Fatback’s 3rd Anniversary is tomorrow night at Liv (RSVP on that Facebook) and it’s lining up to be a night that future generations will boast of around their camp fires and in their civic halls. “Those brave porkers,” they’ll say, “were made of the sternest stuff.”

So, given the shadow of our forefathers and the judgement of history, here are a couple tips for the real pros, the first on the floor, last out the door, sweat hogs.

1. Extra Room: We’ll be taking over the ground floor space at Hominy with an extra soundsystem and a few ground-floor-only surprises. Definitely check it out. Also, if things get really hectic, we’ll take over the Caverns at 12:00 and open up a third floor. That’s 1-2 extra bars, kid.

2. Still, Arrive Early: Don’t be a wallflower, be a solid gold love pump! Beat those lines! Get the best costume pieces! Hide your coat somewhere nice! Seriously, come early.

3. Costumes: The Pig loves people who’ll rock a seasonally-inappropriate costume. Halloween? Amateur night. The real pros know how to dress as a cocktail weenie in mid-January. Show us what you’re made of. Or just rock a pig hat, or a Butt Rub tshirt. It’s all good.

4. No Parking (On the Dancefloor).

5. Twitter: Follow us on Twitter, we’re FatbackDC. If you do the hashtag, #fatbackdc.
