Platinum, baby

Here’s I spent my birthday, courtesy of the new Bud Light Platinum and UNIUN nightclub:

BLP-1-small

This was a launch event headlined by Diplo who, after numerous downings of the aluminum-clad, delightfully strong (6%), and genuinely and surprisingly tasty beers (not my regular but one I can honestly recommend), had little chance of appearing in any of my photos. But I did cut a rug, mosh it up, bump up against many anonymous sweaty people, and Sarah and I got to catch up with some old social media pals of mine I hadn’t seen in a while, like Zach Bussey

BLP-3-small

…and the incredibly elusive @clickflicka:

BLP-2-small

Our media passes, replete with a cordoned off section that smacked of VIP, put the cherry on top of an already fantastic night. And I was heartened to discover that even in my advanced age, I can still shake my caboose with the youngins.

    Appalling. The decadence of today’s youth is simply appalling. Why, in my day after splitting a cord of hardwood by hand using only a hatchet fashioned from shale, we’d be so tired it was all we could do to behead and pluck a chicken so Ma could make soup for all thirteen of us. Dance? Yeah we danced alright. We danced like string puppets trying to stay out of the way of the reven-oors who was always just one step behind looking to take away the only joy we had in life -our likker. Life wasn’t easy. And if it hadn’t been for Brother Doug standing up for me and the younger folk we’d never have become the successes we are. Chicken? No more plucking for me. Nowadays it’s either a bucket or nothing.
