Join the green fairy for a special Halloween buzz at Holographic Universe 9, an all-night dance party at the Royal Peacock Absinthe Lounge, 5290 Arapahoe Avenue in Boulder. From 11 p.m. until 5 a.m., a host of DJs headlined by Buddhabomb will help you get down to a variety of dance styles. Best of all, you can indulge in the once-forbidden pleasure of absinthe until the bar closes at 2 a.m. “The stuff I use is fantastic product. You get this combination of stimulation from the herbs, and it’s a very lucid drunk,” explains the Peacock’s Sebastian Awatramani. “People get very artistic. Taste-wise, you can compare it to ouzo or Pernod, but feeling-wise, nothing is like absinthe.”
Dress up and the party will only cost you $5; forget your costume and it’s a whopping $666! Holographic Universe 9 is open to 21-and-up only, and there will be prizes for costumes and giveaways throughout the night. For more info, call 303-447-1409 or visit www.royalpeacocklounge.com.
