A good friend link me to this blog site and i couldnt believe what i read. guess it all makes sense when they asked me to change the music format when i used to dj there but instead of changing the format, i quit instead...

Ethnic Cleansing at Slip Innsays..

"Ethnic Cleansing at Slip Inn says.. 1:44 PM

Just a head's up... the new owners at the Slip Inn in Dallas held a meeting last week and told their staff that they want to "thin out" the contingency of African-American people who patronize their club. THIS IS NO JOKE.

First they told the DJs to stop playing hip-hop (I swear to god they were playing Foreigner's "Urgent" when I dropped in the other night), and now they've told the door staff to make up excuses about a "dress code" whenever an African-American male comes to the front door.

Hip-hop music and African-American people made the Slip Inn a popular place to hang out. The new owners seem to think this dive bar would be better as a "members only" club with a red velvet rope and bottle service. I suggest that not only we boycott the Slip Inn, but encourage others to boycott their other club Vickery Park as well.

Again, this is no joke. Racism is alive and well at the Slip Inn.

wtf. that's jacked.

I used to love that place on thursdays. I don't know why you'd take a perfectly good dive bar and fuck it up with bottle service mania.

It's a dive bar. Why is anyone fighting to get in there?

St. Stalin the Apathetic · 07-23-08, 03:40 PM

what kind of business was the bar doing on those nights?

what were the till rings?

djredeye · 07-23-08, 03:42 PM

well, you know...since those new guys took over they've been trying to ruin it from the begining and change it to some "classy" joint. They're trying to get it ready for the big Henderson Ave explosion of douchery thats about to happen. some guys are opening a place on that little island in between Barcadia and Slip Inn as well....and you should see them...whoa! Doucheorama!! They were quoted as saying they were gonna bring "the really cool people" to the area. Watch out!
But i totally believe what was posted earlier, after all, this IS Texas. There was a big to-do there this weekened (to-do=fight) i believe. So maybe they're wanting to clean it up, albeit going about it by profiling isnt the way to do it

personally, since i like to run social experiments...i'd like to come up there with the most nicely dressed, well enunciated black people and see what happens.

sorry bad joke.

St. Stalin the Apathetic · 07-23-08, 03:46 PM

I'm inclined that color matters a great deal here.... I just suspect the color that the owners care about is not black, white, purple or blue..... but GREEN

travis · 07-23-08, 03:47 PM

that place used to be so fucking cool. those Defend Dallas shirts are legendary.
