On the wild side...

Some of my vast adventures with JMK in D.C. included finding places paaaaaaarrrty. Left to our own devices, we apparently found the sketchiest places in the city.

Our first misadventure began with the entire SHFW crew. We made our way to a so called Platinum Club in the Chinatown area because one of the crew members was still only 20. After repeatedly being harassed while we waited in line, we decided a $20 cover was just too much. So we left and never saw the inside of the club despite our youngest crew member’s insistence that it looked like a really interesting place and that we should return. Tragedy befell Platinum a few weeks later when there was a fatal shooting outside its doors.

Then, looking to experience the Dupont party life, we made our way to Club Five due to my friend iPA’s suggestions. Club Five “has been temporarily shut down while authorities investigate a Memorial Day weekend stabbing.”

Chinnn!

The two clubs we sort of went to are the two clubs that were shut down by recent D.C. crackdowns. We sure do know how to pick ‘em!
