Party’s free and runs all night.Channel your inner teenager and join us as “CJ the DJ” spins tunes from the 1950s and ’60s at the Sock Hop on Sunday, Septemfrom 3:00-5:00 p.m. Here’s hoping the night goes down a whole lot like that Body Rock tribute to the Native Tongues movement that Riders Against the Storm threw in May, when about 80 people crammed into Hotel Vegas’ tiny confines and rapped along to Busta Rhymes’ verse midway through A Tribe Called Quest’s “Scenario.”ĭoors at 8pm, with b-boys and b-girls taking to the floor around 10. “That, and making sure the bass is hitting’ hard as hell,” a detail no doubt already considered by Big Daddy Kane.
