When I first moved here, I used to like jazz. I went into a little jazz club one night and sat at the bar. I started talking to a woman near me (I'm also a woman) and it turned out she was married to a guy in a famous band. She started inviting me to different events -- and, well, foot in the door. You get it?

Makes sense. I guess I'll give it a shot.

The venue may have a Facebook page that you can participate in. For some people, getting connected with others from an event that way is more comfortable. I've also seen FB pages for specific events and for roaming recurring themed events.

Anybody else out there going to the big underground party tonight? This is probably going to be the best one in years.
