OPEN - Q-Tip's Friday now with DJ Gravy and legendary guests!
OPEN, the invincible Friday night presented by resident DJ and hip-hop polymath Q-Tip has been shaking asses and winning awards ("Best DJ Night" - PAPER MAG) since its inception a year and a half ago, and we decided party people were a half a year overdue for a "thank you." So we've stacked the weekly bill with invincible headlining DJ's, including the temporal genius Questlove, [edit]urban-electro prodigy A-Trak , underground staple Stretch Armstrong [/edit], and the key innovator of turntable protocol Grandmaster Flash. Leading the pack this Friday will be DJ Scratch, who has created keynote beats for the likes of EPMD, Busta Rhymes, LL Cool J and many more. Also, we've refined our reggae game in the basement with the help of DJ Gravy, making Friday night at Santos the ultimate destination for Carribean sound as well. Joining him are Max Glazer and Micro Don, who both hold down dance floors with unmatched finesse. In the words of Rakim, "This is how it should be done."

TONY CLIFTON and the KATRINA KISS MY ASS ORCHESTRA

Few vocal performers have achieved the level of acclaim and longevity enjoyed by Tony Clifton. Discovered by the Hollywood elite in the late 1960’s, Clifton soon became a worldwide sensation and beloved television personality. From David Letterman, to Rodney Dangerfield, to Merv Griffin, to the Muppets, nearly every mover and shaker in the entertainment has sought out a Tony Clifton collaboration or performance. His velvety and sensuous voice, charming banter and warm stage presence has delighted high-profile audiences in lounges, concert halls, theaters and stadiums.
A great many obstacles came Tony Clifton’s way after his rise to fame, including public falling outs with Jerry Lawler, Dinah Shore, Andy Kaufman, and others who attempted to use his name to bolster their own careers. However, Clifton fought off all adversity and remains the king of lounge singers into the 21st Century. At Santos Party House he will be joined by the Katrina Kiss My Ass Orchestra, a full big band ensemble that does soulful justice to the best in standards. Get ready to be dazzled by Tony Clifton!
