Posted by writer Casey Morris, a graduate of Auburn University with a degree in Mass Communications and an avid follower of the Atlanta Underground Club Scene, the article does a great job summarizing what all is in store for attendees to this costumed, crazy event, to be held at The Shelter Atlanta, from 9 p.m.-3 a.m. (21+). Give the story a read for yourself online HERE. For those planning to attend, please note we are expecting a very high turnout so arrive early to ensure easier parking (doors open at 9 p.m.)

When March 23rd rolls around, a 'Trifecta Triple Threat' with DJ Nemesis, DJ Ghost and VJ Anthony will keep the energy high as the dance floor will have no boundaries. Go-Go dancers Angie Starr and Foxy Roulette will also be feeling the energy from both the music and the crowd as the evening rolls on. Read more about all of our Entertainment HERE.

Dancers Angie Starr & Foxy Roulette added to INFESTATION 2 lineup for March 23rd

With just over three weeks till INFESTATION 2 hits Atlanta, we're excited to announce that, in addition to having three of the city's best DJs lined up, we now have Go-Go dancers Angie Starr and Foxy Roulette on board to help both entertain and keep the bodies moving on March 23rd.

Angie can follow the rises and drops in a song like liquid, incooperating different styles of dance into the way she moves...and over the years Foxy has developed her own style of dancing and performance art. TEASER: Word on the street is these two beautiful vixens will be unleashing their inner female supervillains at INFESTATION 2 (think two of Batman's sexiest...enemies).

To learn more about both Angie and Foxy, as well as DJ Nemesis, DJ Ghost and VJ Anthony, please visit the INFESTATION 2 Entertainment Page HERE.
