Event Alerts: Poetic Thursday & Sassy Saturday

Most people first met me when I started e-mailing weekly events to everyone. (To get on my list ... e-mail shreveportevents@hotmail.com)


And I started that because people often say (including myself) that there is nothing to do in Shreveport.

So when something comes along that's different from the normal "club night" and gives those of us who don't normally go out a chance to be entertained ... I'm all over it ...


SO .. for all you creative types .. like myself ... there are actually 3 open mic/poetry nights going on here in Shreveport.


On Tuesdays, there is a Poetry night at the Full Moon Bistreaux (check the side panel for more information) ... but it should be on pause for the next couple of weeks will the club is under minor construction.


TONIGHT (and every Thursday night), Nspired Promotions is hosting their Open Mic (called Expressions After Dark) at JOSH Lounge.






I plan to attend tonight's Open Mic ... but not to perform lol ...

But for those singers, dancers, poets, etc., wanting to perform should be there by 7:30 pm.

Another Poetry Night is being hosted by one of my favorite local poets, Poetic Justice, at the H&H Lounge (on Hope Street). His event begins at 7 pm. If you can swing it, try to hit BOTH up.



FLASHING FORWARD ...


Ladies and Gents between 18 and 25, you'll get a chance to party on Saturday night ....

Party Pushaz (shout out to Stan) and VIP Entertainment will host Sassy Saturday at the Municipal Auditorium.

They are asking Ladies to pull out the Freakum Dresses and come out and enjoy the festivities. Others should Dress to Impress as well. This is for the Young & Sassy/Fly & Flashy. Doors open at 10 pm.

IN OTHER PARTY NEWS ...

For those into Salsa, there will be a Dance Show at Sandys Dance Center on Friday night.

The center is located 111 Dalton Street. (Call for info) ... Friday's event is $20 in advance, $30 at the door. The event continues Saturday night at Nicky's (Downtown) at 11 pm ($10 admission).

• Pull out your poetry or songs and hit up the poetry nights ... OR
• Pull out that little black dress or button down and hit up the Municipal Saturday night ... OR
• Put on your Salsa dancing shoes and hit up the Salsa event.

Whatever you do ... Drive safe ... Drink responsibly and have a good time (and tell 'em mahogani sent you!).
