Euro-Trash Themed Party, Need Tons Of Ideas Before Aug 30th

Alright, so my friends and I are throwing a large themed party 60sh people are expected to come, maintaining a 40 person mass for most of the night. We have about a 280 dollar budget, needless to say most of that money will go towards cheap booze.

All we really know right now is that we want a bar with a menu. The menu should have lots of drinks but we want to buy deceptively few types of alcohol, a few weird ones is ok. Chasers/ mixers also need to be cheapish, but we can cut costs by raiding our respective fridges. We also know we are making a large amount of sangria with about 4 jugs of carlo rossi red wine.

So heres the expense you can chalk off:
1. keg of cheap beer ~60 dollars
2. 4 jugs of cheap wine~40 dollars
3. fruit ~10 dollars

So heres where you come in: what do we do with the rest of our 170 dollars. Keep in mind we plan to buy the cheapest of handles. We need suggestions in the following categories:

1. general alochol shopping list- (what have you run out of during your parties?) what do people drink when they can order whatever
2. specialty drinks/ shooters with euro club theme- (rememebr try to minimize weird alcohols)
3. decorations, lighting.... ????- how do we transform a large house in NW d.c. into a euro club atmosphere. Here is where we are really hurting for help. We have almost no good ideas except that we need lights dimmed and lots of black. We are resourceful people and may be able to pull off good ideas without having to dip into our limited purse.
4. must haves on the music list
5. any other touches, caveats or wisdom you can impart
