This Friday I've been added to the lineup of DJs for Strangelove for a multitude of reasons that would probably be completely uninteresting to anyone not involved in the club. Well, except for the possibility that Tomas' wife will give go into labor, which is pretty exciting. But the other reasons are boring, mostly involving hand injuries and a ( Read more... )

So tonight was fun. A mixed crowd, never super busy, but fun. Thanks to all the DJ's who spun, and to everyone who helped out. No thanks at ALL to the lame new cd decks that hate most burned cd's and a great many actual non-burned cd's. I am especially irritated since they hated the majority of my stuff and therefore I couldn't play half of what I ( Read more... )

I just wrote a whole post about the night. It was detailed, it was moving, it was poignant. It was, in a word, awesome. Somehow, my massive meaty hands hit the button that makes this internet thingy go backwards and I lost my entry. LJ's ever-so-helpful 'Autosaved Draft' function did indeed 'auto-save' part of the entry. Which part ( Read more... )

It was a good night. Good turnout, no angst. I only fucked up once but no one heard it, so no biggie. First set was pretty much only stuff I wanted to hear, since I made a promise to myself that at least during the first forty five minutes, I wouldn't pander. After that, however, it was all pandering, all the time. OK, not really, but I did play ' ( Read more... )

Last night was a pretty big success, as Daniel mentioned in his journal, the crowd just keeps getting bigger. Unfortunately they are also getting drunker. They are hiking their skirts up and grinding on non-lesbians, hanging around and harassing the DJ's, insulting the music we play and just generally becoming ornery and unpleasant. Hopefully it ( Read more... )

Great night, awesome turn-out, weird-ass crowd. Would dance to Skinny Puppy, OMD, Phil Collins or Sheryl Crow (someone seriously requested Sheryl Crow!!!) but not 'When Doves Cry' or 'John The Revelator' which completely killed the floor!!! Surely a sign of the encroaching apocalypse. Anyway, thank you to everyone who came out! And to Chas and Alex ( Read more... )

This was unequivocally the biggest Obscure Curio yet. Everyone seemed to have a great time. Daniel (D.O.M.G) spun awesome, Cure-heavy sets. I did my part, spinning a hell of a lot more Cure than I normally would. Lots of cool people came out such as Spike, Christie, Starr, Nathan, Chas, Jason, Leggy and Jon (who I finally got to meet after having ( Read more... )

For those who aren't on Daniel's f!list, here's what was played last night;

( Die Another Day, December 30th, 2005 )

So Die Another Day was a HUGE success!!! The place was packed!!! So many people! All of the DJ's played awesome sets! If I had been dancing the whole night I would be dead from exhaustion right now. I don't have the setlists (nullzeit will post them soon I'm sure,) but rest assured that many great songs got played. I am so pleased. Thank you to everyone ( Read more... )
