It’s that time again! Lush Rush – Spring Edition! Everything is just better in the spring, the days are longer which make people stay out longer, the temperatures are rising causing everybody to wear less clothes. It’s just a fantastic time of the year! The program we have lined up for you for the upcoming week is pretty awesome if I may say so myself. This will be my 8th Lush Rush and I am still super excited about it!
Achievement game: Every event provides you with an opportunity to gain points in the race to become the winner of Lush Rush Week Fall 2012. What does it take to win? Party skills! With something going on every day, it’s going to require commitment. Commitment to party. What does the winner get, you ask. 1000 rmb bar tab to spend anyway you want at Lush!! Yes, competition will be tough, but don’t despair. Even if you don’t win the tab, you can still get a prize. One of the famous I (heart) WU T-shirts will be yours if you just get 55 points or above. That’s worth fighting for, right? I’ll provide you with scorecard along with your first points. Don’t lose your card! If you do, you’ll have to start over. Your card is personal. No combining cards. That would be cheating – and nobody likes a cheater .
Program and points are as follows:
Monday is the City Weekend kickoff party at Lush. It’s our Martini night, even cheaper than normally. 15 rmb for a martini between 6pm and midnight. To get your points for this event you need to buy a martini during happy hour (8-10pm) and you have earned your first 5 points.
Tuesday at Pyro will be one of the nights you’ll keep talking about for a long time. It’s SNAP Adventures’ Power Hour. ONE shot of beer EVERY minute for an HOUR. Easy enough? That’s what they all say. Until they try it that is. We continue with Centurion, same deal but for another 40 minutes. So totally 1 shot every minute for 100 minutes! Good luck. This evening you have the chance to get 20 points.
Wednesday is our legendary Pub Quiz, yet again sponsored by Plastered 8. Meaning in addition to the normal prizes you can win some of those funny t-shirts. Last time people were so excited to get one, that shirts were flying around the room! You had to have been there. Since competition is bound to be fierce, we give you 5 points just for participation and both 1st, 2nd and 3rd place will earn additional 15 points each. After sitting down for the whole quiz, I think it’s fair to say we need to stretch those legs. DJ Juan will be playing at Pyro and I for one will be on the dancefloor. Hope some of you are joining me so I don’t look too silly out there.
Thursday is the only night with something happening at both Lush and Pyro. At Lush there will be delicious home brewed beer from Great Leap Brewery and discounted prices on our normal imported beer. At Pyro, the battle continues with Beer Pong. Again you get 5 points for joining and winners will get 15 points. No extra points for 2nd place, but there will be additional prizes this night. Mashup Sports and Social are official sponsors of Beer Pong this week and will be offering fantastic prizes to both 1st and 2nd place in each bracket! Trust me, it’s worth winning!
Friday night Lush comes alive with Tavey Lean and the Solid Gold Dream Machine on stage. These guys will make sure you start the weekend the right way. Come in early to make sure you and your friends can get a table! And of course, be ready to dance!
Saturday we celebrate my birthday the only way we know how! With an over the top crazy 555 party! That’s right. You will get 5rmb draft beer, 5rmb shots (whiskey, vodka or of course my favorite shot: tequila) and 5rmb mixed drinks! If that isn’t enough to get you to come make this a birthday I’ll remember, then Korey’s music should be! DJ Korey is prepped and ready to get you all moving on the dance floor!
Sunday ST. PATRICK’S DAY! What better way to round up this Lush Rush? 15rmb Guinness all day long! As well as Lucky Jello Shots! All of that in combination with our great Open Mic! Get on stage and get those final points, one performance will get you 15 points! It’s the perfect way to come down after battling all week. Who am I kidding? Calm down? We party on! Yen has provided us with some tickets for their White Party, and we are giving you the chance to win them during Open Mic! No, you don’t have to sign. This will be something else.
In addition to the points mentioned above you can get 5 points for somehow managing to get yourself one of the classic black I (heart) Wu wristbands. And wearing it! There is also 10 points if you can figure out the secret of Lush Rush. And don’t forget to grab/steal one of the orange wristbands made specifically for this Lush Rush!
