Liberace manner

Liberace Penthouse, 7461 Beverly Blvd, Los Angeles
Thanks to e-mail technology, I found out about this special event: “The Liberace Penthouse Party”. The apartment had an art deco style. The door knobs were oddly big, there were many mirrors on the walls, and there was a small swimming-pool near the living room with a spectacular city view. This place was perfect for the occasion: a party. There was a bar with all kinds of alcoholic drinks. Bartenders served free alcoholic shots (called a dirty queen) for an hour. It didn’t take long to see the quiet crowd transformed in to a loud one. I loved the metamorphosis. It is like watching a movie. Liberace was known for his flamboyant outfits and tonight his spirit was alive. The drunks showed style, their fashion wasn’t “stealable”, but indeed it was unique. Carlos, my friend, drank at least eight shots. He was a bit clumsy. He dropped his cigarette on the floor, spilled the ashtray all over and kept repeating himself. I laughed at him, Carlos was self-deprecating. After “the free shots hour”, there was one more free alcoholic drink, this time, any kind of alcoholic beverage. Carlos ordered a Gin n Tonic. As the night progressed, we talked about the crazy parties we used to hang out at. I can still see myself going to many other parties with him. He is a friend who I always felt comfortable with. We reminisced for a while. A photographer took pictures, and so did I. At this penthouse, the music and laughs got louder and due to Carlos drunkenness we departed. I was the designated driver. I thanked the party organizers for the happy time. At the exit, there were free gifts (t-shirts), the logo was: F_ _ K the Queen. I probably will re-gift it.
