Dance Party USA [To Do]newVideoPlayer("/todogirls_def.flv", 506, 423,""); We all have our own unique ways to unwind after a particularly long work day. Some of you like to hit the gym to do some cardio, some of you just go home to play with your kids and others prefer smoking a bowl before a marathon session of video gaming. However, if you're Molls, none of the above are adequately able to soothe the savage beast within. Rather, she's got a secret passion that helps transport her to a place where the drudgery of her daily routine is the furthest thing from her mind. If you want in on her secret (or if you just wanna know what's going on in LA tonight), simply click through and the world is yours! · Xiu Xiu at the Echoplex. · Rod Man at the Comedy and Magic Club. · Measuring Your Own Grave at MOCA. · The Accomplices at the Fountain Theater.
