DOWN & DERBY LAS VEGAS
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14th | VALENTINE'S DAY
BEAUTY BAR | DOWNTOWN LAS VEGAS
East Coast hipster party Down & Derby www.downandderby.org is a roller skating party designed to take people back to a time when parties were all about having carefree fun without the worries of high-fashion or heavy expense. Guests are treated to a custom-built roller skating rink, cocktails and only the best party music by resident skate guard DJs Nugget and $HR3D (SHRED).
Beginning Saturday, February 14th with the ‘Couple Skate Kick-off’ and continuing each second Saturday monthly, Down & Derby will produce a monthly roller disco at Las Vegas’ downtown hangout, Beauty Bar. Each month will be themed differently, but all with the same premise - skating, dancing, drinking and falling on your ass!
Don’t have skates? No problem, D&D has more than 200 pairs of roller skates available to rent for only $5! Come get your roll on!

DOWNTOWN COCKTAIL ROOM HOLIDAY PARTY
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 19th / 10PM / NO COVER
Oh no! Another holiday party you say? More mindless banter with co-workers surrounded plastic cupped cocktails and little hot dogs on toothpicks? Not this time my friends...save it for next year.
This time around, join your friends downtown as resident DJ Carlos Sanchez plus special guest DJ Sensé throw down for Downtown Cocktail Room's official holiday party. With nothing but cozy house tunes all night, this holiday party will keep you warm and fuzzy like a hot toddy and a crackling yuletide log...especially given Las Vegas has just had it's largest dump of snow in years!
Yes, I know it is a time for giving...but it's about time to give unto yourself as well...you need a break from all the madness, the shopping, the handshaking, the client maintenance and the holiday stress so pull up to a stiff drink and let yourself go on the dancefloor to some sexy house beats all night long...you know you deserve it ;-)
Happy Holidays everyone, see you on the dancefloor!
-Sensé
DJ Dealer and Lisa Millett met years ago at a European music conference in Rimini, Italy. At the time, Lisa’s massive vocal on ATFC’s “Bad Habit” was literally tearing through the entire dance industry. Through this connection, Dealer called upon Lisa to do a song together which ended up being the original production “Closer”. Releasing the cut on Dealer’s own Look At You imprint, this early project was the beginning of a very special relationship between the two artists.
Following that first production, Dealer was asked to remix The Goodfella’s “Soul Heaven” on Azuli (UK) which featured Lisa on vocals. Through these projects, DJ Dealer fell in love with Lisa’s voice along with the amazing personality that she brought to the table in the studio. The rest as they say, is history.
Upon developing DJ Dealer’s first full length album “Joyride”, it only made sense that he would once again call on Lisa to work on a song together. Almost 2 years in the making, “You’re All I Need” came to fruition as the first essential cut on “Joyride”. As the album began to take shape, Lisa ended up doing 2 more songs which have collectively become the vocal anchor that ties “Joyride” together. With three key vocal cuts on the album, it made perfect sense for DJ Dealer and Lisa Millett to tour together in support of “Joyride”.
Along with the collaborations and production work, the two have already done live shows together in Denver, San Francisco, London and most recently Las Vegas. They also have more production projects in the works for Lisa’s forthcoming album. Stay tuned as DJ Dealer and Lisa Millett take all of these ingredients and take it live on the road for the “2008 Joyride Tour!”

DJ Dealer and Lisa Millett return for another stint in sunny Las Vegas for a smoking hot pool party at the Mirage's European pool, "Bare". Some of you may remember the last time this dynamic duo came and rocked a 944 Vegas event at last year's 944 2-Year Anniversary on the Simon's patio at Hard Rock. For those who missed it...here's your chance to see these two in action poolside. Ahhh, life and house music baby!
DOWNTOWN COCKTAIL ROOM | ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY EVENT
This is one Vegas house music event that you will not want to miss. Join resident DJ Carlos Sanchez along with San Francisco's Julius Papp in one of the most intimate venues in Las Vegas. Get there early or book a table at Downtown Cocktail Room as space is limited and this is sure to be a packed house.
Located in the heart of downtown Las Vegas on the corner of Fremont Street and Las Vegas Blvd, "Downtown" is fast becoming one of the best local haunts in the 702. Fully equipped with a Funktion One soundsystem (Legendary NYC house club Cielo is also tricked out with this amazing soundsystem!), I am anxious to hear it bumped up to its full potential for this special occasion.
Strap up your dancin' shoes kids, as always...see ya on the dancefloor!
