Happy Hour and free gas at Knox Street Pub

Just heard from Blake Bogus, the owner of Knox Street Pub. If you visit the bar during happy hour with a group of four or more -- ideally more -- they'll give you (the group organizer) a free gas card. The dollar amount is completely at their discretion, and I believe most of it is in small increments (i.e., $10), so don't go expecting $20 or $40 or something. But a little bit here and there seems helpful, no? Happy hour is 4 to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday.

If you really want to get crazy with the gas thing, there's also a DART bus that drops you off on McKinney Ave and Armstrong, directly across the street from the pub. I've taken it before. It's nice.



Myst's grand opening tomorrow

Myst, the new lounge next to Purgatory, has technically been open for a few months now, but as is the case in Nightlife Land, they're throwing a huge debut party to officially announce it to the world. It's tomorrow at 10 p.m. DJ Adam Rush out of Hollywood is on the decks. (Expect hard trance/techno.)

I'm curious as to how this place is going to do. They're taking over the old Babylon spot, a place that fared horribly, but they've spruced things up to make it feel upscale. They're also eschewing the usual upscale Dallas lounge formula by having (gasp!) African-American and Latino nights, right off the bat. Most places wait four or five months before appealing to the minority crowd. I don't know why that is. Do minorities not have money to spend?

On a personal note, sorry I've been gone for awhile. I was on vacation in Mexico City and then I came back to the worst stomach virus EVER. But I'm better now. Although the thought of drinking tequila makes me want to gag.
