So can we consider Sacramento “coming to town” if we’re in the San Francisco or the East Bay? I’m leaning towards yes. It’s hella closer than Ibiza, even if we use the scientific definition of hella. I’m sure all you brilliant readers know who Sasha is, but if not just take a look at his case for best producer of the 00’s I wrote up right here.
This is the second in a star studded kick off for “District 30″ in Sacramento, the first being Steve Aoki this Thursday night. I’d be super hyped for this new venue if they weren’t already trying to be everything I despise about Super Clubs. Check it:
“A boutique Dance Lounge for the socially sophisticated. District 30 is posh, elegant, and has a comfortable environment. We are on par with some of the world’s hottest clubs from San Francisco to New York and Las Vegas to Miami, this is a place to see and be seen.”
*gag* I think I just threw up in my mouth. Memo to District 30: YOU ARE IN SACRAMENTO. Embrace it’s small town with cool, down to earth people charm instead of trying to be everything we hate about superclubs, except lookin way worse BECAUSE YOU ARE IN SACRAMETNO. Ohh well, love the music, not the club.
UPDATE (1/12/2011) - Brilliant reader and long time friend of The Beatery “The Baron” points out that if you wait a mere 24hrs that you can actually see the very same Sasha in the 415! He’ll be at Ruby Sky Friday, 1/21/2020. Get tix here, they’re already $30 tho! And The Baron also points out that SF prog staple, Qool founder and friend of The Beatery “Spesh” will be opening for Sasha, in Sac and SF! KILLER lineup. I can’t go Friday (headed back to Bolivia for a Youth Congress on Water and Environmental Sustainability the next morning) but do let us know how it is if you make it out!
And speaking of music, to get us in Sasha mood let us groove out to some hot, fresh, new progressive jammy jams.

So am I gonna see you in Sac for Sasha?? Or should we talk about how we all hate pretentious super clubs?

I know it’s a typo, but I like “Sacramet-NO!”
I gotta say, the term “sacramet-NO” is about as perfect as a jerry bonham closing set. It’s really that good. Was just gonna add that if you don’t want to see sasha at district 30 (”conveniently located in the k street mall”), you can see him at another horrible super club that’s a bit closer - ruby skye - the following night.
As an added bonus, our old friend from minna will be opening - spesh!
I am beyond bummed to be missing both Spesh AND Sasha together in SF. sigh
and ps that is a GREAT new sasha song. When you see him in Sac can you tell him to get his butt over to istanbul already?
“hella”… that’s right.
