The Beautiful People at Candleroom

You have to love Candleroom. Dallas's classy "Place to be seen" was rocking Thursday night as the "Bottles and Boots" program kicked off and I had to say, I watched these peoples eye brows raised as they wondered what the hell was going on with this music. "Bottles and Boots" mashes Country with Hip Hop to amazing results. One minute your listening to Kenny Chesney and out of nowhere 50 Cent is in the club. Go figure, but it worked!!

Now about the people, it's blend of the hip and the ultra hip. Bottle Service (Zodiac is available there) cuts off the wanna be rich from the rest of us, but they sure are fun to look at. People "Dress" to go to Candleroom, and it's nice to see a place in town that so hugely resembles L.A. or NYC.

Cretia's on McKinney goes "Bottles and Boots"


Cretia's, the ever-popular restaurant, turned SMU hangout is going to feature a very interesting concept over the next few months: Starting this coming Wednesday, they will feature a "Mash Up" of Country music and Hip Hop that has to be heard and not read about. It's impossible to describe. One moment you're hearing Faith Hill and then there's Lil Wayne somehow blended into the beats of the song. They started this at "Candleroom" last week and it was truly amazing to watch people dancing to what I'm sure they didn't quite get, but loved it anyway. If you haven't been to either Cretia's or Candleroom lately, there are no hotter spots in Dallas than these two places right now. Candleroom tends to get the beautiful people there and Tommy D and Shaun are great hosts. Cretica's, which has just re-opened is at the far north end of McKinney almost too close to Highland Park for it to be truly fun, but it is. You need to check this out. Of course Zodiac Vodka is the "bottle" part of this promotion. You can't miss out when you're only paying $100 for a bottle service at either of these places!
