Dive Bar Pirate Party!

R Bar (map)

Selected By: The Organizer!

Important last minute details from Joe P!

1) The password for the R Bar may have changed, so call them after 7:00PM at [masked] and ask for the new password if the old one doesn't work. Or just call Chris. I'm sure he'd like that. :-D

2) Anyone attempting to get to the R Bar from the Santa Monica Freeway is in for trouble if they take the Normandie exit. Normandie Avenue is closed between Venice Blvd. & Pico because of the Greek Festival, so get off the 10 freeway on Western or Vermont and take either of those north to 8th Street.

3) We will be joined tonight by Burlesque Pirate Lavendar La Rue! (See photo below.) Alas, she will not be performing tonight, but she will be selling discount tickets for her Pirate Burlesque show at that other Pirate bar, the Redwood, tomorrow night (Sunday)! (Check the Dive Bar Adventures calendar for more details.)


K-Town Dive Bar Pirate Party!

So ye see Cap'n Blinky double checks stuff and ignores Myspace Flyers!..So I called them up... Turns out they jusst canceled their Brunch Specials!! UURRRGGGH! But I spoke to Lindy and they be ready fur us on Saturday when they open at 7pm! So Let's set sail!

Need a Password? Watch the Special Video Your Cap'n Blinky Made for yee.. The Password is in the video!!! Hee hee harrr harr harr!

This is a secret bar that only special dive bar pirates, barflies, and dive bar hosts know about. It requires a secret knock on the door. There is no sign and not any idea that it is a bar inside. You must know the password. No password no entrance.. I tried once..

For those of who wish not to drive! We Begin at the Hollywood and Highland Bar PowerHouse Bar. Get your RedLine Tickets ahead of time!!! But beware me-matey's you must get back to the subway before midnight or be stuck in K-Town Forever! Haaa haa haa!

Be at PowerHouse from 7-7:30 otherwise yee bee missing when we set sail....

We take the Redline to the Normandie station and walk two blocks to 8th street and hang a right.. To the R Bar...


Its cool and dark and as the weather heats up into Santa Ana conditions.. This will be your cool down in the dark corners of Koreatown to chill and enjoy a little bloody mary in the midst of the dark wood and occasional nautical references...

Spoke to Lindy and she said the have specials all night long... What shall they be? I have no liverlobing idear... So stop your buschtailed wally wubbing and sign up you Dive Bar Adventurer!

Or you can sail straight to ye Pirate Bar yourself.. But bewares, it gets might busy at night.. And ye must find me to get your glowy band... Good Luck! See ya there! TXT ME [masked]
