Check out photos of the

great costumes from the Halloween party here

It’s time to start working on your costume for Vito’s Halloween Party with Lushy!
Sat, October 29, 9pm – Sun, October 30, 2am
The Hideout, The Sorrento and Vito’s Proudly Present the Second Annual ER COSTUME CRAWL
Join us for the second annual ER Costume Crawl with a $500.00 grand prize for best costume! First Hill rounds up a great turnout for this artist fueled costume party, and all three destinations have great music and festivities planned – DJ Stack spinning records at the Hideout, Lushy performing at Vito’s and a haunted suite at the Sorrento to boot! It is a great party, with no cover charge, but you must be 21+ with proper id and you must be in costume – it’s just too crowded otherwise! Grab a room at the Sorrento and settle in for a wild and crazy time!

Happy Halloween!

Check out the very first official Tiki Oasis Records vinyl 45 RPM!
The Tiki Oasis 11 Commemorative 7” Record features Tiki Oasis alumni Lushy performing a memorable self-penned tribute to the event called “Tiki Oasis” which premiered live at Tiki Oasis 10 and was simultaneously released on a limited CD by Lushy, and Herb (Herb Albert and The Tijuana Brass tribute) performing a unreleased rousing version of “Tijuana Taxi” in honor of Tiki Oasis 11’s “South of the Border” theme ! This record is pressed in an edition of 1000 on opaque marble color vinyl (each record has swirls and splotches of white, black and other colors mixed in thus each individual record is unique) and comes with a download coupon for free digital versions of both songs.

ABOUT VITOS
Vito’s is an iconic restaurant and lounge located on First Hill. Opened in 1953, it has a history rich in cocktail culture, organized crime and east coast, family style Italian food.

In April of 2010, Jeff Scott and Greg Lundgren purchased this Seattle institution and began a major restoration of the space. Their goal is to return Vito’s to the glamor and style of the 1950s, respect its colorful past and set the course for a 21st-century resurrection. Over the years the club has fallen into disrepair and poor alterations. They have replaced the dance floor with a performance space centered around a grand piano, with lounge singers, jazz trios and Lynchian curiosities that will dazzle and entertain into the early morning.

ABOUT DUNSHEE HOUSE
Dunshee House is a non-profit organization that envisions individuals in communities connected by the shared values of health and well being, personal development, and compassionate support of one another. They work to build community and cultivate powerful, healthy lives by providing emotional support and personal development services to those affected by HIV/AIDS, the Queer communities, and those who love them.

ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Lushy concocts a refreshing pop style that blends bossa beats with elements of lounge, surf, new wave, ska and sixties pop to create their own distinctive intercontinental sound…think Jetsons on Vespas with swizzle sticks and distortion pedals. The 10 piece Lushy features horns: trumpet, trombone, and various saxophones plus a bevy of instrumenta rollicka: flute, synth, keys, melodica, guitars and the inevitable bongos, congas, tambourine, maracas, and shakers-martini and otherwise… this is progressive cocktail pop! Lounge-y and danceable fun with special guest Lynval Golding of The Specials!

Purty Mouth is Seattle’s camped-up country-tonk combo: a little Hedwig, a little Hee Haw, a lotta heart. Since 2002, Purty Mouth has been paying honor to the greats of country music, while putting their own special stamp on their blend of country and pop (or as they used to say, ‘countrypolitan’).
