80 hour paychecks. not a minute more or less.
still doing tuesday nights at the red sea. its my evening of fun...i barely even party on weekends anymore. toby handed the upstairs over to me so i now can book whoever i want to play each week. and pretty much have a weekly residency in the middle of the loop locked in...as long as we can have tuesday nights, i have a GREAT OPPORTUNITY in my hands to start throwing live beats ASAP upstairs and hopefully get noticed. it will be fun...toby wants to throw live beats too. perhaps we could reform the whole approach of the evening? dunno. here's teh flyer0rz.
time for a nap. HOOOOORAY FOR DAYS OFF. havent had one of these in weeks.
