Akbar spirals back in time on the first Saturday of every month when Mario Diaz takes over Silver Lake’s most beloved neighborhood bar and turns it into a dance party revival of sorts. The vibe is pure '70s hedonism, the music is an eclectic mix of dance hits from then to now, and the crowd is made up of a wave of contemporary eastside hipsters. Think hairy muscled boys on boxes wearing fishnet panty hose, thongs, bowler caps, glittery sky-high pumps and little else, Erasure’s “Oh L’Amour” playing in the background and a friendly crowd in a packed space where attitude is at a minimum and good times are on full blast.
