With much loved “ultralounge” Pangea closing, famed Austin impresario Michael Ault is trading in wildebeest-penis afrodisiacs for a new Chris Claremont-era X-Men themed club called “The Pheonix.”

But the true visionary next step in Austin nightlife is to take the club back to the streets. After the Pheonix, his next venture “The Lot” (pictured above), will forever change the face of drinking beer in a parking lot.

Features include comfortable “curb” seating and a gravel VIP area.

We’re sending this guy down from the orbiting SMJ Battlestation to break ground on our towering terrestrial docking station today. It’s going to be centrally located downtown and the ground floor storefront will maintain a number of overpriced dining establishments as well as the SMJ curiosities shop. We are interested to know if the assholes in your carpool will notice Devastator getting serious shit done down there, or if they’ll just be whining about who’s actually going to come to Austin to live in our enormous awesome building.

p.s. fuck valentines day and presidents’ day, again, for good measure.
