THURSDAY OCTOBER 3
THE SOCIAL
Aw shit... Mat Anderson and Brian "The Love Dentist" Dickey are still holdin' it down, providing "deep house for sexy alcoholics." If you love house music and you've never stopped by Lulu's on a Thursday, you should be whipped by a wet noodle. Lulu's, 421 Second Ave, 342-9457, 21+, $5.

FRIDAY OCTOBER 4
SUB_SONIC
With live decks, keys, effects, and samples, Sub_Sonic knows how to keep the party vibe while experimenting with technology. You can be sure that this won't be a bunch of dorks who look like they're hiding behind a laptop. Nation, 1921 Fifth Ave, 374-9492, 9 pm-2 am, 21+, $5.

SATURDAY OCTOBER 5
LIFE
Tonight, Life and Viva! Records present the LawnChair Generals and Jon Lemmon, playing deep funky house. A good time is sure to be had on the dance floor, so I just might bust out my beige bodysuit and leg warmers. Baltic Room, 1207 Pine St, 625-4444, 9 pm-2 am, 21+, $10.SUNDAY OCTOBER 6
CAPITOL CLUB
This spot can be a little stuffy, but it is still a popular Capitol Hill location--especially if you want to rock your black mock turtleneck or your female friends want to sport those long-ass sweater-things that kind of look like robes. Tonight, Michael Antonio plays jazz and soul records. Capitol Club, 414 E Pine St, 325-2149, 9 pm-2 am, 21+, free.

MONDAY OCTOBER 7
INVOLUTION
Monday nights at Nation are still a great night to come out and get your groove on to hiphop, see some crazy shit on the dance floor, or just have a drink and tell the work week to bite the big one. Nation, 1921 Fifth Ave, 374-9492, 9 pm-2 am, 21+, $5.

TUESDAY OCTOBER 8
POLYGRAPHIC

WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 9

Phillip Eno and Chris Field have just gotten back from a pilgrimage to the Far East, and they're excited to share the snacks and records they brought back with them. Des Amis is a nice little spot for dancing, or just relaxing and listening to some house jams. Des Amis, 1013 E Pike St, 322-0703, 9 pm-2 am, 21+, free.
