Great news on the DJ front.
I auditioned for a new club out in Gwinnett/Duluth called The Bunker. (Located across the way from Wild Bill's - 2075 Market St Duluth, GA 30096 between The Shoe Carnival and a Vietnamese Resteraunt facing The Longhorn steakhouse and Barnacle's.) This place looks nice too. The entire club is lit up in blacklight reactive graffiti everywhere...on the walls, the tables, the floors, on and even the DJ booth. The dancefloor is sectioned off by chainlink fence - but don't let that fool you. The Bunker is indeed PLUSH and well thought out from top to bottom. I nailed the audition with flying colors. Two really proud moments during the audition was 1) when I saw the club owner breaking out the glowsticks and dancing to what I played, I knew I had the job...and 2) I overloaded the sound system twice to where there was no sound coming out of the speakers at all! =)
Tuesday night I get a call from Chris, the manager at The Bunker saying he wants me to come play Wednesday night @ 10pm. Naturally, I accepted. After my set, the club owner, Richard pulls me aside and tells me he wants me to play at The Bunker more because even though he had been told I was a good DJ through other people, he had no idea I was this impressive. He said he likes the way I play with the mood of the music and toy with the tempo throughout my set.
So it's official y'all.
I am now the new resident at The Bunker in front of The Gwinnett Place Mall in Duluth, GA EVERY Wednesday and the 2nd and Last Saturdays of the month! cha-CHING! If you want on my personal VIP guestlist at the club, let me know ahead of time and I will see what I can do. I'll be back to play again this coming Wednesday and Saturday Jan 28th.
The best part of this is that Richard plans to open 2 more clubs in the same area. So what does this mean? It means that I'll be playing at all three spots at least three nights a week! I can't wait. =)
