Saturday's Lowdown: The Final Whomp

Well, we're not going to act like it hasn't been a rough week. If you're up to trying to have a Saturday, we'll point out that it's Arts Alive tonight, meaning there are a handful of Eureka events hopeful you'll stop in.

The sentimental favorite? As we've mentioned previously on LoCO, after five years of whomptarifficness, Nocturnum will close. Club owner Gil Miracle recently made the announcement via the establishment’s Facebook page:

“It is with a heavy heart that we announce that Nocturnum will be closing its doors for good on January 9th. It has been an awesome five years and we are very grateful for the good times,” Miracle wrote.

Before the front doors are locked, Nocturnum will hold a"Close Party" on Saturday, with a Where’s Queer Bill event featuring DJ Razorburns. (Note there is one more Whomp Whomp Wednesday ... this Wednesday.)
