Just had cause to be reminded of one more LA peculiarity, “afterparties”. It was totally normal, might even be a planned & scheduled thing to leave one event and go to another that almost might be an unwinding from that one, event 1’s planners are totally not responsible for and can now enjoy, etc.
Whereas basically anywhere else (not Vegas or the Indio Valley, party-wise they’re part of Greater LA) “wow this party’s winding down, better ask everyone if they know of any other parties or bars people are going to” is actually a kinda pathetic alcoholic thing to think
