With all the parties going on in Kingston last weekend, ‘Stush: The Paparazzi Edition’ got lost among the bigger patron drawing events.
Held at the Pantry, New Kingston last Saturday night, when THE STAR arrived at the venue minutes to midnight there was only a handful of patrons rocking to the music. As the night progressed patrons trickled in but the venue was nowhere near to being full by 2 a.m. when THE STAR left. DJs Christoff and Dre, from Renaissance Disco, played for the majority of the night finally giving over the turntables to DJ Sanjay from Coppershot at 2 a.m. At midnight Christoff and Dre held an oldies vibe with Beenie Man preaching about having ’nuff gal’, Nadine Sutherland sang about Action and Sean Paul ‘infiltrated’ the party.

It is now official. Partying and vibes are akin to Twisted Spiritz. The all-inclusive event, staged retro style on the Palisadoes Go-Kart Strip on Saturday, was a blast.
The venue was set up in a trendy fashion with a central bar catering to the patrons’ selective drinking habits. Other bars, which also served up an abundance of alcohol, littered the venue. The lighting was first class, barring a set in the parking area that shone ‘blinding’ lights at approaching patrons.
Foundation
When THE STAR team arrived at the venue at minutes to midnight, there was only a handful of patrons on the inside. The Renaissance selectors were building the foundation for the party and the Tropical Rhythm girls kept the ‘early birds’ refreshed.
The selectors, for the most part, acknowledged the night’s theme ‘Go Retro’; however, there were times when they ’stepped out of the box’ and still managed to please the audience.
