I don't think I'm pretty enough to hang at Ghostbar. Not with the likes of Jessica and Ashlee Simpson. Nor, I assume, the guy this event's press release calls "the Brad Pitt of Mexico." And I'm certainly not in Biz Markie's league...uh, wait. Really? Biz can get in? Well, OK then: I'm there maybe! 'Cause, tonight, Ghostbar's hosting its second anniversary with a 4th of July Sleepover Bash! And Biz is DJing! That guy from Gym Class Heroes, too! And some British guy! And that rap-rock band that won some award at Quick's Big Thing! Whoop, there it is, I think! Especially considering that the event runs from 8 p.m. till 2 a.m. and you can get a "Party Package" for the low, low cost of...um, starting at $329! S-C-O-R-E!
