Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Barcadia celebrated its one-year anniversary last Friday night, with sailor hats, pin-up girls and the tribute band Queen For A Day onstage, and on Saturday, our nightlife crew hit up the Lizard Lounge for their annual "Meltdown: Summer Edition" party. Filo and Peri spun in the main room, while DJ Merritt and DJ Michael Todd on the roof.
Check out this week's particularly instructive Night Moves set -- and remember: even with a '40s retro theme, rocking the Hitler 'stache doesn't make you any more fun at the party.
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
