RECAP: PASSAFIRE @ JANNUS LIVE REGGAE SUNDAY


What's up Sociabulls!?

Hope you were able to catch the amazing show last night at Jannus Live. Passafire was the m
ain featured band in the Reggae Sunday series at Jannus, but the best part is, that is was free! Having Passafire stop by Jannus for a show was a pleasant surprise because St. Petersburg was not a listing on the Start from Scratch Tour. So when word gets around about Passafire having a free show at Jannus, St. Pete finds its ways to pack the place!

The vibe and energy was intense and full of reggae aficionados. The crowd comprise
d of passionate Passafire fans, roots reggae rock fans and people just enjoying a free show with good music. Fans singing along, a piƱata being thrown around and some glowing hula hooper's hooping in the back.

Fans got a good share of Passafire songs from previous albums, but also got to experience a lot of new songs from their recent one, Start from Scratch. One of the performances that stuck
out the most was a full acoustic performance of "Dimming Sky" with a very nice addition of a ukulele. Another really neat part of the concert was the reggae cover version of Miike Snow's indie hit, "Animal." The cover was insanely catchy and had the entire crowd into it.

At the end of the concert, when Passafire left the stage, the crowd was not ready to let the night end. A encore is what the crowd demanded and voiced very loudly. Passafire ended up coming out to play one more song and thank St. Pete and Jannus Live for the night. Call this a true encore and not something planned. Be sure to check out all of the pictures on the facebook and we better see you at the next Reggae Sunday!


Absolute packed crowd for Passafire!

Great energy all around!

Thanks for the shows Adam!

THREE GREAT LATE MUNCHIES IN DTSP FOR 2012

Downtown St. Petersburg has always provided you with some of the best spots to go out and get your drinks. As we all know one of the main side effects from the late night drinking is the craving for the fourth meal. Lets prepare ourselves for 2012 go down the chart on the best spots to eat late at night.
These amazing spots are there for you to go out and enjoy when you're Downtown and need to get your munch on.

Burrito Boarder
Some of the best tasting food in the state of Florida with a unique atmosphere and fresh ingredients. Anything on the menu tastes great and you wont find similar flavors anywhere else. The employees are very relaxed and will be happy to serve the late night fourth meals. Enjoy your burrito with a fresh tea and some great tunes for a very unique experience most downtown spots can not offer. Eat inside or out and enjoy your amazing Mexican food with flavors that are sure to enhance after a couple cold ones. Don't forget that if you have a college I.D. you can get a discount! Oh, almost forgot, they also serve beer!

Fortunato'sSome of the best tasting food late at night is a great slice of pizza. Luckily, at Fortunato's there are several options for you to get the perfect slice you need. Thursday nights and First Friday's are when you will see the most amount of people lining up to try to get a slice. Waiting to grab your own slice does not take long at all though. The atmosphere of people hanging out with the happy drunchies (drunken munchies) will find a creative way to entertain themselves. By the time you get your slice and get that first bite, you will truly know that you made the right choice. 
259 Central Ave Downtown Saint Petersburg

Angie'sThe one spot out of these three with the widest variety of food to pick from has to be a little place called Angie's. Late at night, Angie's closes the inside seating and becomes a window shop right next to Jannus Live. Here you can get freshly made french fries, burgers and chicken fingers quickly. Angie's is fun to get any time you are craving that fourth meal or attending an event at Jannus Live. The food is great and they service is entertaining, one of the best fourth meal options here in St. Petersburg, so be sure to try it at least once.

RECAP: SLIMMIE HENDRIX AT BISHOPS 12/16/11


Bishops Tavern & Lounge kicked off with a dedicated audience for the All You Can Drink from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m. and DJ Barry Carew spinning some fresh dance tunes. From the beginning of the night there was a strong positive atmosphere in the VIP. There were several birthdays being celebrated with everyone and bottles being popped everywhere. Around 11:30 p.m. the Lounge was getting packed with happy people and an energetic dance floor. We got a very special visit from recording artist QWILZ and helped us pop some bottles as well.

Once Slimmie Hendrix took the stage, the crowd was still packed and everyone gathered their energy to enjoy the show. Slimmie played songs from his EP, Sleezington Ave (download here) and got everyone into it, including a freestyle from a member in the crowd.

When Slimmie ended his show and got a great response, the party continued with more jams from DJ Barry Carew. The night had energy, happiness, an awesome atmosphere that you would NOT want to miss next time. Be sure to check out the next event at Bishops and don't forget, $10 ALL YOU CAN DRINK 9-11pm every Friday night!

**NEW** SKRILLEX- BREATHE



This SKRILLEX song is unlike most of the other songs that he has made in the past. For starters it isn't a remix of a song, it completely his own creation, and secondly it has more of a chill vibe to and isn't the hard womp womp accompanied by vocalization that we are used but it is still great none the less. Hope you guys enjoy it! 

Skrillex- Breathe
