I won’t lie… Phil’s just might be the hottest bar I’ve ever set foot in. I had sweat dripping off my face before I even got my first drink the last time I went to this dive bar that clearly doesn’t believe in Phoenician’s rights to A/C. But I can also tell you that I stuck around regardless, because the place was packed with friends I hadn’t seen for awhile and the music was loud and mixed well. By the end of the night I was converted to Phil’s fan-club. So when you’re asking yourself if there’s somewhere to go tonight where you can dance and enjoy yourself free of pretension, this is definitely the spot I’d recommend.

Tonight is a special edition of their Friday night party Ransom that will feature guest DJ Epidemic and the residents spinning a mix of 90′s classics and I’m sure a few obscure ones as well. Epidemic just returned from an East Coast tour where I’m sure he gained a legion of fans with his sets that know no limits of where to go and how to rock a party. I have a feeling that it’s going to get extra hot in this bar tonight, and though I’ll probably bitch for awhile, I have a hunch that it’s going to be so worth it. Here’s an edit that Epidemic just released to get your blood pumping a little in the middle of a Friday afternoon.
