At the Town Run Brewery in Shepherdstown, in honor of Prince, because of his passing, they threw a last minute celebration of him. It was definitely interesting to go to. There were a lot of people there when I arrived, and even more coming in. People were everywhere once I got inside; dancing, at the bar, out on the terrace, at the tables, at the arcade games, etc.
A good quarter of the people at the event were on the dance floor, really going at it; some were pretty good, others not so much. Everyone was really into though, and it didn't matter if you were bad or good. I didn't dance though, not really my thing, at least at bars. The atmosphere was bustling overall.
The bar itself was pretty well surrounded by people, mostly conversing, and on the terrace people were in groups, and on the outside part too, where they have a few tables. What's interesting is that the drinking wasn't excessive seemingly, and generally isn't at the Town Run, in comparison to other bars. People get drunk, don't get me wrong, but it's not as overt. The atmosphere is pretty friendly there in general, and on this night in particular it was even more so.
I didn't end up staying til the end, but left to go to a friend's house. While I was there though, it was interesting to see how people took the death of a music icon, and how they in each of their own ways, were celebrating his music and honoring him.
