You’re a pared-down kind of person: jeans and black pumps are your
weekday wardrobe staples, a stiff vodka martini is your go-to cocktail,
and your handbag contains just the necessities. Sound familiar? Then
something tells us you’ll be all over Simply Thursdays tonight at Gypsy Bar (116 Boylston Street, Boston, 617.482.7799, www.gypsybarboston.com).
Though resident DJ Influence’s Vegas-style mash-ups of rock, hip-hop,
and dance are far from simple, the event brings Thursday nights back to
DJ-dance-drinks basics and offers a place for the 21-plus crowd to
unwind after a long week (or get wound up for a weekend of long
nights). Doors open at 10 p.m., and you can stay until 2 a.m. Mention Stuff@night when arriving before midnight and admission is free; otherwise, the cover charge is $15. It’s that simple.
