Eight Gigs: Homegirl Dance Party

Fri., Nov. 20, 9:30 p.m., Dive Bar, free

If a deejay set at Dive Bar called “Homegirl Dance Party” isn't reason enough to get off the couch on a Friday night, consider this: The minds behind the turntables are none other than Sister Crayon. Taking place every third Friday from here on out, the first one kicked off last month with a '90s R&B theme. No word as to what this month's vibe will be, but does it matter? Coming off one of the most exciting releases by a local artist this year with Devoted, a dance party catering to the demographic that had CrazySexyCool on cassette is just another stop on the trail of badassery. 1016 K Street, www.facebook.com/sistercrayon.
