This just in from Will the Thrill:
THE CONGO LOUNGE
5422 College (Rockridge District)510.339.7960

This Friday, May 23, they are having an OPENING NIGHT PARTY till about 3 in
the morning. SPREAD THE WORD VIA ALL YOUR NETWORKS - OAKLAND HAS A BRAND NEW
OLD SCHOOL TIKI BAR! And they want and need your help!

This has been open for a while but dig it: they just got their liquor
license and now they have a full bar of exotic cocktails AND the decor is
perfect PLUS they play authentic exotica music and 50s/60s movies on the TV
behind the bar - meaning they are true enthusiasts! No "Survivor" bullshit
here!

I guess the Von Stroheims picked the right time to movie to Oaktown....

Monica and I already have plans to attend the Rat Pack show at the Lake
Merritt Hotel that night, but we plan to swing by there afterwards to join
in the festivities.
