Zack and Scene killed it last night at 2080s. Which is nothing new really, but last night’s insanely awesome hiphop/’80s dance party at the War Room sported a Miami Vice theme that upped the totally-rad factor by several notches. The show was playing on the flat screens and projections over the bar and the dancefloor, the perfect accompaniment to the tropical-feeling, bamboo-flocked roof deck and the hot-as-hell dancefloor. Scene even thew in a slow-jam set for the lovers in the house. As usual, the crowd was as mixed and stylish as it gets in Seattle. One dude was rocking the white-on-white cotton jacket and pants look. You go, Sonny Crocket. If you haven’t been to the best Wednesday night throwdown in the city, you’re missing out.

The Stranger
Compared to those classic hits, contemporary Top-40 hip-hop stands up to scrutiny about as well as a tool shed in a tornado. But hook up some "Cold Lampin' With Flavor" and I'll be on the table so fast it's like I'd been born and raised shaking my butt up there like a pasty Jewish Shakira. Which is why 2080's night at The War Room is the best place to blow off all your midweek steam: DJs Fourcolorzack and Scene don't just play '80s jams, they break out the '80s jams you forgot about, would never hear on the radio (unless it's KEXP), or never even heard in the first place. These guys are experts at sifting through, selecting, and remixing should-be classics to keep the party hopping. And it is hopping, even though it's on a Wednesday, when most people would rather stay home.
