i meant to tell you that d:fuse was gonna be there when i heard that a few days ago; i'm sorry i forgot, borlab . i really like donald glaude live; you should enjoy him. i saw him last year in december - on my birthday, actually (dec. 27th). and spundae is always great; i've never had a bad or even a so-so night there. spundae is my fave club, as everyone on this board has seen me write a million times . you can find street parking around the area. there is also a lot across the way for $4 or 5, and i think the lot right at circus is $7 or so, but i've never parked there. i generally park on the street, but my best friend prefers to park in the lot because the area isn't that well-lit. i always arrive at spundae around 10 and everything flows very smoothly then. people on this board have complained about waiting in lines at spundae, and i've never had to wait longer than a few minutes for anything. getting there early is always a good idea. as far as restaurants and bars are concerned, i don't think there's anything around there. there is no dress code! it's one of the things i love about spundae. people are mostly dressed pretty casually, but there's a bit of a mix. lights and glowsticks are fine and used by quite a few folks. if you get there early enough, there's free fruit on the patio. yum ! from the door guy that hugs everyone to the clubbers themselves, spundae has the friendliest vibe around . i hope you have a great time !
