LICK IT!
Eagle’s busy with Onyx, SF Footmen, Daddy Pop (it’s like the opposite of a lollipop, the more you lick it, the bigger it gets), and Pagano provides the beats for “Obscure.” It’s Pop Royal Tea at Hunters from 5-9 p.m., as the club salutes Gaga and Dua. Melissa St. John reigns over her kingdom tonight at Roosters, and Ramrod has DJ Saturday Sweat. Lucky’s Gay Bar has sexy go-go boys tonight and DJ Frank-O to stir them up.
Eliad Cohen takes the Manor “Into the Future” to celebrate his birthday. Really? You’d think he wants to take it into his past!

MAMA, CAN YOU HEAR ME?

SPANISH 101
Jueves is Spanish for Wednesday, and Rooster’s is holding a Latin dance party. Juevos is Spanish for eggs, but it also has another meaning. I won’t tell you, but there will be plenty of them at Rooster’s on Wednesday.
There’s a Just for Fans dance contest at LeBoy. The ad on the bar’s website reads “Open to all men 21+ with proper.” A proper what isn’t mentioned.
