that was her 1st episode ever...just no way of knowing i guess :?

yer, i had that happen once while djing, and once while crossing the road... dude just collapsed and starts fitting right in front of me in traffic. Both times the folk had no history of epilepsy... Poor sods.

ALSO:

^great work SOL. You did everything right mate. In the trade we call that prick who hassled you one of two things

1) a "drunkle"... meaning prick.

2) a "wannabe" meaning a prick who has tried DJing himself once or twice

Anditz: falling out with the soundman: dangerous business that mate, like falling out with a traffic cop or any other little hitler. It's a horrid thing but unfortunately it does no good to bite the hand that feeds us. The soundman can ruin your gig in very subtle ways. Hope it works out for you.

Mitch, and everyone else who i missed: ADJF boys FTW.

back from my gig, and am tired as fuck but ill post now before i forget.

got there at 6:30, meet the parents, talked, blah, blah etc. they showed me where i was playing and was likeee sicccck coz there was a mad view overlooking the pool and u can see the blue mountains in the distance and stuff.

6:35: start setting my gear up, got it up and running by 7 and start playing prog house, and like dirtyloud's less intense tracks etc.

7:30: some chick was like "playyyy LMFAO!!!!!!!" and i'm like nah, ill wait till it gets dark and ill get my lights cranking, but i started to play more mainstream stuff but of the more chilled kind.

8:15: this is when it got dark, so i got my lights going and played champagne showers then played mainstream bangers till bout around 10

10:00: stopped playing music, coz they sung happy birthday and brought out cake and whatnot, had a bit of a break and talked.

10:15: more mainstream/bangers etc.

11:00: by this time, a fair few people had left to go home, so the dance floor was pretty much empty, so i chuck on hobberz latest mix and its still empty :teef:

11:30: hobberz mix ends so i start mixing some more and few people dance one last time.

12:15: the power randomly goes out so the music/lights stop, takes like 5mins to get going then i start playing more my kind of music but only quietly.

12:30: finish playing, start packing up, say goodbye etc.

1:00: drive home

2:00: have shower

2:30: finish typing this

heaps fun night tho, and i got 50 more than i expected so yay :D

song of the night = Duck Sauce - Big Bad wolf (Dada Life Remix)! soooooooo fun to mix

Got fucked around immensely last night, first bloke on played for 10 minutes extra because the blokes after him initially said they wouldnt turn up, yet they turned 10 minutes late, and instead of playing their 40 minutes they were allocated, they decided to play for an hour instead, which fucked up everyone else after. I let one of my mates take my set time cos he couldnt stick around, so when the blokes after me turned up and i told them whats going on, they kicked up a big storm, had a whinge and i got forced to let them play before me aswell, so instead of playing at 11:40, here I am starting at 1 oclock, only getting half an hour because we have to fit in 2 guys after me, shits fucked.

Ok, thursday afternoon I got a call from a mate to come in an play 9-10 in which was pretty much my first "PROPER" club gig. All went pretty well, got pretty smashed and had a ball. Hopefully getting a few more sets here in there when he has time slots free.

Also dropped a demo off to another club that same night, hopefully if its good enough I will be in the running for an opening set to support "The Potbellez".

Saturday night I scored a residency at a new little bar/club, so will be playing Friday and Saturday nights. Finally Im getting my name out there :)
