Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
We don't like to brag, but we can throw some pretty awesome parties. From St. Patrick's Day festivities to the Music Awards, our events are always memorable, even if you had too many Jell-O shots and passed out in a stranger's yard on the M Streets. Tonight we're throwing a bash that you won't want to miss because, well, it's in honor of you. Yes, you. Come to our first-ever Dallas Observer Tweet-Up party at McKinney Avenue Tavern (2822 McKinney Ave.) from 6 to 8 p.m. for free appetizers and ridiculously cheap drinks. There's live music from Kristen Major and Brad Thompson, plus we'll be giving away tickets for our St. Patrick's Day Concert featuring the Toadies to the guest sporting the most shamrocks and coolest green garb. We're looking forward to meeting you -- our readers, Facebook fans and Twitter followers -- so send your RSVP to @ObserverDallas and we'll save you a seat at the bar.
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.
