Bacardi threw a pretty wild party when their B-LIVE tour stopped at M2 Ultra Lounge. (I can't keep up with these clubs that keep changing names. I'm still going to call this place the Crobar.) There was a good sized crowd before the DJs got started and both the drinks and energy were flowing.
Everyone was given a bag of tokens that could be exchanged for merchandise (no drinks, unfortunately). There were tote bags, hoodies, posters and silk screened t-shirts (check out the last photo) which were pretty cool party favors.
The BACARDI B-LIVE tour is over for this year but, with this many people coming out to the NYC tour stop, it is inevitable that there will be a B-LIVE '10 tour.

BACARDI B-LIVE Tour Hits NYC Tomorrow Night (June 17th) with DJs AM, Jazzy Jeff, A-TRAK and More (Dance)
Bacardi U.S.A. is sponsoring a 14 city tour that stops in NYC tomorrow night. The tour brings together established DJs with custom-made Bacardi rum cocktails.
At tomorrow night's showcase, the DJs are DJ Jazzy Jeff (yep - this is Will Smith's former partner), DJ AM, Drop The Lime, A-TRAK and Auto Erotique. As for the liquor, "attendees have the opportunity to sample custom-made Bacardi rum cocktails at the BACARDI Bespoke Bar. This premium bar allows for attendees to sample and create their own cocktails with the help of a talented mixologist. These unique and personalized cocktails are made using the freshest ingredients, fruits and flavor combinations."BACARDI B-LIVE will feature a memorable stage and lighting experience that complements the overall theme of the events. Designed by multimedia environment company, Moment Factory, an old-school boom box will illuminate the room and serve as a backdrop for performing music acts. Adding to the visual appeal, renowned illustrators and designers have produced limited edition posters and silk-screen t-shirt designs to create an experience that lives on with attendees long after the event.
Tomorrow night's event takes place at M2 Ultra Lounge (530 W 28th Street) and tickets are $15.00.
In addition to turning up the volume on the music scene, BACARDI B-LIVE will be donating proceeds from the events to the VH1 Save the Music Foundation. This nonprofit organization is dedicated to restoring instrumental music education programs in America’s public schools, and raising awareness about the importance of music as part of each child’s complete education.
