Malabomba! 1-Year Anniversary Cabaret ~ Tonight Bordello Bar

6:00 PM PDT on May 20, 2010

Yes, MALABOMBA!, L.A.'s ONLY Gypsy-spiced International Dance Party returns with a fury on Thursday, May 20th, with the MALABOMBA! 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY CABARET! And, yes, like most one-year-olds, we will be doing our best to keep you from sleeping.

Over several dizzying bouts of exotic foods, intoxicating beverages, and sleepless nights, your hosts and devoted BOMBAderos Roderick and Jason devised a night of celebration that would properly capture the exhilarating spirit of the past 12 months of MALABOMBA! In gratitude, we simply wanted to giveback to you as much as you have given us over the past year. So we reckoned the best way to celebrate was to load up the caravan and give you everything we've got; packing in as much live musical madness, free CD giveaways, and dance floor debauchery at you as you can possibly take in one night.

Live music, DJ's and of course, dancing!  Fuck borders, let's dance!

FREE admission before 9:30
Only $5 cash after (What? EIGHT performances for $5? OPA!)
FULL BAR
FULL BOMBA!
