Haha, thanks Duncs. Forgotten I'd said all that. 
But seriously, Zabiela was fucking awesome. I'm not a DJ, and I'm usually not that great at picking technique, but my god can that boy play. I was standing there about 10 metres from the booth, just watching him do his stuff (he permanently had a groop of chin-strokers standing at the booth and watching him so it was pretty hard to get a decent view sometimes) and I was blown away. I kept on trying to tell anyone who had the misfortune of standing by me, "MAN THAT'S TWO RECORDS PLAYING AT ONCE. ALL THE FX ARE HIS DOING. DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS?" so I guess it might be wise to cut back on the Stella next time (especially at seven bucks a bottle). 
Very impressed with JZ as a person as well. We went to watch Jono Fernandez in the side-room and he just wanders in and starts millng with us plebs. Shook his hand, said something gushing about what a bloody good DJ he was and he was good enough to smile and nod rather than run away (said something similar to Luke Chable about his production skills and he just like: "Um, yeah. So anyway, Virginia...." ). Also bought him a beer but he said he didn't drink, so I had to endure the trauma of drinking them both in the end.... 
And for some stupid reason we decided it would be a good idea to go to the club Evolution afterparty as well (man was that a mistake - you know you're in trouble when you're the seediest looking person at a Monday morning afterparty). But even though it was a bit of a blur in parts, it was a top a night. Great meeting Virginia, Duncan, Gerry and Jules (top cameo mate ) and hopefully we'll be able to do it again soon (anyone for Stacy Pullen on the 25th?  ).
