So many happenings…

Whoa, we’ve been gettin’ busy over here at Title Town. If you’re gonna be in the Burgh this coming weekend and following week, you should definitely try to come through to some (or all!) of these events.  Here they are:

You know the drill, 5 hours of blister-inducing Northern soul, funk, real R&B, all mixed up in a stiff cocktail for your ever-lovin’ ears.  This month it’s Halloween – we’re doing a costume contest at 11:30 with prizes from Cultures of Soul Records, Daptone Records, Jerry’s Records and limited-run Title Town t-shirts!  Don’t be late, this is gonna be a big one.

Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?

As we approach our 2-year anniversary, it just so happens that TITLE TOWN falls on Halloween weekend. And unless you’ve been living under a gravestone, you know this will be a party.

On Saturday, October 29, prepare for what is sure to be one of the wildest, soul-chilling Halloween dance parties around as Title Town invites Pittsburgh’s trail blazin’ ambassador of Northern SOUL & R&B Justin “Juddy” Hopper (Vipers Soul Club, Soulcialism, Pandemic…) to dust off his box of tricks n’ treats for the dance-floor.

After helping to cement Pittsburgh’s place in the burgeoning nationwide soul scene, we’re super excited to have Juddy back at the Lounge. What to expect: An unholy concoction of blister-inducing Northern soul, dirty-as-hell R&B, and a bit of psychopathic Jump Blues all mixed up in a stiff cocktail for your ever-lovin’ ears.

Life’s too short for mediocre music, so get to the Shadow Lounge where we’ll be slingin’ back vintage dance tunes galore while you pour back libations, dance manically and get sweaty with a bunch of your closest, costumed friends.

This month, expect 5 hours of wickedly rare, yet frightfully danceable soul, funk and R&B records including feel-good classics from SHIRLEY ELLIS, THE MIRACLES, JACKIE WILSON, THE 5 ROYALES, YOUNG JESSIE, THE ARTISTICS and so many more.

Prepare for what is sure to be a feast for all your senses – we’ll have Oktoberfest brews, funky projections on the wall, the Brassero Grill taco truck outside the Lounge, and we’ll be handing out a bunch of prizes including gift certificates, t-shirts, and vinyl records:

COSTUME CONTEST! (around 11:30 PM)
Prizes in each category for:

• Best Overall Costume
• Funkiest Costume
• Sexiest Costume
• Best Mashup Costume

Hands down, there is no better time you’ll have for 5 bucks on a Saturday night!
