We attended the Cazwell party at M.I.N.C. bar located near the fairgrounds in downtown Dallas (also near the deep ellum district). The party was slow until around 12:30 when people waited in a slow line to get in the door. It was a fabulous mix of people ranging from the straight, curious, and the ultra-gay. There were not as many club kids there as I would expect but we still brought back a few of the club kid memories. This time it was more classy and not as exciting as we expected being big fans of the New York Club scene when it was full of horny club kids.
DJ Sammy Jo spun some great beats featuring the old school club hit girls and boys by blur. We also got to see a performance from three delicious drag queens including the nasty girl. James St. James wore some fabulous hair that was made up of shaving cream if you can tell in the pic below. Just fabulous! He seemed to be full of energy but the party overall was not that exciting. It was nothing like a night out at Club One back in the day or a night at Coliseum in Ft. Lauderdale. Can we say the real party monsters are going unrecognized? Maybe so.
Richie Rich introduced everyone at the beginning of the party and is always a great host. He has been to Minc a few times for parties including when Amanda LePore was there to do a show. Minc is definitely the spot to find some fun in Dallas as it started out as a club ran by the head bartender of the former Club One which was club kid central and the home to many hot raver boys and Abercrombie circuit boys.
The Party Monster party that hit Minc was definitely a fun event but it needed more “nasty” and more “crazy” to make it a real party monster pleaser. Maybe in the future the parties will get a little wilder. Or maybe people are just not ready for the real party!
