Dog Days of August… Day 2: Bar 7

I took these pics last night at Bar 7, a bar/lounge in downtown DC. Every Thursday, Bar 7 hosts a Happy Hour which eventually transitions into a club of sorts with live music provided by local band, Black Alley. This has been a weekly gathering for a couple of years, but admittedly, I have never been. I had a great time, though. I am not really a “downtown” type of girl, so the after work crowd has never appealed to me. Especially since DC is so heavily inundated with Federal government employees who can sometimes be very conservative. But this crowd was easy, welcoming, and very mature. The drinks were flowing, the bar food (wings, fries, tenders) was tasty, and Black Alley rocked the house, usual, with their fusion of Rock, Go-Go, R&B, Pop, and Heavy Metal. All in all, I enjoyed myself. And of course, some of my girls were with me, so even better. Today is my second day out, but I’m already beat. I’m too old for all this…
