The evening started off with a small mile walk from the downtown Holiday Inn to Club Rumba where “Lipgloss” - Denver’s hottest Brit pop night springs to life every friday night. Free cover before 10 pm, and $2 gin wells and PBR’s …. its a night of good affordable fun. Arriving at 9:30, there were only a dozen or so starting to mingle, and by 11:00 the dancefloor was crowded … a good VJ display of imagery started the night in accompaniment of some of our favorite Brit pop classics. |

There were a few misquides as a guest DJ ventured away from Brit Pop with some hip-hop pop; but short-lived as they returned to our British alternative flavor … glam, britpop, indie, and rock … trancing into 80’s funk - the dancefloor and stage was wild demonstrating Denver’s competition to the now-defunct famed Luvafair of Vancouver, BC and Neighbours 80’s in Seattle, Washington. This has been the first ‘happening’ britpop night I’ve been to in the states … a musical venue much needed in the land of the red/white/and blue. If you’re ever in Denver on a friday night, it would be an ecstatic loss to miss this night. Staff of La Rumba were incredible and while the drinks were weak on the national average, they were certainly affordable. The DJ’s were fantastic and addressed inquiries and requests quickly and very friendly - knowing their stuff, I’d recommend them for any event. The Denver3.com. Rating: 5 stars out of 5.
