If you hold your arms above your head the blood will rush to your biceps and make them look bigger. Girls, don't fall for this.

Make your way up the stairs to the third floor above Grim's on Capitol Hill and emerge into The Woods.
DJing from the rafters.
We'll give him the benefit of the doubt and guess the shirt shrunk in the wash.
Drinks for everyone!
Rolando Hipolito is a regular at The Woods for the great dance music.
No heels for this girl, she came prepared to dance.
By frequenting shadowy stairwells  and constantly looking surprised, he manages to shroud himself in mystery.
Why the hell is our picture being taken?Yay, picture!!This is nice.
Animal print tops are last year, leopard print legs are far sexier.
Already having a swell time.
Friday night was the CD release party for DJ Wesley Holmes.
Drinking out of cups...or, jars.
Horny lights, made from antlers by Christopher Williams.
The reality outside the window is killing the forest vibe.
Benjamin Sheffield, promoter and confirmed dance-a-holic. What an affliction.
Hot and sweaty.
Don't let the name fool you, The Woods is more than an inner-city cabin.
Entrepreneur and owner of The Woods Laura Olson.
Dying to get back to the dance floor before the shirt decides to become more than off-the-shoulder.
Free CD's aren't a bad perk.
The ever-suave Mr. Holmes.

DJ Wesley Holmes’ CD release party at The Woods (upstairs at Grims) this past Friday gave Seattleites a reason to dress up and get down. The party featured the latest mixes from Holmes as well as Northwest favorites Brian Lyons, Mr. Gene Lee, Jeromy Nail, Jason Tokita and Erin O’Connor all spinning dance-inducing house music. With names like these in an electro-starved city, who can resist getting hot, sweaty, and lost in The Woods?Photos by Catherine Anstett.Published on August 1, 2011
