I felt a SERIOUS urge to shake it and Dirty Pretty was up to the challenge. It was Dirty. It was Pretty. But I wouldn't call it a "Rockbar" in a million years.
The music started out pretty good. Top 40 dance music mixed in with a little something different every 3 or 4 songs. Only complaint about the DJ is that he was super ADD and only played like 20 seconds of a song and then changed it. Take your Adderall man and play the *entire* Single Ladies song so I can dance with my girlfriends!
I like the atmosphere but the dance floor was pretty small. The crowd was a good mix and drinks were reasonably priced. Best part was that I met some pretty interesting characters including Nostrovia Russia Free Shot Dude, the Tallest Man in the World, and capped it off with Mr. White Man Can't Dance. Ah, the memories.
Does it seem weird that I *really* loved the bathroom? The sign on the door of the "ladies" room said Sexy Bitches (see photo) and the best part is that there was not one, but TWO towel valets for a 3 stall bathroom. Really folks? I can tear off my own paper towel, but thanks. The valets were very sweet though considering what they probably have to deal with in a typical evening.
So yeah, this place was pretty great for a no pressure night out to dance.
