TWO popular venues, kicking-off at Midtown’s ultra hip

There’s a new night on Saturdays at 6º Lounge and
the premiere is this Saturday, the 10th. MD Entertainment started
out doing small events like bachelor and bachelorette parties,
but rapidly built a strong following and they soon hooked up
with Escobar and worked with the promotion team there. Now they
have moved to 6º Lounge on Saturday nights and created PRIVLEGEbar.
PRIVILEGEbar is being created to bring the “who’s
who” crowd back to downtown. The night is going to be aimed
at the Houston elite. This is sure to be something like downtown
hasn’t seen in a long time. December 10th is when PRIVLEGEbar
débuts, so get out to 6º to see and be seen this
weekend.
