Editorial Review

Washington music parlor attains cool creds on par with Paris, London, New York. Plush velvet, varnished wood, roaring fireplaces, and effortless style mean you've arrived without even trying. Except you're wearing $500 shoes and your bar tab's not far behind. Famed birthplace of Thievery Corporation who you just might hear live. Devotees gather to worship, eager for whatever strange drum gets beat on. Hipsters-come-lately wonder how they can buy shares of the cool.
