I Did It!

no more DJ competitions for me - i landed my first paying gig!!

the guy is putting me in a small club first of all in an opening slot - if that goes well i get the to headline a bigger club (1500-2000)

the small club im being tried in firstly is a funky house joint. im mostly a trance DJ with very little knowledge of the house scene. could ya please recommend a few tracks i could buy (nothing too dance floory as it is just a warmup!) - i'll be hunting the record shops 2moro but i at least need to know wat to look for ya know!

Where abouts you playing?

And what club would you be headlining?

Fair play though, it's fookin hard getting your foot in the door. Once you do though, and you keep up a good enough performance. You're laughing for a little while.

Also where abouts d'you shop for your trance vinyl? That is if you're around dublin..

i know the feeling, i played my first openin gig with a freind, then we played an outdoor part for 7, 8 hundred people.. you have to start small. if i was still in peru, im sure id be playing much bigger venues as well..

good on ya!
