made it back to madison at around 5.....your coffee didn't do much rjt but i made back alright one thing i learned last night.......i need to become comfortable mixing totally in the headphones. for the first 2/3 of my set, the monitors were way up on the walls, so i'd cue up the track and start to bring it in and the beats would be off, so i'd try to correct still using the headphones and it led to pretty much all botched transitions due to the delay until the monitors were closer and pointed at me i thought i was just having a bad night at first, but then i'd beatmatch the cue track spot-on using the monitors, and then i'd check both tracks in the headphones, and they would be off! so DJs, if you are like me and learned to mix using monitors and never had to mix totally using your headphones, i suggest you learn (if you want to spin out and avoid monitor setups not to your liking). but after that was all worked out, i had a great time throwing down tracks that i haven't played in a long time....it was a blast.

rjt's set was great....tight transitions and dope tracks....not surprising that we found out last night that he is officially a RISING STAR now. (provide more details rob!)

thanks to rob for inviting me up to spin and introducing me to his class friends.....it was a great time getting "CRUNK" in the studio i'm looking forward to next time...

ROFL!

Lucas it makes me incredibly happy to see that you made it home safe and sound, I'm sorry the coffee didn't help as much as I'd hoped it would!

As far as Lucas' set goes, I'm listening to it right now, and enjoying i thoroughly, so Lucas I'll send you a copy (Or post it online and just give you the URL) and you can let me know what you think in hindsight!

The monitor situation is something I guess over the years I've gotten used to. As far as my set goes, I feel like I had a pretty good night until about the last half hour of my set where I crossed theline between "Had just enough beers to mix fluidly" to "Holy Shit! You mean you brought a bottle of wine to the studio, AWESOME!" And proceeded to forget I was using the rotaries to cue down, thus leaving the faders up, and providing some exceptionally interesting sounding samples in the middle of tracks! But meh, who cares, because I ahd a fucking blast last night.

Lucas dude, you are definitely ALWAYS welcome in Stevens Point my man, next time you're crashing on the couch though Seriously though, I really had a good time, and I can't wait to have more TA's up to hit the decks on 90FM

Edit: BTW, I also had a voice mailbox/email box full of feedback, mostly on Lucas' set (Early set = more people listening on Friday, Late Set = People at bars... generally), and people were loving the dark progressive. It was, according to on R. Lee on the UWSP campus:

Just what I needed to hear to chill out, blaze up, and hang with the homies til heading to the bar


And so on

Now as far as the "Rising Stars" comment goes... well if you all don't have anything going on on May 1, it might be fun to check out that program on ETN... Stay Chooned...

Lucas, thanks again a million, and to all who tuned in thank you as well from the bottom of my heart.

Peace, Cheers,

RJT
