Sat, July 31, Black Tar Caviar

Marilyn’s on K will celebrate its 11th anniversary on Saturday. Since its opening, the downtown club has mastered two worlds. It’s served as a dependable after-work watering hole for professionals in uncomfortable suits, as well as a rockin’ nightclub for partiers and hookup hunters. It has proved an awesome place for drinking too much—or, for the more responsible, to watch and laugh at people who drink too much. Black Tar Caviar will perform its brand of punk rock, along with Walking Spanish and the Snobs. Buy a drink, cheers it up and hook up with a random person on the dance floor. 908 K Street, www.myspace.com/blacktarcaviar.
