You guys didn't tell him about the very best after hours bar district in the city. It's in this place called Anacostia. You get off the metro and walk 8 blocks in any direction.

Ahhhh...the original 9:30 Club before they moved to WUST Hall. I don't know why the address didn't register...must be all the Bs. It was a much better place to hang than the "velvet rope" joint across the street or the po'n shop just 'round the corner.

yeah find the french one
the french embassy is off the campus of G-town, a white fortress in the woods, you can't miss it.

recently moved from DC to Philly area, and I'm on the verge of admitting i miss the trails there. Schaefer farms, acctotink/wakefield, and fountainhead as possible after work rides beat most things I've found in philly, but maybe i need to look around more.

Hands up if you ever slammed into one of those poles. :)
I slammed someone into one a couple of times. He didn't get the hint the first time that I didn't like being punched in the face while he was "dancing".

Dude WTF?! Are you trying to get this kid killed? Do not go to S.E. D.C. (Anacostia) unless you want to get shot! Insted go to Dupont Circle area, all kinds of good bars and hot girls around there haha.

Anywhere East of RFK Stadium is bad news and you'll smell the Anacostia River before you see it. The only time I ever went there was to get liquor on a Sunday for a concert at RFK...and we were in my friend's car. Dupont's hot girls are of the Crying Game variety, unfortunately.
