But for those who are 21 and up and need something to do tonight, there will be live music at local restaurant and lounge, Our House. Cold Shot will be singing iconic dance hits of the ’70s, ’80s, ’90s and now. This means that there will be plenty of reminiscing to your Britney Spears and NSYNC days.
