Floetry After Party at Mirrors
Mirrors, 33 New York Avenue N.E. Washington, DC 20002

This was the official Floetry After Party after their performance at Love, the second date of their Remixed Tour with Amanda Diva replacing Natalie "The Floacist" Stewart.


I was not able to take a pen in, so all of this is off the top of my head.
