Tom - why did you leave out CJ's in your cut and paste article? Don't like
animals?

For many, the weekend is a perfect opportunity to seek solace at a local
watering hole. Moscow has plenty of places that are sure to help students
forget their problems and, depending on the level of consumption, their own
names. This guide will help drinkers navigate the local bar scene like pros.

One of the special features at CJ’s is the karaoke on Wednesdays and
Thursdays. Find the new girl who is now bartending. Be patient and
understanding with your order because sometimes it takes longer, but the
drink will be stronger. Enjoy the neon glow and the pool tables that are cut
off from the dance floor and remember that the drinks are full of liquor.
Beware the circular tables because some shake more than others and this
could be detrimental to cup contents. 

What to drink
CJ’s offers a variety of cheap drinks depending on the night, just like the
others. There is a $10 quad-shot drink served in a bucket, but if you bring
plastic (credit cards), there is a $10 tab minimum anyway. When ordering a
spicy beverage be prepared for some serious spice. A spicy Bloody Mary could
take up to a half-hour to consume.

A Big Easy weekend
Written by Michael Howell -Argonaut
Friday, 02 March 2007
 
This weekend is the annual Moscow Mardi Gras celebration. It's a time of
year when this small college town takes a page out of New Orleans' book and
holds various concerts and parties.
 
In order to help make deciding what to do this weekend easier, The Argonaut
has put together a small preview of what will be happening around Moscow.
 
The Main Street parties:
 
Main Street will be where most of the action this weekend will be happening.
Mingles, The Garden Lounge, John's Alley, The Alehouse, Moscow Moose Lodge,
Moscow Eagles Lodge and Sandpiper's Lounge will all be featuring live music.
 
 
Gary Welch, a manager at Mingles, said most of the musical acts will begin
at 9 p.m. Saturday at any one of the respective locales. Welch also said
people can buy a ticket early for $10 or at the door for $15. Tickets are
available at Mingle's, The Garden Lounge, John's Alley, BookPeople, Safari
Pearl and Ricoshay in Pullman.
 
One ticket can be used to get into any of the concerts during the night and
sales from the tickets will go to charity.
 
"We are using the tickets to raise money for many of the youth organizations
within the community," said Mardi Gras President Roger Crozier. "Last year
we collected over $12,000 for groups like 4-H and Boy Scouts."
 
Bands include:
 
John's Alley - Flowmotion
The Garden Lounge - The Douglas Cameron Band
Mingles of Moscow - The Fabulous Kingpins
The Alehouse - Chubs Toga
The Moscow Moose Lodge - Bare Wires
The Moscow Eagles Club - Citizen
Sandpiper's Lounge - Fat Tones
 
KRFP Celebration
 
Another Mardi Gras event is the KRFP, Radio Free Moscow fundraising dinner.
Lee Robartes, the station manager at KRFP, said that the station is holding
a jambalaya dinner to raise money for the station.
 
"We have where people can pay $5 and just enjoy the music," he said. "Or for
$20, they can eat jambalaya, enjoy either alcoholic or non-alcoholic drinks
and enjoy some great music."
 
Robartes also said there will be a silent auction and music will be provided
by Snake River Six.
 
The event starts at 6:30 p.m. Saturday at the Unitarian Universalist Church
on 420 E. Second St.
 
Finn Riggins, () Benefit Concert
 
The band Finn Riggins, () will be putting on a benefit concert for Friends
of the Clearwater with doors opening at 7 p.m. Friday at the 1912 Building.
Admission for the event is $10 and beer will be for sale for anyone who is
of age.
 
University of Idaho Latin Dance Club Ballroom Dance Extravaganza
 
For people who aren't into the hard party scene, the UI Latin Dance Club
will be hosting a Ballroom Dance Extravaganza.
The event starts at 8 p.m. Saturday at the Physical Education Building dance
studio 110.
 
Performances will include dances such as the Waltz, Foxtrot, Salsa and
others.
 
The price for the event will be $6 per person and $10 for a couple. Half the
proceeds will go to Humanitarian Aid.

Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulez, Moscow.

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving
safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in
sideways, chocolate in one hand, a drink in the other, body thoroughly used
up, totally worn out and screaming 'WOO HOO. What a ride!'"
