Let’s be honest, it kind of sucks to be single on Valentine’s Day. Keep it BASIC and embrace the holiday in East Village at the second annual “Love Sucks” party at BASIC Urban Kitchen and Bar.

This Valentine’s night, grab all your best friends and head to the 5,000 square-foot warehouse style bar with brick walls, garage doors, concrete floors, a shag carpet made of old rubber tires, and an oversized purple pool table. Confirm your feelings of single-life satisfaction in the restaurant area by filling up with the highlight of Basic's menu: a simple East-Coast inspired thin-crust oven baked pizza. Let your single status hang loose while sipping on no-nonsense upscale drinks at the bar; celebrate your independence on the dance floor; and mingle among the company of other anti-Valentine’s Day locals in the posh yet unpretentious lounge area.

Love may suck, but Valentine’s night doesn’t have to – celebrate singledom at BASIC in East Village on Saturday, February 14, 2009.
