If you haven’t been to Carlito’s Bollywood Night at Cous Cous and coming to the Ha

If you haven’t been to Carlito’s Bollywood Night at Cous Cous and coming to the Hat Factory for the first later this month, than you’re missing out. Bollywood Night has earned the reputation as one of the most fun albeit silly dance nights in RVA. Hundreds of people singing, dancing, and chanting to the Bollywood hits for hours. Doesn’t sound like your thing? Did I mention the amount of beautiful Indian girls and their handsome guy friends. Something for everyone. Give it a try.

Check out the facebook fan page HERE and see you out on the dance floor.

“This is *just* a mixtape — the mixing here is really basic.. I wasnt able to do as much as I would have liked to on the creative side but I thought it would be nice to give people a taste of the styles they might hear at Bollywood Night. There are some fun surprises in these two sets. There are two Bollywood Nights coming up this month: Bollywood Night at Cous Cous on Oct 9th and Bollywood Night at Hat Factory on Oct 23.” (Yes, it actually was recorded to a cassette tape) – DJ Carlito

In 2005, I created RVA Magazine, and I'm still at the helm as its publisher. From day one, it’s been about pushing the “RVA” identity, celebrating the raw creativity and grit of this city. Along the way, we’ve hosted events, published stacks of issues, and, most importantly, connected with a hell of a lot of remarkable people who make this place what it is.
