Who: Erik von Brandt & OPEN
What: PARTY THREAD. If Erik has to turn thirty, heâs doing it with a bang.
Where: The Capitol Club, Los Angeles, CA
When: Forward dated to Wednesday, November 25; evening
Warnings: Letâs go with âexpect anythingâ.
Erik wasnât a complicated man.
Actually, that was a lie. Erik was a very complicated man, but he did a good job of pretending that he wasnât. It helped that the superficial layer of rock star out looking for a good time wasnât completely off base, even if it wasnât all there was to him. For the night, though, it was the only part that mattered, because Erik had invited anyone who wanted to come to a party at the Capitol Club, and he was hoping that the turnout wouldnât be disappointing. He was also hoping for at least some nice legs in short skirts, but hey, heâd live if he didnât get everything he wanted for his birthday. Look, it didnât hurt to ask, did it? He wasnât forcing anyone into a miniskirt.
He might have pregamed a little before heâd headed to the club, but it had only been a few beers. Good, strong, German beer, but still just beer. Just enough to get him started before he stuck with whatever selection of beer the club itself might have had. Hey, he didnât remember what a place had on tap, from visit to visit, especially if he hadnât made it there in a while. It wasnât long after the place had opened for the night that he walked in the door, grinning and ready to be the life of the party, as soon as anybody started showing up. His bandmates, of course, were expected to be there, because Erik would give them shit about it for a few months, until he came across something else to give them shit for, if they didnât show up. You might think that wasnât much, but Erik was pretty good at being a giant pain in the ass, if he really wanted to be. It was a gift.
Just to get the night kicked off on the right foot, Erik started off by buying a round for all of the early birds that were there with him, and raising his pint glass of dark ale to them all. âTo thirty, the year where youâre supposed to magically be a real adult!â He didnât stick around at the bar long, though. He had people to mingle with, and someone whose drinks heâd already promised to take care of for the night. Erik von Brandt was a man of his word.
