Launched in 2003, Bootie was the first club night in the United States dedicated solely to the burgeoning artform of the bootleg mashup - and is now the biggest mashup event in the world. Mixing and matching every conceivable musical genre, era, and style into one big dance party where everyone feels welcome, Bootie provides the soundtrack for the A.D.D. generation - with free mashup CDs given away like candy!
Resident DJs Adrian, the Mysterious D, and
Party Ben keep your brain guessing and your feet dancing with creative song combinations, while live house band
Smash-Up Derby rocks the house every month at 11 PM. Guest mashup DJs from around the world are featured, while the infamous midnight mashup show showcases popular local drag and burlesque performers. Bootie... because one song at a time just isn't enough.
This month, it's the Bootie Holiday Party! DJ Adrian will be spinning a "very special" all-Christmas music mashup set from 10-11 pm. Smash-Up Derby will also throw a few holiday-themed mashups into their set. Oakland's DJ
Jay-R is this month's guest DJ, and
Malderor and
Redstickman from Fandango turn the upstairs into the "Xmas Lounge." Don't forget to wear a Santa hat so you can get a free CD from our drunk Santa Claus!
