When you walk into Soaked you can expect to dance to some amazing music by DJ Ted Bishop Nieves and see some drag numbers performed by Viva Vidalia and Misty Mountains Davenport. What does a typical Soaked party involve? We thought it was time to bring back something old with a new twist in order to reinvent a declining scene. Two and a half years strong, thanks to Rockbar NYC and the Soaked staff. It all started back in the days of Limelight, Webster Hall, and Club USA. I have been working in the club industry for over 20 years. My name is J.Rios, I’m of Puerto Rican decent, a native New Yorker and a professional artist/make-up artist. So when my best friend J.Rios and myself talked about what we wanted to do to change things up, Soaked was born! While working with these places I realized that I wanted to be more involved with nightlife scene and to bring something that was different to a scene that had a lot of the same parties. I started in the club scene about 8 years ago while working with the Furball Party at various places such as XL lounge, Space Ibiza, Santos House, Stage 48, Cielo and The Copacabana. I am also a special organizer for the NYC Veterans Day parade, an active member of The American Legion Post 1291 and an activist for current active duty military and veterans needs and causes. I’m a native New Yorker and a licensed hair stylist.
