08/03/09Weekend Photos: LuxloungeGold Coasters scored a new spot to sip this weekend, when the neighborhood standby Luxbar launched its new second-floor, Saturday-nights-only hangout, Luxlounge, touted for an all-female staff of servers and DJs.

About Seen on the Scene
Call it bar hopping by proxy: Each week we send our photographers into the thick of the action to capture the latest openings and the most buzzed-about events; then, on Mondays, we post the photos here, where you can view them without getting elbowed in the side or having a drink spilled down your pants. You’re welcome. And for those who do run into our photographers out and about, be sure to smile for the camera.
