Bootie voted "Best Dance Club" in the Readers Poll of the San Francisco Bay Guardian's BEST OF THE BAY 2006!
The Guardian writes: "Dancing to a catchy song at a club just isn't enough for our readers. They want to dance to two catchy songs — at the same time. Such is the alluring magic of mashups, and of club Bootie at DNA Lounge ... Bootie loves to fuck with pop culture, two songs at a time, every second Friday of the month." You can read more here.
