SINGLES NIGHT
Silver + Gold
Come chill out at North Loop sweet-spot Clubhouse Jager
every Tuesday at this subtle and sassy singles party! Enjoy 2-4-1 drink
specials all night long, prepared by red-haired hottie and resident
bartender Angie,
who is a mixologist of epic proportions (ask her to
famous "surprise" drinks or shots, you won’t be disappointed). Grab a
private booth, belly up to the bar, or take in the summer breeze on
Jager’s awesome outdoor patio while enjoying the eclectic beats
of one Jonathan Ackerman, whose Tuesday night repertoire ranges from Kanye West to David Byrne. Ok, I know what you’re thinking: singles night =
lame. Not so, especially considering that yours truly co-hosts the night! Honestly, Jager is a great neighborhood bar with a classy
ambiance and friendly patrons and staff, so single or not, Tuesday, (or
any night for that matter) at the Clubhouse is always a good bet. Not to mention, I’ll
be there on my laptop all night, so come down and say hi, or hit on me
– it is singles night after all!
Bonus: Don’t forget to leave a secret note for your crush on l’etoile’s Text Connections
website the next day!
9pm, Clubhouse Jager, 923 Washington Ave N., Minneapolis, Free
THEATER
American Buffalo
Head to the Bedlam tonight for a spot of violence and vulgarity as David Mamet and Mike Rasmussen debut American Buffalo,
the gritty tale of 
plot to rip off a valuable coin collection from a junk shop. As the
heist progresses, so does the tension between the characters who
eventually resort to real violence against each other in the battle for
alpha-crook. Make a date of it, with a pre-show happy hour cocktail at
the Bedlam’s cute bar, or share one of their "Polish-fusion" thin crust
pizzas which are a definite must-try for anyone with tastebuds! And if
you’re looking to get rowdy after the play, stop by the
nearby Triple Rock Social Club for some late-night dance-action at Triple Double featuring Mike the 2600 King, DJ Espada, and Paper Tiger.
7pm (Nightly through August 24th), Bedlam Theater, 1501 S. 6th Street, West Bank, $5
SHOPPING
Rewind
This week’s hot shoppin’ tip comes to you from the outer fringe
of lovely Northeast Minneapolis! Darling vintage clothing shop, Rewind, is tucked away in a tiny blink-or-you’ll-miss-it storefront on Johnson
One of THE best places to shop for quirky retro accessories and unique
duds, this gem of a shop should definitely be on your shopping hit
list. Each time I venture into Rewind’s crowded and cozy fashion haven,
I am immediately fixated on the jewelry displays, which are crammed
full of funky beaded necklaces, weird brooches, sparkly baubles,
trinkets and do-dads of all shapes and sizes. Like owls? Their
owl-related accessory collection is probably the biggest you’ll find in
the city, outside your crazy neighbor lady’s house that is. Top off
your vintage shopping spree with a pop-in to the always delightful Crafty Planet for some kitshy-cool crafting inspiration, or treat yourself to dinner at any one of the yummy little restaurants located within walking distance of the shop.
Open Mon-Sat, Noon-7pm; Sun, Noon-4pm, Rewind, 2829 Johnson Street, Northeast Minneapolis
