QC After Dark / News Another EpiCentre opening...
Posted By Brittney Cason on Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 11:14 AM
Tonight is the Grand Opening of PJ’s Coffee & Lounge.
To me PJ’s is the acronym for pajamas, but to Charlotte it’s the newest edition to the EpiCentre following the recent opening of Fleming’s Steakhouse.
(Speaking of Fleming’s – PJ’s is a little hard to find within the epic EpiCentre, so in order to help navigate your nightlife, I’ll go ahead an specify that it’s behind Fleming’s on the first floor).
PJ’s Coffee & Lounge is a place to go to wake up, chill out, and wine down – at least according to them. For someone can appreciate a coffee shop as much as a lounge, I went to check out this curious combination last night.
But the bar wasn’t so much combined as it was divided – half a coffee bar equip with a glass case of muffins and scones, and then the other half a wine stocked bar. Imagine if Starbucks and Press, Dolce Vita and Smelly Cat in NoDa, or even the two Dean& Deluca in Phillip’s Place were to have a merger….kinda like that.

News Musicians at Republican campaign
Posted By Anita Overcash on Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 2:29 PM
Anyone should be able to understand rock star and Democratic supporter Jon Bon Jovi's disapproval with Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin using his band's song "Who Says You Can't Go Home," during her political rallies. But, he's not the only one ashamed that the Republican party is using his song. Other musicians, including Heart and Jackson Browne have also faced Republican John McCain's campaign using their tracks as well. And they don't like it. Read more about it here.
