TNG is Party-ing! TNG is Party-ing!
A bite& BYTE on Sunday:
We'll be meeting up at 8pm Sunday at 'Inoteca (98 Rivington St., at Ludlow). We'll be headed over to the Delancy Lounge (168 Delancey, b/t Clinton and Attorney) for the Byte party around 10, 10:30ish.
Dinner is just for TNGers& their guests,
Dancing is for Everyone!
The cover depends on how you dress-- it's one of the ways the organizers of Byte encourage people to get into the spirit. It's $5 if you're a "fetish diva, creative goth, cyberpunk, material girl, fashionista... alternative sexiness... and anyone who can leave their inhibitions at home". $10 for all black, $15 for anything else. Black, lacy, anything you can find really will work. It's all about how you carry it--if you believe that you've got more angst-y fabulousness than everyone else in the room, they'll believe it too. Trust me. Just stay away from sneakers ;>
