SUNDAY, 8/12 from 2-9PM -> Luau Goodness w/DJ Low Key, Kid Hum & DJ Wushu + special Hawaiian-inspired El Chingon tacos & more on the Meadowlark’s patio…

 

SUNDAY, 8/12 from 2-9PM -> Last week was the busiest yet (check the pic below) and the rave reviews keep coming in about how great the vibe at Goodness is, with everyone from randoms who lucked out and found us to Denver culture blogs to die-hard music heads saying it’s their favorite party of the Summer.  This week we’re back at it a with a Hawaiian twist.  Now I’m gonna be honest, my original plan, back before we partnered with El Chingon, was to have a pig roast and luau on 8/12.  I clung on to that idea as things got more and more complicated while trying to make it happen and ultimately, I had steer away from the idea when we learned that due to health code regulations, we wouldn’t be able to roast the pig on-site.  Never one to be held down, I worked with El Chingon’s Chef David Lopez to put together some delicious Hawaiian-inspired taco specials, along with pineapple and mango agua frescas, which is probably the next best thing to a pig roast in keeping with the Hawaiiian theme (and it also doesn’t scare vegetarians quite like a roasted pig’s head…LOL).

Beyond the Hawaiian food and drinks, I’ll be joined on your afternoon’s soundtrack by two very dope cats who I’ve never really had a chance to rock with, but always wanted to; DJ Wushu (Bass Crooks) & Kid Hum (Fossil Fuel Music).  Also, in keeping with the Hawaiian theme, we’re gonna give $25 in tacos and drinks to the person with the best Hawaiian shirt on, so come dressed proper and end up full with a nice buzz on us.  The misters will be keeping us refreshed, the music will be beautiful & the vibe bordering magic on the Meadowlark’s beautiful patio (2701 Larimer St), so come join us.  21+/No Cover.

SUNDAY, 8/5 from 2-9PM -> This Summer just keeps getting better and better.  Last Sunday at Goodness was the busiest yet, our guests blessed the crowd with amazing music and the vibe was damn near flawless.  This week we’re keeping the wins coming and teaming up with one of my favorite crews in Denver, The D.O.P.E. Game, for cocktails, music and more fun. D.O.P.E. stands for Don’t Oppress Positive Energy and these dudes are full of positivity, as anyone who comes out to join us for cocktails will soon see.

For Cocktails With The D.O.P.E.

El Chingon x Goodness menu for Sunday, 7/29.  This week’s special is Carne Adobada tacos and we’ll be debuting mango agua frescas too (as well as featuring the weekly classics of strawberry and pineapple, try them mixed if you haven’t already).  Little things like this are why Sunday is my favorite day of the week.

The Solution Showcase #8 update aka we’ll catch y’all on 8/25 + Catch Theo Martins (LA) & more for free at Goodness on 7/29…

So here we are, close to the 4th Saturday of the month and still barely a mention of The Solution Showcase #8…What gives?  Here’s what happened, due to a miscommunication between the Meadowlark and a charity event that was original scheduled for 7/28 (the date The Solution Showcase #8 was originally set for), the venue ended up being double-booked for a significant portion of the time that we’d be throwing the event.  Not being the type to argue with a charity, we decided to postpone the Solution Showcase for the month of July, but that’s not the interesting part of the story.

Here’s where it gets interesting. I had already booked the planned out of town guest for The Solution Showcase #8, Okayplayer favorite and Los Angeles-based, Providence-bred MC/DJ Theo Martins before getting the news and, having a great relationship with the Meadowlark & Red Bull, they offered to cover the costs of bringing him out so we added him to the lineup for Goodness on Sunday, 7/29 (I hope you already know about Goodness, my new weekly Sunday afternoon party on the Meadowlark’s beautiful patio /// 2701 Larimer St).

So now you can catch Theo Martins, rapping and spinning, as well as the original planned lineup for Goodness; myself, Denver legend DJ Chonz, the very dope and highly slept-on DJ Ear Attent and guest hosts Jessica Simmons (the infamous Solution bartender) and man about town DenverFrank in celebrating the 4 year anniversary of his infamous Denver culture blog, DenverFrank.net.  The lineup is stacked and in Goodness tradition, there’s no cover, so come on down for what promises to be a great day (and a good chance to win a Frank151 Denver Diggers hat). Then, after Goodness, check out Fifty/50, the new Sunday night party that me and Jessica Simmons are launching at Tryst; more info here and on the flyer below.
