Wow! What an eventful weekend for the RVA area. In
celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., there were tons of events taking
place around the city for Richmonders to take part in. Events ranged from
community events such as, Occupy the Dream to social events for the RVA
partygoer, like the 4th Annual MLK Day Party held at downtown Richmond's
Hippodrome Theater. Although there was
plenty for all to do throughout the city, one particular event created a
"BUZZ" like no other, and that was the 7th Annual Black Gala "A
Black Tie Edition" presented by STAGE! From what I understand from our
sources, this event was classy, elite, and upscale. Held at Richmond
International Raceway's Torque Club this venue offered the perfect back drop to
a crowd of Richmond's elite partygoers, with music provided by local RVA band
Chkn Grease as well as local DJ that kept the crowd moving and grooving!
However, supposedly there was one downfall, which was the bar service. Mixx
sources indicated that the bartenders were not at all equipped to handle crowd,
resulting in long lines and waits, but if this is the only complaint, I would
dare to say that this was definitely the place to be in RVA!
If you would like to see your event "Thrown in the MixX"....step your game up!
You've just been MixXed...not stirred!
