If there was anywhere you needed to be if you were looking for a place to celebrate in Seattle tonight, New Year's Eve, 31st December 2010, it was right here, right now - Atom.
'One Year Anniversary Event' was what was written on the invites and the venue managed to hold a decent-sized crowd that still left enough space for the guests to breathe and move around freely. Said decent-sized crowd mostly dressed in accordance with the theme: Cabaret - black and white suits, bow ties and polished shoes, canes and cigars, black vests and crimson lipstick, skimpy black pieces and stockings, boots and high heels, feathers and cigarettes, and almost everyone had a stylish hat to top off their outfits.
'Open Bar' is what keeps the crowds coming and going between the bar and the tables and booths, or the dance floor. The music is at a volume acceptable to both the dancers and the other patrons more interested in mingling and drinking.
Upstairs in the strip club it's business as usual. Where everyone has dressed up for the party downstairs, the girls up here have dressed down for the occasion. Whether you're missing out on much being upstairs instead of downstairs is... well, it's debatable; she's trying very hard to convince you to stay - it's more fun up here with her and you're pretty sure she can't be wrong about that.
There is still room for a few more patrons before the doors close so if you still haven't arrived, you've got a few minutes left to make your way over here. The cover charge is a donation of as much or as little as you like; drop it in the box by the entrance as you make your way inside. All proceeds go toward charity, as do the proceeds of the ongoing art and antiques auction (bidders are, however, on an invite-only basis) that is taking place in one of the back rooms.
