The eXile’s Sure Shot Extravaganza! Saturday, May 26. Art Garbage. 22:00

After the devastating last minute cancellation of our planned Ikea bash, we just didn’t have the heart to throw another party... until now. But now we’ve got good reason to celebrate - next issue we’re releasing Moscow’s first comprehensive guide to whore houses! And this time you have no excuse for not getting laid. We’ve hired a whore whose job it is to go home with the first guy that propositions her. That’s right, she has to go with the first ex-hole to propose, no matter how sweaty, fat and ex-holeyish he is! And, for all those borderline impotents out there, she’s been ordered to stay with the guy until she gets the job done! There’ll be none of that pay by the hour bullshit. Get there early, scam often and you’re a sure shot!

Lemonade Milk. Saturday, May 19. Crazy Milk. 12:00

The new restaurant that’s opened in Moose-head’s former haunts (see Lionel’s review) is introducing a summer grille menu for the summer. The “lemonade milk” is making its premier with a music festival and a forshet prepared by chefs Andreas (Poncho Villa, Azteka) and Ruben. They don’t know who’s playing yet and the only reason we’re mentioning it yet is because it reminds us of a tragic May Day death we just learned about it. Apparently a man mistook a bottle of antifreeze for Soviet lemonade and died shortly thereafter. It truly was a case of mistaken Lemonade Milk.

Stereolab. Saturday, May 12. Sixteen Tons. 00:00

Maybe this whole Putin phenomenon is a good thing. We don’t know how Sixteen Tons duped Stereolab into coming, but it should be a good time. Imagine electronic music that is actually enjoyable to listen to! What you come up with will probably be pretty close to Stereolab. Besides, Matt Taibbi will be there.

Doktor Kosmos. Saturday, May 5. Kitaisky Lotchik. 23:00

Here’s a textbook example of a self-made man from Sweden. Doktor Kosmos used to be a regular old Swede who ordered take-out a little too often. But ever since he dusted off the old synthesizer lying in his basement, he’s been able to get gigs in Moscow! Sure he had to buy his own ticket and visa to get to play at Lotchik, but we don’t hold that against him. He plays 100 percent studio free music that reminds our resident music guru Phillip Kirkorov of Diva.

Ibiza Party. Wednesday, May 9. Club XIII. 00:00

Last summer, Club XIII threw a party at El Divino, which is a club on the Spanish isle of Ibiza. Now, it’s payback time. Several dozen hot Latino dancers are getting imported to do their Latino thing. The Wednesday show time may or may not be an expression of XIII’s confidence in El Divino’s ability to pull it off.
