a DJ and he's bringing it to Dallas courtesy of The City Influencer.  Just in time to help us kick things off for the 4th of July weekend he'll be spinning at SISU in Uptown 07/02 for a night that sure to be sexy for the summer.  Get your tickets HERE and use promotional code "INTRANSIT"  for a discount on your tickets.  You don't want to be the one who has to hear about it the day after.  Don't miss out!

The Catalina Wine Mixer

 

 

If anyone has ever heard of "The Catalina Wine Mixer" you're probably thinking of one of two things.  You're either thinking of one of this blogger's favorite Will Ferrell movies "Step Brothers" or you just happen to reside in the DFW area and you're thinking of one of the better social occasions in this city.  I always think of it as the "Haley's Comet" of parties here.  You never know exactly when it's going to happen but when it does it is always special. It's one of the few events that takes you out of the typical hangout spots i.e. Uptown, Downtown, Deep Ellum etc.  Times Ten Cellars in Lakewood plays host and sets the backdrop to a scene that can only be described as fun and sexy.

 

When you mix music, wine, and good looking people it's hard not to have a good time.  The only thing that could possibly make this event any better is if Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly showed up themselves in their all white suits to reprise their roles as "Huff and Doback" and perform their rendition of "Boats and Hoes" while we all look on and raise our glasses of Sauvignon Blanc and yell "It's the F@#$ing Catalina Wine Mixer!!!".  So if you've never been, do yourself a favor and make every effort to be a part of this experience.  As for everyone else who knows what it is...see you there!
