<p>On January 28th everything changed&#8230;.</p>
<p>The predictable became the unpredictable&#8230;</p>
<p>The old became the new&#8230;</p>
<p>Finally&#8230; Friday Night came alive in downtown Calgary.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/#!/album.php?aid=41411&amp;id=108078972558278">Check Out the Facebook Gallery Here!<br />
</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>West Restaurant &amp; Bar is proud to present</strong></p>
<p><strong>REWIND FRIDAYS</strong></p>
<p>Unwind at REWIND every Friday Night with DJ&#8217;s Rob Faust &amp; Pasta.<br />
Immerse yourself in Disco, Retro, Funk, Soul, House, &amp; Top 40</p>
<p>BE THERE&#8230;or BE SQUARE.<br />
__________</p>
<p><strong>DJ Rob Faust</strong><br />
Faust began making his saucy mark on the local DJ scene in the 90’s through the One Yellow Rabbit and Green Fools Theatres. After a chance encounter with Sideshow Sid, they quickly discovered their mutual musical genius, and were the first to launch all night Funk’n’Soul events in downtown Calgary. Instituting “Electric Company” on CJSW, Faust went on to start and establish two more ‘decidedly vintage-flavored dance nights’ at Hifi and The Bamboo Tiki House. Both nights showcase Faust’s passionate belief that disco, soul, breaks, House, and a little bit of funk-fuelled mayhem can all meld together in one synonymous night, rooted in the past, but with a dedicated nod toward the present and future.</p>
<p>“It’s all inspired by Loft parties in New York, in the early 70’s, they had it all, bands, soul, disco, a ton of funk, anything that would inspire movement. I guess I’m basically combining what I think it might have been like, with the vision of Amsterdam clubs I went to when I spent summers there in the 80’s, where teams of dancers would take the stage and lose their s*** for James Brown, dancing up walls… ”</p>
<p>Whatever the motivation, Rob Faust has been bringing the best out in Fridays and Saturdays, for years &#8211; accessible without cliché, and underground without the clique. We can’t wait to hear Faust break out the flavor, the best of the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, and make the dance floor go crazy for those who appreciate the finely-aged beats of our time!</p>
<p><strong>DJ Pasta</strong><br />
Legendary in his own right. Pasta has played every epic venue, every epic party since the early 90&#8242;s. This man needs no introduction, and will let his skills speak for themselves.</p>
<p>Fabulous people, music, food, and drink will make this the hottest event ticket of the last decade&#8230;.this is one event you cannot afford to miss.</p>
<p>To attend this event plan to arrive early.</p>
<p><strong><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Not since May 2008 have Calgary women young or old, fashion forward or floppy shown such a collective love for a film.</p>
<p><img title="10-05-07_sexInTheCity01_web01" src="http://westrestaurantandbar.com/wp-content/uploads/west/2010/05/10-05-07_sexInTheCity01_web01.jpg" alt="10-05-07_sexInTheCity01_web01" width="570" height="324" /></p>
<p>With the return of Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda and Samantha to the silver screen on Thursday, May 27 for the premier of <em>Sex and the City 2</em>, females north to south are scouring the racks for the perfect outfit, scouting out just the right cosmopolitan recipe and securing their opening night theatre ticket two weeks in advance.</p>
<p>But where to go with one’s gaggle of girlfriends before and after the show?  Consider this your invitation to get Carried away all weekend long at WEST Restaurant and Bar.</p>
<p>Bring your Monolo Blahnik’s, feathered hats and outrageous fashion statements to Calgary’s new hotspot in the Scotia Centre on Friday, May 28 for a fabulous party hosted by BT’s Jill Belland.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-294" title="10-05-07_sexInTheCity01_hosted" src="http://westrestaurantandbar.com/wp-content/uploads/west/2010/05/10-05-07_sexInTheCity01_hosted.jpg" alt="10-05-07_sexInTheCity01_hosted" width="570" height="80" /></p>
<p>Sparkly stiletto giveaways will abound and a portion of every Cosmo purchased will go towards the Alberta Breast Cancer Foundation.</p>
<p>It’s all part of WEST’s new <em>Diva Fridays</em> initiative that finally offers women some serious downtown happy hour specials from 4 to 6 p.m., while allowing them to commit a bit of philanthropy while they’re sipping and socializing.</p>
<p>And not to worry – if we know WEST, chances are the Aiden’s, Steve’s, Smith’s, Harry’s and Mr. Big’s won’t be missing this bash.</p>
<p>See you on SATC2 opening weekend!</p>
