What’s that old saying a young artist named Pink once said? “Get the party started on a Saturday night.” If you’re looking for a party to heighten your weekend, look no further than Glow at Boots and Saddle. Hosted weekly by Kareem McJagger and Brita Filter, Glow is a high energy dance party with pop up drag shows that keeps the night alive. Glow is like a buffet that can easily fill up your nightlife plate. A spoonful of dancing, a dollop of g- go boys, and a healthy helping of drag. Just enough to satisfy your every need. The night starts off with your favorite dance hits spun by the amazing DJ T-Boy as Bryce Adonis and Anthony Paparelli take the stage as the evenings’ go-go boys. Brita and Kareem drink and mingle with the crowd before taking over with a pop up drag show alongside guest host Vanna Deux. And let’s just say they turned the party out. Between Kareem’s Kesha megamix to Vanna’s Pokémon tribute to Brita’s money mix, the crowd was here for the energetic party atmosphere. No wonder this event was a previous GLAM winner! After another dancing set, the queens returned for a high-spirited drag suicide. The requests ranged from the typical pop divas to the acts of the past, and everyone got what they wanted. Especially those who tipped a little bit more.
It takes a certain type of performer to keep a dance party going from beginning to end. By this point, the Glow team has the formula figured out perfectly.
