Back to the beginning......

2 years ago I was looking for something to do and decided to take a road trip to the tidewater area to attend a bbq. While I was I met the DJ and the rest as "they" say 'is history......'

This year I attended that same bbq to DJ it!!!



What is normally a 3 hour trip turned into a 7 hour trip because of traffic.
The bbq that was supposed to start at 4pm but started at 7 cause of 'cp time'
and lets just say ..... keeping people on the dance floor isn't my forte'

I decided to play 'clap back' by Ja Rule and got boo'ed...... but it was all in fun. and at one point I accidently loaded another song on to my virtual deck while another song was already playing causing there to be a moment of silence (and not for prayer purposes)

So after a good 15 minutes of mixing/embaraassing myself I sat my narrow behind down and stayed away from the DJ equipment and just took notes.

Moral of the story is: Wait till everyone's alcohol kicks in before I start DJ'ing

On a side note: I got a new laptop that is faster, and more robust then the one I have now. So we'll see how that works out.

Another Notch



Celebrating a 30th birthday would not be complete with out music and dancing with good friends. That's where my services come in. With a carefully crafted playlist (best use of five minutes of my life that I'll never get back) and over a year of dilligence and skills (and/or boredom and money) The night was a sucess!!! In more ways then one!

Business cards strategically placed in front of the laptop for easy acess.
Received much appreciated support and encouragement from my mentor, The DM2 Masta himself DJ Point n Click "the only DJ literally on the one's and two's"
And I'd also like to "shout out" the company who makes technics for crafting such lovely (and heavy) speakers.



Next stop on the road to DJ'dom Norfolk, Va!
