I know you are, but what am I?

With the recent death of Mr. John Hughes, it seems like an appropriate tribute to suit up in your denim jacket, "Hang in There" tees, and slap bracelets and dance to '80's tunes. In fact, I'm pretty sure there is no better tribute (unless you attempt to create a girl in your bedroom while wearing undergarments on your head). Helping you achieve this feat is Club Firestone and their totally outrageous 1984 party.

 Get sucked back in time with band The TransAms and DJ Kitty Bat as they play classic '80's hits that would get even the biggest naysayer to dance ala Molly in The Breakfast Club.

Whether you prefer black clothing and The Smiths or you want to sing all the words to The GoGo's, there is a dance floor with your name on it.

If leather and hair metal is your thing, you can find the party upstairs where Turbo Love Machine will be spinning 80's metal hits from men who knew what it meant to wear a good shade of rouge. Even the new wave kids get their own room as new romantic and new wave hits are spun in The Den. And since the '80's would've been nothing without a moonwalk or two, there will be a tribute to the King of Pop for all to enjoy.

Scour your closet, or your local Goodwill, for some '80's gear because your outfit guarantees you free admission. A brain, an athlete, a basket case, a criminal? It doesn't matter, this party is 18 and up for everybody and starts at 9 pm.

 

For more info: Firestone is located at 578 N. Orange Ave.Orlando, FL 32801 407.872.0066
