Things I'm currently jocking…
Free ish… We have tix here and will be giving away some on twitter (add @leighfeldman3) to win tickets to Wiz Khalifa (Fri), Devin Philips (Fri), Menomena (Sat), entry for 4 to Mr. Lif (Sat) and a bracelet for the Where Life Begins Festival (all weekend)! Wanna win any of them? Forward this email to a friend, have them write us asking to join the group and we'll enter you both in a drawing to win — or you can find us on facebook at facebook.com/LifeisaPartyFB to get tickets, music and info on weekly events.
Free music ish… Speaking of Mr. Lif, check out his ‘I Heard It Today' Megamix Mixtape. Strictly for fans of hip hop! http://www.mediafire.com/?jzmkyolwd5z#
More Awesome ish… This Saturday LifeisaParty turns 2! Well, technically we turned 2 at the end of August, but we are celebrating with another awesome party this weekend where the first hour of drinks are on us! Yes, from 9:30 to 10:30 on Saturday at the Crown Room drinks are FREE! Plus you get to enjoy the sounds of Philly's Phunkestra, Doc Adam and super special guest Mr. Lif! Start your night here, end your night here or spend your night here — it will surely be fun!
Life is a party, everyone is just waiting to be invited.
See you all out and about! Leigh Feldman
