HOT Festival kickoff party!
Hosted by the hottest downtown girlfriend duo, Anti-Diva’s Liz Liguori and Jessie Mann. With their specialty drinks, sexy bartending flair, and famous LGBTQ (and straight!) following, Liz and Jesse have made Anti-Diva the Dixon Place party to be 'scene' at. The pair always has several surprise performers, smoking DJ's, and a super cool vibe in this regular party that has attracted the arts and performance crowd from all over the city. The friendly crowd enjoys delicious artisanal cocktails with premium drinks and organic ingredients and there's always the DP special of $3 PBR. Anti-Diva is the coolest place to end up after the annual Dyke March!

SCOTT MATTHEW
Scott is one of the very few musicians who—well, how may we say this—strips with his music, who dissects himself to reveal his very innards with great parsimony. His voice cries without whining. His songs accuse without soliciting pity. Scott Matthew’s music has truth and exigency. And he forms this into songs that are purely magnetic, that expose an honest beauty and sorrow, allowing listeners to take and feel part of the experience.
