"Mardi Gras" usually means a decadent celebration - dancing and partying all night long in fantastic costumes -- in other words, just another Saturday night at Bootie LA! We'll get the Mardi Gras Mashquerade going with plenty of masks, feathers, and beads to get you in the Carnaval spirit! Dress to impress, or just show up in street clothes with your dancing shoes on - because Bootie will have plenty of masks and beads on hand to get you ready for Mardi Gras! Laissez les bons temps rouler!

Kicking the night off at 11 PM in full Bourbon Street style will be Hubba Hubba Revue, as they take to the Main Stage to titillate and tease you with the Bay Area's best burlesque -- and you don't even have to throw beads to see all that sexy skin! Resident Bootie DJs Mysterious D, Tripp, and Entyme fill the Main Room with more rich decadent mashups than you can imagine, even though you don't have to fast afterwards to enjoy them!

Upstairs in the Lounge, it's Party Killers, featuring the return of Party Ben, along with Mykill, as the pair throw down house remixes and more to make you dance. In the Above, it's Las Baygas, as DJs Ajax, Lorenzo, and Turnstylz spin Vegas-style club bangers to get you on the dance floor. And in the Dazzle Room, it's Damn Gina, with DJ Fox and Kool Karlo spinning super fun dance music to get your groove on. All this, plus drag hosts Holy McGrail and Suppositori Spelling, photos of you in your Carnival finery by ShutterSlut, and Free Bootie mashup CDs to the first 100 people!

Launched in 2003 by San Francisco DJ duo A Plus D, Bootie was the first club night dedicated solely to the then-burgeoning artform of the bootleg mashup -- and is now the biggest mashup event in the world, with regular parties in several cities. Winning various nightlife awards for the past 12 years, Bootie celebrates pop culture both past and present, keeping your brain guessing and body dancing with creative song combinations. Mixing and matching every musical genre, era, and style into one big dance party, it's a place where everyone is welcome. And with free mashup CDs given away like candy, Bootie provides the soundtrack for the A.D.D. generation.
